Nicolas Maigret

NICOLAS MAIGRET HAS BEEN DEVELOPING AN EXPERIMENTAL PRACTICE OF SOUND AND ELECTRONIC IMAGES (PERFORMANCES, INSTALLATIONS, PROGRAMMING, RADIO) SINCE 2001. IN HIS CREATIONS HE EXPERIMENTS THE POSSIBILITIES OF CONTEMPORARY TECHNOLOGIES TO AUTO-GENERATE AESTHETIC FORMS, SOUND OR VISUAL LANGUAGES AND SPECIFIC BEHAVIORS. HIS WORK IS AS WELL A MICRO-LABORATORY AS A POINT OF VIEW ON THE TECHNOLOGICAL TOOLS AND THERE INFLUENCES ON OUR WAY OF THINKING AND OF ACTING. HE WORKS IN DUO WITH NICOLAS MONTGERMONT UNDER THE NAME OF ART OF FAILURE. 

Selected Works:

8 SILENCES

8 SILENCES OFFERS A SENSIBLE REPRESENTATION OF INTERNET BY BROADCASTING AUDIO STREAMS THAT TRAVEL AND REVERBERATE TROUGH THE WEB. INITIALLY SILENTS, THE STREAMS PROGRESSIVELY INCORPORATE AN INFINITY OF TRANSFORMATIONS OR "ERRORS" THAT MODIFY THE SOUND AS IT CIRCULATES ON THE NETWORK. THESE ALTERATIONS ARE COMPARABLE TO A FORM OF EROSION CAUSED BY THE NETWORK SPACE - THEY ARE A KEY TO ALLOW DIFFERENT MENTAL REPRESENTATIONS OF THIS DIGITAL TOPOGRAPHY. PRESENTED AS A LIVE PERFORMANCE, 8 SILENCES IS A SOUND IMMERSION IN THE HEART OF DATA FLOWS.
