3_works
This is a presentation of the six works composing Monkey_Party with some short video exrtaits.
Monkey_Arborescence : The structure of Monkey_Party is in motion: it is in perpetual transformation. The menus are randomly combined and assembled by the DVD player.
extract of menu 1
Monkey_Party is ‘automatic’ once it lets the DVD player choose the combination of images and sounds in a random manner. The player carries out a choice among several audio, video elements and text in order to assemble a single and unique works.
Monkey_Trap :
Homage to the ‘square-pixel’:
creation of shapes hypnotics and waves
sonic radio in motion.
The body gives the tool the desire to speak. Modification of the shape, color, and geometric positioning allows for a mosaic dance.
Trap is an abstract painting that transforms, evolves, and generates hypnotic shapes.
extract of Trap
The user can transform images and sounds with the help of the ‘angle’ and ‘audio’ buttons of the remote control.
Monkey_Brain :
‘a word spits an image’.
An association of sounds and texts is chosen by the DVD player. The direction is born out of this combination. Within an open space with room for imagination, words become mental images within a cinematographic sonic universe.
extract of Brain
The user can change the images, the sounds and the text with the ‘angle’, ‘audio’ and ‘Subtitle’ buttons.
Monkey_Drug :
Sliding formula of generated perceptions
through reception of environmental waves.
Drug is an altering representation of the exploration of the invisible, hertzian territories and other immaterial environments.
The wave is no longer a mere vehicle of transportation but actual matter. A form of matter that can be sculpted into shape.
extract of Drug
The user can modify the image and sounds with the help of the ‘angle’ and ‘audio’ buttons of the remote control.
Some works of Monkey_Party are « dynamic », and offers to the user the possibility to react to the images and sounds. It is thus up to the user to manipulate/transform what is being played out.
Monkey_Key :
escape the labyrinth. Walk through a universe deserted by sonic
corporal-sensorial frequencies.
An interactive stroll within a deconstructed space that transforms, dilates and twists itself without end.
One has to get lost, be found, an unwilling advance of desires and intuitions within this strange and desert land.
extract of Key :
This work is constructed like a game. The user reacts to the images with the help of the arrows (up, right, left) in order to move around.
Monkey_Club :
Disco-phonic recreation Of nude dancing.
Tactile discovery to « see » an anatomical transformation.
Stroke. Barely touching. Touch. Smell.
By using the remote control’s arrows, the image reveals itself.
The fragmented body recomposes itself though interaction.
Navigation, with the help of the remote control, composes a narrative and accompanies the transformation of this body and it’s identity.
extract of Club
The user navigates within the image through the help of arrows (up, down, right, left).
Monkey_Access :
Intuitive monkey_off visit. Users can navigate at their own pace within the creators’ protean universe.
The space is in motion. The elements are assembled and undone. In the image of an uncertain memory, ACCESS retraces the events for which the DVD Monkey_Party was born.
ACCESS is a process that interconnects diverse elements, creating a unique universe that is recomposed without end.
ACCESS puts into play and formalizes memory [our memory] of the ‘Monkey_Party’ event.
Within this space of time gone by, we need to find, play and participate with the help of the remote control in order to penetrate within this fragmented universe and even recompose them.
extract of Access
The user reacts in permanence through the help of arrows (up, down, right, left) and the ‘enter’ button.
