1. Où est la marche / Where is the step ?

   La question ontologique de l’essence du cinéma, incarnée par Bazin et son « qu’est-ce que le cinéma » se déplace aujourd’hui, sous la poussée de nouvelles formes de consommation des images vers une « relocation » du cinéma, résumée dans cette question : « où est le cinéma ? ». 
   Après avoir investigué le code, le génératif, l’algorithme, le flux, nous pourrions nous demander aussi où est la littérature numérique, avec une sortie de l’écran rendant parfois caduque cette idée d’une littérature principalement électronique. 
   La velléité d“écrire en numérique” semble abandonner les tests et essais de littérature numérique par crainte de voir les pistes possibles de nouvelles formes d’écriture se fermer une à une. 
   Peut-on poser que cette littérature électronique reprenne pied dans un livre en bonne et due forme comme des pierres dans un jardin numérique ouvert ? 
   C’est ce que nous avons questionné avec nos étudiants en design multimédia du DSAA de Boulogne (France) dont quatre créations sont détaillées ci-dessous dans cette proposition.

2. Audiographe In Situ #1

   First the Audiographe computes the poet’s voice waveform in order to let the voice draw itself a geolocalized itinerary in Montreal. Once anchored in a geolocalized soundscape, the text comes to life according to the intensity and the rhythm of the voice. Realtime video exhibited here in a video capture form. Length : 21 minutes divided in 7 chapters.

3. Blocked Connections

   Using visual QR codes embedded into combinations of traditional quilt blocks drawing on piecing and applique, the reader will discover fragments of a quilter’s story using any QR-reader capable smart phone. The primary object of installation is an original quilt, designed using high-contrast panels of fabric to allow the QR reader to decode additional meaning in what will appear to the human eye as an abstract piece steeped in traditions of pieced and quilted textile art. This installation thus combines two traditions of meaning: one analog, the language and traditions of quilt blocks, and one digital, the interconnected hypertext trails of communication unlocked through finding the QR codes. By providing a tangible interface to a re-imagined, oft-forgotten, and somewhat "broken" era of the web, the quilt tells the story of its imagined creator, a quilter working during the “early” days of the web in 1999.

4. Style Guide for Erasing Human Dignity

   Style Guide for Erasing Human Dignity responds to the current political climate in America through a facetious writing guide mixed with poetry. The images within it trigger more text when viewed through an augmented reality app.

   This “style guide” was inspired by a recent news article about the suggestion to modify language when applying for White House funding. This prospect is incredibly dangerous; what protections disappear when language is changed or erased? Spanish-language and LGBT resources were removed from WhiteHouse.gov, for example. Style Guide for Erasing Human Dignity comments on contemporary political issues (the current attack on immigration, environmental protections and journalism) with the proposal of new linguistic strategies. The guide suggests conflating words (Could ‘weather’ be the same as ‘climate’? Could ‘credible’ be replaced with ‘retweeted’?) and provides alternative definitions (Accountability: An account, and the ability to run it effectively. Also see: Social media).

   This satirical writing guide is mixed with poetry and images of burning books.
