In year 2000 HenriPousseur was asked by Philippe Samyn, architect of Brussels who likes to work in association with other arts, to lend his support to the plan for the construction of a business complex by one of the most important building enterprises in the country.
HenriPousseur imagined then a connection between the time of Nivelles (a city 40 km south of Brussels, where this large project will be situated) and the time of the entire planet and the more or less metaphoric sonic and musical realities attached to it.
The first mix (and not re-mix) was a re-interpretation by HenriPousseur himself -- this laid the foundation stone of the edifice.
