A software generates landscapes of urban destruction that will be printed. The printing process uses a former HP plotter and for a unique, irregular and analog rendering. Take control of your city, transform and destroy it as you wish!

Who are you? Can you tell us in a few words what
you have been doing these last few years?
It’s difficult to predict what Internet will become. Most of the predictions have proven false, perhaps because the time frame they’re based on have been rendered obsolete by the net.

Dislocation II is a series using several mediums. It portrays office furnitures in different states of decay. The dislocated furnitures are created with the same computer files that are translated by synthetic processes and fast prototyping. This series is inspired by the increasing aestheticization of destruction in the media. It questions the relation between a form and a matter. When does a destructed object become unreco...

* Dance with me is made of 157 videos taken from Youtube. Every video shows a young American woman interpreting the same R’n’B choregraphy. If a visitor has a MP3 player, he can connect it to the set up. The young women then start to dance on the selected music and follow exactly its rhythm and volume intensity.
"Dance with Me" and "Dance with us" will be exhibited on the VIA Festiva...

The scene, already employed in Possibles Bodies (2002), is connected to the American Stock Exchange in real time. Fred Astaire dances to the rhythm of the economy: the more volatile the tradings, the more fluid the movements.
"Dance with Me" and "Dance with us," will be exhibited on the VIA Festivals in Maubeuge (02-14/03) and at the EXIT Festival in Créteil (18 - 28/03).

* In a city, cars roll, stop, slow down. There are accidents and
road work. In this city, there is a man and a woman who have never met,
who will fall in love, will separate, will find each other again. They
speak endlessly of what should continue and what should end. What they
say is the exact transla...

About the installation:

This is all about diverting its common use, the identification, and coming up with an unpredictable transformation. An interactive installation enables the visitor to scan his fingerprint and to see its image evolve in time. The fingerprints drift and break like icebergs on an ocean lim...
