Composer & Transmedia Artist

About Eric Raynaud – Transmedia Art

I’m Eric Raynaud - Transmedia Artist based in France, also known as Fraction.

You could say, what is a transmedia artist? It means that I work with different materials and media around my main focus: sound and music.

My work explores the design of immersive and audiovisual experiences through generative systems, custom software, and spatial sound techniques. I create performances, installations, and experimental music that combine advanced sound design with visual structures and scenographic architectures.

My artistic practice often questions the boundaries between media, perception, and physical space. It navigates a landscape where image, sound, and space coexist in dynamic tension.

As Eric Raynaud - Transmedia Artist, I’ve presented work at festivals and institutions such as ShapePlatform, Mutek, SAT, Ircam, and Lunchmeat to name few. I collaborate regularly with researchers, engineers, and fellow artists to develop original immersive environments.

Under the name Fraction, I also lead workshops on immersive sound design, digital creation, and spatial audio for live performance and installation-based work.

I print and sell visual pieces, release original music, and explore noise-related aesthetics as an integral part of my creative language.

My work is grounded in experimentation, emotion, and the transformation of space through sound. I enjoy all forms of noise-related art in general — especially when they challenge the listener’s perception.
