1. Enter:in' Wodies

   Enter:in' Wodies is the intermedial installation, where the person interacts with the work via motion sensing input device Kinect. The main idea is to imagine the person, whose interiour you would desire to read. You can choose from two models – man or woman. After the first text that explains the initiation to enter other person, you interact with the work by choosing the body parts by touching with your hands the imaginary being. The body parts refer to seven organ systems. To reveal the poems connected with the particular human biological systems, you have to make movements with your hands to uncover the words (interaction area is defined by your physical distance of hand from the sensor). The revelation of each part brings about the biological image of its cell textures, of the music (which has its unique corresponding sound that goes with the main melody) and of the poetic text about the system's exceptionality. After having read all the pieces, the final text appears that informs about your leaving the other person's body.

4. pianographique

   "pianographique" is a "multimedia instrument" created in 1993 on CD-ROM and made available on the Web in 1996 by a French webarts collective. "pianographique" is a work of "programmatical literal art," a term coined by John Cayley. Letters are "literal" here: they tumble and morph automatically, and they can also be manipulated on occasion by the reader-interactor and/or generated by the program. The user of this work is presented with a keyboard on the screen that corresponds to the keyboard beneath her fingertips. Each letter of the user's keyboard, when pressed, produces a distinct sound score and an animation that can be displaced by the hand of the user working a mouse. Playing the "piano" of graphics and sound bites, the user can create an infinite number of verbal visual-aural collages, while hitting the space bar effaces all that has come before.

5. Six Little Loops

   Artist's statement:

   Maps are metaphors. Through metaphors we connect what we experience to what we remember. We create knowledge by connecting the new (the present) to what we know (the past) and so maybe predict what happens next (the future). 

   Our desire to predict fuels our desire to live, to survive. Desire is the foundation of narrative. Narrative reduces to desire, action and result-the structure of story. We exist in endless loops of desire-layer upon layer of stories of varying temporalities and shifting priorities-all synchronized to rhythms of breath and heart. 

   I make maps. I start with raw code-simple numeric models. As all is number in the computer I can map the numbers to the senses-turn numbers into tangible experience? The maps might loop in time (animation and audio) or freeze in a moment (a still image or print). There is synchrony in the sensory vertical and the temporal horizontal. Image and audio derive from the same numeric source. Each maps the other in the moment and through time. It's a visual music in a synaesthetic counterpoint.

6. Passage

   Passage is issued from a multimedia generator which arranges fixed and/or mobile images, literary texts to be read and/or heard and music all of which are on an interactive cederom. Passage can not be reinitialized even if the computer is turned off, so that the reader must always go ahead in his reading. The work is always passing away.

7. 2translation

   2translation est une œuvre réalisée par Grégory Chatonsky en 2002 grâce au programme «Villa Médicis hors les murs» de l’Association Française d'Action Artistique (AFAA), sous l’égide du ministère français des Affaires étrangères. Lorsqu’il accède au site Web de 2translation, l’internaute doit d’abord cliquer sur les fragments de texte qui apparaissent au centre de l’écran pour les faire se succéder un à un. Les mots forment alors le texte suivant, servant de courte introduction à l’œuvre: «Un livre / Topology of a Phantom City / Deux langues / Two languages / Anglais / French / Plusieurs / Several versions / Synchronisées / Desynchronized / Un tempo». L’écran est divisé en trois parties: à gauche et à droite, deux larges bandes noires sont brisées par le mot «translation» écrit encore et encore au bas de l’écran, parfois à l’envers, parfois à l’endroit (effet miroir), avec des polices de grosseurs diverses (effets de superposition et de transparence). Le texte de l’introduction elle-même (en blanc) apparaît dans la section du centre, formant une bande plus mince.
