  1. Mandelbrot.fr (private reading device)

    The Mandel.brot Project (http://www.mandelbrot.fr, in French) has existed online since 1999. From the beginning, we dedicated our project to an experimentation with the aesthetics of the ephemeral and the flow; we thus refuse any archiving of the source files of our creations. The creations remain on the web for a few months. Then they are removed forever. And even when they are online, they permanently face extinction: the instability of the digital device is integrated as a fundamental aesthetic principle in all our works (see « Flux »: the movement of the words was supposed to be calm and relaxing; but on powerful computers, the flow is transformed into a wild torrent). Each creation on Mandel.brot thematizes this instability in a specific way.The Mandel.brot Project is a dialogue (we invite you to compare for example « Soleil Amer » and « Inexorable »), which sometimes becomes animated, and sometimes stops for a long time. None of the creations on Mandel.brot can be separated from their context: the website and the device, which remains deliberately unstable.

  2. Urban Fragments

    Urban Fragments is an interactive website that functions as a repository for ideas about the city and how the urban experience can be translated into an online experience. From the opening users can peruse numerous avenues each accessible through a different vertical fragment pictured on the home page. Animations, processing sketches and images are gathered together within the site and open in individual pop up windows creating random juxtapositions and eventually chaos on the screen.
