1. Neseblod

   Neseblod means "nose bleed" in Norwegian, and a blurred photo of a man's face, with blood around his nose, is a key visual element of the piece. This is a dynamic, audio-visual work where the reader can affect which sounds are produced and which textual fragments are displayed on the screen. The background consists of three images that repeat in a loop at the same time as a white line continuously moves in a loop from top to bottom of the screen. The reader can move eight white dots around on the screen, and each dot has its own sound and a small textual fragment. Each time the white line scans a white dot the sound and the textual fragment are realised. The work's aesthetic expression depends on how many dots the reader chooses to activate, and how the reader organises the dots in the space.

3. My Summer Vacation

   This haunting narrative about a summer vacation turned tragic uses a slim strip of moving images as the background for a stream of language flowing from right to left as a series of voices tell a piece of the story. The sound of waves on the shore serve as a soothing aural backdrop to each character’s whispered voices, perhaps suggestive of what happens when the sea raises its voice. Each character involved with the tragic turn of events brings a different perspective to the situation, yet they are all so involved in their own affairs, much like the ending of Robert Frost’s poem “Out, Out.” In the final lines of the poem, as the speaker (whisperer) seeks to tie up the events in a neat little package that can provide closure, we realize that closure eludes all the characters in the story, who must continue to live on haunted by their memories and regrets.

4. Re:Cycle

   Re:Cycle is a generative ambient video art piece based on nature imagery captured in the Canadian Rocky Mountains.  Ambient video is designed to play in the background of our lives.  It is a moving image form that is consistent with the ubiquitous distribution of ever-larger video screens. The visual aesthetic supports a viewing stance alternative to mainstream media - one that is quieter and more contemplative - an aesthetic of calmness rather than enforced immersion.  An ambient video work is therefore difficult to create - it can never require our attention, but must always rewards viewer attention when offered.  A central aesthetic challenge for this form is that it must also support repeated viewing.  Re:Cycle relies on a generative recombinant strategy for ongoing variability, and therefore a higher measure of re-playability.  It does so through the use of two random-access databases: one database of video clips, and another of video transition effects.  The piece will run indefinitely, joining clips and transitions from the two databases in randomly varied combinations.

6. Fable Girls: A Living Photos Series

   Retellings of classic fairy tales and childrens' stories: Alice in Wonderland, Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White and Cindarella. The stories are told in a series of "living photos", that is images with limited video motion, and in some cases, sentences and phrases are used to tell the story. Readers for the most part move through the stories by clicking "next" arrows, but in some cases - for instance when Red meets the "wolf" - readers are given a choice that affects the rest of the story.

10. Le dossier est vide

    Au cours de la performance Le dossier est vide, Juliette Mézenc lira un texte qui est un agencement/bégaiement créé à partir d’entretiens menés par Bourdieu ou Vollmann sur les questions de migration. Dans le même temps, Stéphane Gantelet fabrique des images en direct sur grand écran. La prolifération des fichiers créés lors des manipulations sur ordinateur, squelette numérique de la performance, entre dans un dialogue tantôt étroit tantôt lâche avec le texte lu pour conduire à la création d’un court film.
