Lettrism and post-war Avant-Gardes reflected the general insatisfaction of times but they still produced a fair amount of formidable works and legacy. The present conference aims at exploring these connections and dimensions, putting apparently distant groups and movements in unexpected harmony, a harmony made not of a continuous progress, but instead full of contradictions, setbacks and surprises.

Focusing on the interrogation practices in prisons generally known as the “Segredo” and in the unusual inquiry carried out by the Ministry of Justice into the activities of the police forces of the Portuguese fascist regime, which culminated in the trial of the PIDE/DGS (State Defence and International Police) in 1957, this paper tries to explore and foster public awareness on some practices and micro-techniques of such a repressive acoustic system. I examine the establishment and end results of the systematic use of acousmatic and acoustic violence and torture upon political prisoners, which aimed at breaking their sense of self and personality, their character and ideological beliefs, and undermining their lawful defense. That instilled in the victims (as well as their family and friends) an atmosphere of dread and terror that ultimately led them to suicide or facilitated their assassination during detention. In the 1950s, personal testimonies of victims and perpetrators, acousmatic and acoustic evidence, and the display of electronic devices that operated in the “Segredo” bring to light the importance of sound technology, and of the international markets that promoted and purveyed their top products to the regime.

Destacam-se a emergência da auralidade nas artes e na literatura, colocando em evidência a crescente importância do som e da música, domínios do imaterial e do invisível, na arte e na cultura. As histórias orais, a lírica pop e rock, os audiobooks, o cinema, as artes visuais, as radionovelas e os novos média impregnam o nosso quotidiano, a nossa herança afectiva e cultural, em que a narrativa, o som e as artes são os ingredientes primordiais. O nosso objectivo é explorar e encorajar a reflexão sobre esta relação especial entre os vários média no contexto alternativo da arte e da cultura norte-americanas, criando paralelismos com o legado europeu e o transnacional.

The legendary author – a North-American expatriate writer and composer, and a cult figure who, according to Norman Mailer “... let in the murder, the drugs, the incest, the death of the square, the end of civilization” – and his artistic output, are explored here by leading contemporary scholars. They seek alternative and multiple perspectives of his work through the dynamics of music and literature, avant-garde film and the No wave scene, torture studies and security, Islamic studies, modernism and surrealism. Following the international conference “Do You Bowles?” held in Lisbon, in 2010, which celebrated Paul Bowles’s 100th birthday, this collection shows how Bowles’s work engages creatively with his predecessors and a variety of perspectives, by rethinking modes of consciousness and of artistic and cross-cultural potential that still inspire todays’ artists and scholars, both as a writer as well as a composer.
