DIKTAT est un quartet qui dans ses improvisations electro-acoustiques recherche la confrontation de la voix de la contrebasse (et d'autres instruments acoustiques) avec un flux sonore dynamique créé par des joueurs de dictaphones, qui manipulent une grande variétés de sons sur cassettes, trouvées ou enregistrées dans les rues de nos villes.
DIKTAT est Jean Bordé - contrebasse, Rébus - dictaphones, Har$ - dictaphones, Rinus van Alebeek - dictaphones
