Kerwin Rolland is an artist, composer, engineer, and performer, whose work moves between music, sound art, knowledge, and visual culture. Blending artistic experimentation with scientific inquiry, he creates poetic experiences that explore resonance, perception, architecture, and the natural world.
His work has been presented internationally at venues including the Palais de Tokyo, LAC Lugano, Teatro San Martín, the Akademie der Künste, and the Villa Medici. Since 2014, he has collaborated with artist Dominique Blais on a range of visual and sound-based projects, and since 2016 has performed regularly with harpist Hélène Breschand.
A frequent collaborator across the fields of visual art, performance, film, architecture, and literature, he has worked with institutions including the Centre National des Arts Plastiques, the Berliner Philharmoniker, the Lafayette Anticipations Foundation, and the National Schools of Architecture of Paris-Malaquais and Versailles.

Omid Asgari siège au Comité scientifique et culturel du musée MACS MTO à Chatou, où il travaille également en tant que consultant en son. Ces dernières années, il a largement contribué au développement du patrimoine culturel immatériel au sein des espaces muséaux en dirigeant des projets multimédias, en concevant et mettant en œuvre des médiations sonores, ainsi qu’en créant des programmes communautaires.
Il est également co-directeur de MTO Zendeh Delan, un ensemble de musique soufie contemporaine et de Sama qui associe musique, poésie et thèmes spirituels. Fort d’une formation scientifique, ayant étudié la physique à l’université Queen Mary de Londres, il apporte à son travail dans les secteurs culturel et artistique à la fois une vision analytique et une sensibilité artistique.
A musician trained in the Persian Dastgah system—the traditional modal framework of Persian classical music—Omid is a santour (Persian hammered dulcimer) player who draws on this rich musical heritage while exploring the fusion of Persian and Western musical traditions, creating a distinctive and thoughtful artistic approach.
