I'm a multidisciplinary artist who uses new technologies as a creative tool. This enables me to create living, participatory works that are co-constructed with the audience. More specifically, the works I create are based on the real-time use of the public's cerebral or bodily data to create, control or modify the work. Through these works, I seek to establish a dialogue with the audience, going beyond the passive posture in which they usually find themselves, and offering them the chance to make the work their own by actively participating in it.
I started out as a composer for the 'Faim-de-Siècle' collective. M.A.O. led me to create interactive sound installations and later interactive video installations. I've been working in the field of Brain Art for around 10 years. In 2017, with sleep artist Virgile Novarina, we presented "La Bulle Paradoxale" which is the first work using live sleep brain waves. Then, in 2018, I created 'Sleep in the City', which is also a first in the use of brainwaves with the Internet. In fact, I already have three Brain art projects to my name. My current project, Reciprocal Brains, is a continuation of my practice and approach: Reciprocal Brains
Throughout my career, I've always mixed artistic practice with teaching.
I have taught my artistic practice in various teaching and training institutions. For three years I was involved in video and sound theatre workshops at the Maison du Geste et de l'Image (City of Paris). The MGI works with general and technical secondary schools in the Île de France region to raise awareness of theatre, dance and image. The workshops are set up in close collaboration with the teachers.
For ten years, I was a lecturer and teacher at the University of Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée (France). I taught, among other things, the creation and design of interactive installations, multimedia aesthetics and computer-assisted sound and visual design to undergraduate and postgraduate students and multimedia engineers. Whether in lectures or tutorials, my work is based on an ongoing exchange with students. Their participation in the learning-transmission process is essential.
