CIMATICS / BRUXELLES 28.11.09

November 30th, 2009

J’ai donc présenté hier INJECT V.02 aux Brigittimes à Bruxelles dans le cadre de Cimatics2009. Les Brigittimes se définit Centre d’art du mouvement et de la voix. Architecturalement, c’est un lieu assez unique. L’ancienne Chapelle des Brigittines – église baroque du XVIIè siècle – jusqu’il y a peu, lieu principal d’activité et de représentations, est aujourd’hui dotée d’une extension, une jumelle, Chapelle contemporaine, inaugurée les 20 et 21 août 2007. L’année 2008 verra également l’achèvement des travaux de construction d’un bâtiment voisin qui comprendra 6 ateliers/logements pour artistes ainsi que d’un jardin artistique et pédagogique, tous deux, aussi gérés par Les Brigittines. Malgré sa hauteur, l’acoustique de la chapelle est assez surprenante. C’est probablement dû à son plafond construit en pièces de bois.

Cimatics m’a fourni des techniciens audio et vidéo passinnés et hyper professionnels, nous avons ensemble pris le temps ( grand luxe ) de bien sculter l’espace en quadraphonie.

November 25th, 2009

30 minutes avant le début de ma perfo au Musée National de Taiwan_un problème majeur d’alimentation électrique a complètement bousillé un de mes MacBookPro. Rendant impossible de débuter la performance. Grâce au secours d’un des wiz assis dans l’audience :::::: [ qui a bien voulu me prêter son Mac ] , j’ai pu après 90 minutes de retard présenter enfin INJECT. Le public a été d’une patience remarquable _ il faisait froid _ et ils ont attendu assis dans le gazon.

I am now in Taichung, I have 3 days free before my perfo. I went _ with my sister and 2 nice volunteers from the museum _ at a very beautifull tea house. We learn how to serve tea. Aussi nous avons été à Lukang, visiter la vieille ville et des temples boudhistes + taoïstes. Today, it was scooter day in the Taichung city _ we take a walk in the central parc and eating some famous dumplings _ cheaper cheaper.

Taipei Inject Perfo

November 17th, 2009

Just before leaving for Taichung, I want to share some picts of some Taipei friends from the organisation at the university. Yesterday, it was sold out for Inject perfo, sorry for the 100 people that can’t enter in the room… maybe they can see it in Taichung.

Longshan temple_Taipei

November 15th, 2009

Now in Taipei, I have 2 days before the Inject performance. I went today to Longshan Temple. C’est toujours des moments très touchants de voir tous ces gens de tous âge offrir des offrandes et se receuillir enveloppés d’une odeur intense d’encens.
