Tremorrag(Pascal Battus, Angie Eng) explores the subtlety of movement and the poetics of sound and image. This audio-visual duo focuses on the concept of our ability to visualize and hear movement by combining live ink drawing and digital design. Interactive sound/video effects are as direct as the pick up mics and micro cameras attached to their pen and hands. Their animations resemble artists (with a twitch): Len Lye, Henri Michaux or Cy Twombly .
The collaboration was inspire...

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'...

Mathematics are often found behind digital artworks, through softwares such as Pure Data or Processing that incorporate powerful sound and image processing functions.
In this presentation, Emmanuel Ferrand will pay tribute to the “success” of mathematics, which allows not scientifically trained artists to appropriate innovative tools or develop their own.
But Emmanuel will go beyond redu...

Inspired by the philosophy put forth by Roth, Eyebeam hosted a panel on Thursday April 4 from 7:00pm–8:30pm called "Artists as Hackers". The discussion brought toge...
