Ouvrage

In this household goods store, ideas are sold. A series of improbable moments, of playing in the kitchen with one’s feet, one’s hands, one’s mouth and the radio.

Sounds were filmed in units and then assembled to create a score. Each section of the sound was scripted so that the visuals reflect what emerges from the musical form. Over top of that, a few supplementary motifs are invited along to create a kind of video clip.

Small interludes depicting a range of landscapes in which micro events occur naturally or are prompted during filming or editing. These videographic postcards were gathered in Marseille and its surrounding areas.  

A short anti-MTV video clip. It is meant to make you daydream while not much is happening in the video except a pattern or two. Song by Jackson Browne recorded by Nico.

A short anti-MTV video clip. It can make you see things in your mind while nothing is happening, except a pattern or two.

The same instrument plays the same note using various techniques. This is repeated simultaneously in an exponential manner (from 4 to 16 up until 67108864) by each time adding, either negatively or positively, 20% of the duration to change the note pitch. Isabelle Bozzini on the cello.

A reduction and selection among the nine sequences created for the installation HIT to draw the best from them in a form more suited to a linear reading. In the first of the five tableaux, with animation, we play with movement in the manner of a musician, respecting the phrasing so as to prolong the gesture. In the next, we play with superposition, but frontally, in order to create a sort of six-armed musician. In the middle, a solo, on three instruments activated by fifteen drummers. In the last two tableaux, a single musician, first with a single tom that has lost its gravity, then with the whole instrument become a monument.
