I am showing two pieces at Le Cube: "Paroles de" and "Equations Lyriques"
"Paroles de" (Words of…) is an interactive work. It consists of six devices interacting through microphones.
It interacts with noise, with voices.
By producing noise, via the microphone, visitors generate words on the screens.
They can create or erase the various words.
The six devices are: words of serenity, revolt and doubt. Whimsical words, words of tenderness and words of distress
Each theme influences the lexical field of each screen, as well as the method of interaction.
I created "Équations Lyriques" (lyrical equations) in 2010. It is in direct line with "Paroles de"
I focused on a method of random word generation aimed at producing sentences.
I created two "linguistic engines" generating subjects, verbs and complements in a random way.
This work is not based on interaction. It is purely generative.
It perpetually generates streams of sentences displayed on two screens.
The piece is based on the theme of "oracles". It is a "horoscope".
Following a prediction mode, it deals with each star sign using the lexical field of horoscopes.
Visitors are presented with a prediction according to their individual star sign.
On the other screen is a "log book". It is generated day after day.
I used a lexical field relating to everyday life, to daily routines.
It produces an absurd collage of words belonging to this lexical field,
perpetually creating sentences on everyday life according to which day it is.
