This contemporary dance short film, entitled “Monitor” and directed by Luke McManus was commissioned by RTE and the Irish Arts Council as part of the Dance On The Box series.
I collaborated with Sascha Perfect, performance artist from New Zealand, on a number of projects in Dublin, and we worked on some early ideas for this performance project. I filmed the other part of the original idea of this film on the Millenium Bridge.

Voici une vidéo vintage qui présente le Media Lab Europe à son démarrage,
en Octobre 2001, date à laquelle j’avais moi-même déménagé en Irlande, après

Le laboratoire a été construit et actif pendant plus de 4 ans, puis est devenu aujourd’hui le (plus conservateur) National Digital Research Center.
(La vidéo a été faite par Hervé Gomez, ethnologue et chercheur en musique électronique au Media Lab Europe, pour ses parents)
