Think Tank de la nuit was created by BOA in 2019.

The idea is to gather around a table (a low one if possible) people who are interested in the world of nightlife, but who are not directly involved in it. Philosophers, artists, musicians, or players on the architectural scene, for example.

As few people as possible, to avoid verbal cacophony. The idea, then, is for ideas to emerge and be discussed to evoke our times, what we experience and feel when we simply evoke the night.

There's no minimum or time limit. We'll have plenty to eat, drink and smoke if necessary.

Sound recording only. No images.

SOIREE BOA 10-10 NIGHT CALL :

The entire studio was taken over by unique sound and visual installations by BOA.

The Night Call was punctuated by special programming:

- A 637@boa installation in the heart of the workshop to mark the 637 creations we've had the pleasure of offering around the world.

- An electro-acoustic performance orchestrated by Flore Silly

and Florian Pascal, Nathalie Ong and Patrick Reybaud.
