Cutting Corners Creates More Sides
A spoken text …rummages through piles of surplus; boxed accouterments and that unaccounted for miscellanea… and the uneasiness of language itself as it grapples with the whereabouts of the necessary words. The narrative debris morphs through manifolds of optical glass with each utterance marking points along the way. On a long, black tableaux two cameras with little or no depth of field, sentence by sentence cut through a mysterious world of a seemingly inconsequential lineup of objects, tools, parts, bits and the unidentifiable forgotten –whatever might have been close at hand becomes enfolded in a richly colored crystalline doppelgänger image. For each sentence and “drilling” through the objects, the cameras’ parallaxes have been adjusted for a different cross section—the point where momentarily a continuous horizontal view is possible only to then quickly deconstruct as quickly as it formed. The object/installation itself is a self-contained self-reflexive mobile surface complete with positional projectors and screens and a narrow black “runway” of sorts reflecting the initial process of recording.

Megafoni
Ogni megafono modella il suono in un modo unico, variamente in linea o perpendicolare all’esecutore, con bande sonore lavate strette o larghe, alcune divise in più direzioni, mentre altre si concentrano su un punto. Questa famiglia di megafoni si svela attraverso una serie di tableaux.

ECHO CHAMBER
Performance audiovisuelle en plusieurs tableaux, Echo Chamber s’inspire des technologies qui permettent de sonder l’intérieur du corps, telles que les ultrasons et l’acupuncture, générant une composition sonore dans laquelle l’idée de résonance prédomine. En créant une interface modulaire à trois panneaux permettant de multiples manipulations, Messier a défini les limites des possibilités d’exécution d’une chorégraphie son et lumière. Saisissez de longues aiguilles comme s’il s’agissait de notes d’un instrument, perçant une plaque sensible à l’audio qui déclenche des séquences sonores.

Megaphones
Each megaphone shapes sound in a unique way—variably in line or perpendicular to the performer, with narrow or wide washed bands of sound, some split into multiple directions, while others focus on a point. These family of megaphones are revealed through a series of tableaux. more…

INJECT
A HUMAN BODY IS INJECTED IN A CISTERN. OVER THE COURSE OF 45 MINUTES, THE PRESSURE OF THE LIQUID EXERTS UPON HIM MULTIPLE NEUROSENSORIAL TRANSFORMATIONS. FROM HIS EPIDERMAL FIBER TO HIS NERVOUS SYSTEM, HE REACTS TO INFLUXES OF VISCOSITY IN THIS LIQUID CHAMBER. HIS CORTEX, LACKING OXYGEN, GRADUALLY LOSES ALL NOTIONS OF THE REAL. LIKE A HUMAN GUINEA PIG: A MATTER-BODY WHOSE PSYCHOLOGICAL STATES ARE THE OBJECT OF KINETIK TABLEAUX, OF SINGULAR TEMPORAL SPACES.
