ENTITES NUMERIQUE - VARIANTE x0.01z


Entites numerique_v1

Genre: Installation (3D-Animation and Laptop)
Year of Release: 2022
Where: Studio Otto, Paris (FR)

Description: I started the Entites numerique series because I asked myself how the computer and the Internet network perceive the outside world, how they interpret our human reality through the images, videos and texts we upload every day. With the help of increasingly (self-learning) artificial intelligences and algorithms that convert text input into images, among other things, one gets a rough idea of how this digital entity perceives. In this work, I went a step further and asked myself what organic life might look like that the computer network would create based on its interpretation of reality. With Entites numerique - variante x0.01z I show the first work of a series that presents possible answers. more

Exo_Cover

Genre: Audiovisual Live-Show
Year of Release: 2020
Length: 45 min

Description: For the Ambient-Music-Album Exo of the electronic music producer Bit-Tuner I produced a 3D-animated video. The music influenced by topics like the social and structural turmoils of the past years, the strong connections between communities and the sensation of being in an economic deadlock. For the visual narration I was asking myself: What is it that surrounds us, and how do we approach and interact with forces that are beyond our (apparent) reach? Looking for answers, I invited molecular objects which are propelled into a world similar to ours, where they operate, interact and affect their surroundings, creating and leaving behind something new and strange. Together Bit-Tuner and I produced an audiovisual live-show, in which Bit-Tuner and I can manipulate each medium during the show. The videos you see are extracts of that show which were released as music videos. more
