It has been his goal to employ field recordings to explore the history and aural infrastructure of cities, in particular his hometown Lagos, Nigeria. As a metropolis ultimately influenced by universal globalization processes, Lagos is a mélange of new and old, modern and archaic, first and third world. With an archival intent, he has recorded sounds at s...

Nonotak Studio, gathering Takami NAKAMOTO and Noémi SCHIPFER, is a Paris-based artistic collective. Their latest installation ISOTOPES v0.02, took place at the Mapping Festival 2013 in Geneva last week.
Basically, it consists in a trap of light. As a carnivorous plant, the light tries to catch the public attention, to seduce anyone passing by its rays, and to bring the public at the core of the installation. Then, the welcoming light evolves into aggressive, flashing and exhaustin...

Avec un cynisme subtil, mi-désinvolte, mi-engagé, Timothée Messeiller interroge en profondeur la démarche artistique au sens large, l' « être artiste », et par dessus tout, le « faire artiste ». Puisant aussi bien dans la culture populaire que dans l'histoire de l'art, Timothée Messeiller interroge donc les rapports de l'artiste au processus de production artistique et de fabrication. L'...

Reductionism in today’s art: how do artists question mathematics and genetics?
Mathematics are often found behind digital artworks, through softwares such as Pure Data or Processing that incorporate powerful sound and image processing functions.

But Emmanuel will go beyond redu...

Whether it’s videos or online pieces, small applications or sound installations, the artworks of Grégory Chatonsky are committed to revealing what we don’t see, or what we no longer see, to capture the traces and dig out the rhizomes, all the while being anchored in reality, in urban and human geography… Image, still or animated, and flow (technological, corporal or physical)...
