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.

INJECT VERSION 2.0

INJECT NATIONAL TAIWAN MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS

after 90 minutes waiting _ finally Injected

I am in the technical preparation for my Asia Tour. I will leave thursday at 3am. ouf !  _  I am very excited about presenting INJECT in Asia _ After the warm reception I received in South America, I’m very curious about the Asian audience.

By the Way _ !  The National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts ask to me to prepare une version censurée de INJECT _ because it will be presented outside of the museum. So I tried to replace some explicit scenes. _ I will try keeping the spirit of the performance.

I would like to thank’s all the people at the workshop, it will be a 4 hours non stop of good questions and discussions.

Some picts from Monte Video, Uruguay. Thank’s to Martin to invite me at this beautifull theatro SOLIS. It was the first time this kind of performance was presented at this theater _ it was a great night. Thank’s also to Agnaël to translate my workshop.

There is some picts from INJECT for 6 screens that I presented at Bains Numériques after Peter Greenaway ( June 6th _ Enghein Les Bains, France )

After testing INJECT at Elektra, I reworked some dynamik aspects that will be part of my performance at Mutek at the Monument National may 27 2010. See you there !!!

I’m now working on my new performance INJECT, that will presented at MUTEK next month. And to test it before I will be at ElektraMontreal tomorrow. Thank’s to Alain Thibault to let me present it in a kind of private perfo.

Some picts from Inject Shooting

Between october to december 2008, I work on developping the shooting of my next performance project : INJECT. All the concept is about water and oxygen. The good think is that I finally found a friend of me ( idea came from sophie ) that want to participate and accept to be in a water cistern for 7 days.
