Man in|e|space.exe + ELEKTRA
Object + Body in a Technological Perspective
The performance man in |e|space.exe is invited for the opening of the international festival of digital arts Elektra. The performance has been created last november at Carré de Jalles. It's a further step of the questioning about the relationship between the electronic/ physical space and human motion which had been started with the creation man in |e|space.mov. This extended (.exe) version takes place in a strolling immersive space where the public walks around 4 screens representing the digital representation of the dansers mouvement. The creation confronts and combine the representation of human motion in physical and digital 3D space.
From May 9 to 14, ELEKTRA, the digital arts festival, will take over your senses, digitally. For this 7th edition, the event promises to astonish, both thanks to its bold digital arts works and gripping audiovisual performances. Over the course of six days, the festival proposes unusual, at times edgy experiences combining electronic music and visual creation. On the menu, laser and sound performances, interactive installations, dance and technology, electronic music and live performances. This counter-culture gathering blurs the frontiers of music, design, cinema, video, dance and architecture. Whereas ELEKTRA placed the term “audiovisual” on the map in 2005, this year will mark the exploration of the third dimension of audiovisual. The works selected place a common focus on the relationship between sound and image as it relates to the object and body in a technological perspective. Program; Events [PDF]
