About me
I was born in Paris in 1973, and live in Prague since 2000. As artist I developed various interdisciplinary projects where meet virtual and real environments. I founded the association LIBAT (Hybrid laboratory for Arts and new technologies) in November 2002. For several years, I'm developing various artistic and cultural projects with, as scour objective the exploration of the complex Art-science-news technologies of information. I'm interested in systems' architecture and in particular interactive multimedia storytelling in 3D shared environments. My artistic and technological culture evolved as a trans-disciplinary walk-through , exploring contemporary languages and fields like cinema, video, scenography, sound, robotic or data processing, using sensors' systems like motion capture to connect performers,(dancers, actors, public...) within 3D digital spaces. I'm directing LIBAT since 2002 and I'm leading the interactive media department of Prague College since 2006, where I develop with our students and teachers a creative approach to interactive media and fine art, exploring animation techniques, 3D, web, film, sound, interface design and more...
