DESCRIPTION:Walter Thompson et un orchestre de 17 étudiants de l’EPFL e
 t de l’UNIL\nMusic and cinema: the perfect marriage! This union is made 
 even more extraordinary when an “orchestra”\, comprised of 17 students
  from EPFL and UNIL\, improvises musical accompaniment to silent films or 
 a dialogue with visual artists.\n\nThis unique orchestra will be directed 
 by internationally renowned musician Walter Thompson\, inventor of soundpa
 inting (also known as the art of “real-time composition”). Created in
  1974 in Woodstock\, New York\, soundpainting is a sign language integrat
 ing nearly 1\,600 gestures. The language establishes communication betwee
 n a soundpainter\, or composer\, and performers who respond with improvise
 d artistic proposals.\n\nAt EPFL\, these dynamic and choreographic encount
 ers will reflect the different student associations – music\, dance\, th
 eatre\, cinema\, video – present on campus. They will also provide a uni
 que opportunity to strengthen the cohesion between different forms of arti
 stic expression.\n\nDon’t miss these two soundpainting events\, to be he
