Perpendiculaire au soleil (2022) by Valentine Cuny-Le Callet shows how a friendship develops from an exchange of letters between a French author and illustrator and a Florida prisoner sentenced to death. Using letters, drawings and prints, she not only provides deep insights into this extraordinary friendship, but also into the merciless prison system. The graphic novel will be presented by Virginie Dellenbach as part of the monthly book club at the Casino.

The Mnemozine workshop at Mudam offers a new look at a medium of the past: tape. Using tape recorders, sounds from the environment are first captured and then processed into unique magnetic sound compositions. The pioneering work of the British musician Delia Derbyshire (1937-2001), who is regarded as a pioneer of electronic music and revolutionised the BBC with her pioneering sounds, is also presented.
Participation fee: €10 (students: €5, culture pass: €1.50)
