LAb[au] is an artist group located in Brussels, Belgium. It has been founded with the aim to examine the influence of advanced technologies in the forms, methods and content of art. With a background in architecture their members and projects are concerned with the construct of ‘space’ and the way it can be planned, experienced and conceptualised in an information age.
LAb[au] est un groupe d’artistes basé a Bruxelles en Belgique. Ce groupe a été fondé en 1997 avec comme objectif d’examiner l’influence qu’exercent les nouvelles technologies sur les formes, les méthodes et les considérations relatives à l’Art. Avec des antécédents dans l’architecture, ses membres et ses projets se préoccupent de la notion d’espace et de la façon dont il peut être planifié, expérimenté et conceptualisé a l’âge de l’information.

All the kids of my generation who enjoyed the rules and games of mathematics remember the Victor Vasarely circles on the cover of their school books. Like a UFO landed in the south of France,on the top of a hill in Aix-En-Provence, the Victor Vasarely foundation has been rising since 1976, as an apparition of the future, a statement of 60's (not to say 20's) creativity... A pact between art and architecture.
Reactivated by the team of an ambitious but human sized electronic art fest...
The project takes as a starting point Brussels' 145 m high Dexia Tower, from which 4200 windows can be individually colour-enlightened turning the building into an architecture of light.
The enlightening of the tower is based on its architectural and urban characteristics, using parameters such as its orientation, volume, scale, propositions... to set up a spatial, temporal and luminous concept, which moreover allows people to directly interact with the tower.
From a specific desi...

The f5x5x5 sculpture is a kinetic and luminous framework conceived and realised by LAb[au]. In software development, a framework is a methodological tool based on re-usable chunks of code, code libraries or other software pieces to assist, to develop and to glue together the different components of a software project. In regards to the f5x5x... installation the term 'framework' refers to the installation's constituting elements, a raster of fix and kinetic aluminum frames.

Tessel is a kinetic installation investigating the perception of sound and space.
The installation is constituted of a suspended and articulated topography of 4 x 2 m, subdivided into forty triangles. Twelve of them are fitted with motors and eight are equipped with audio transducers, which transform the surface into a dynamic sonic space. The surface slowly modifies its shape, choreographing a dialogue between sculpture and sound while altering our perception. From Tinguely's poetic...
