My Words / Mes Mots
"Your gestures make my words meaningful".
My Words was an ongoing collaborative project which explored the relationship between gesture and meaning in interactive writing.
In this online creation, an interface gave access to several words, each word corresponding to a short interactive scene. In each scene, it was not so much the animation but rather the interaction with the reader, the reader’s gestures, that made the words meaningful. The reader could thus experiment with the meaning of the words, or at least the one given to the words by the authors.
This creation was also an invitation to participate. Through a dedicated tutorial and interface, everyone is able to contribute by adding new scenes. The world of My Words is an expanding world. My Words are everyone’s words.

Morpheus: Biblionaut
The story of a poet sent to Alpha Centauri to test a nuclear bomb that can destroy a planet, who returns to Earth to discover that Earth has a ring instead of a moon and that there is - perhaps - no longer life there. The narrative is told linearly and lasts for about 20 minutes, with no opportunity to rewind - it’s worth watching in a single setting though, both for the story itself and for the grungy space visuals created by Travis Alber: a scratched metal background with a window through which to watch the stars passing by, and dream images superimposed on or maybe reflected in the dull, stained metal.
