Meta.IDs 04 - Workshop In Prague College 2008 # The opening
The purpose of META.ID-s IV was about to develop a 5 days in-situ workshop at Prague College. That workshop was produced by LIBAT - Hybrid Laboratory for Arts and New Technologies, and was directed by Pascal and Marie Silondi. We proposed a collaborative, sensible and inter-media experience, inviting artists like Christophe Saidi, students and technological experts like Quix to work in a collaborative environment. Interested in the use of new media and new technologies in arts and design, we presented technological principles like motion capture, MIDI protocols and sensors. We discussed and then created a hybrid environment, inter-connecting concepts, un-linear story-telling, aesthetics and technical know-how. We proposed an experimental space in between performance and installation, crossing media and techniques like videos, sounds, laser and 3D space, in a contemporary interactive and navigable mixed architecture open to audience. We thanks the Prague College and the students from Interactive Media, involved in all aspects of the workshop. Anastasia Chrysanthakopoulou, Jakub Grosz, Daniel Jerabek, Michael Kidane, Zaira Kulsariyeva, Jamba Mulimbwe, Simona Noera, Tomas Patlich, Jana Peknikova, Tihana Valent. Special Thanks to QUIX's team and Christophe Saidi for their participation, their know how, open mind, curiosity and creativity.

Tchouri - Surin # 08 in Gamerz 3 - Amber Festival - Istanbul .By P.Silondi
«Tchouri » in Romany became "Surin", synonym of knife in French argot. It's an interactive installation that plays on network with different Medias and languages; videos, sounds, virtual 3D spaces and objects. All those Medias are parts of a dynamic and audio visual 3D architecture, based on a mix in between the VRML (Virtual Reality Modelling Language) and the unreal tournament 3D engine. The visual and narrative rhythms are produced by the user punching a latex device with a knife. The purpose of « Tchouri » is to perforate a skin, entering a sensible membrane to navigate and interact within a dismembered digital body, creating atypical mixes of non linear digital sequences. The interface is based on the MIDI protocol that allowed the interconnection of hardwares and analogical sensors in a network. That system is transforming the data captured by using the knife. It's translating them and connecting them to the digital Medias and sources involved in the database, producing a distorted audio visual body finally projected in the real. - Jernej Cernalogar (Slovenia) : SoundScape design and Patch creation - Samuel Moucha (France) : Creation of the "surin". Special Thanks to Marie Silondi, Pamela Ranfaing, Jakub Kopecky and Jaroslav Bezdék for their creative help.
