SPIME.IM talk to Françoise Poos and Vincent Crapon from Elektron about their audio-video live show
Grey Line presented on the day before at the
Multiplica Lab – A/V Night.
Grey Line is an intensive and thought-provoking performance that tackles current topics like war, climate change and the impact of humankind on the earth with raw sincerity. This discussion will lead us through the artistic vision of a collective that tries to make sense of the complex world we’re living in.
The speakers
- SPIME.IM is a media art collective that investigates the aesthetics and languages derived from the affirmation of digital reality. The themes they explore mainly revolve around the boundaries of identity, corporeality, and the perception of the human being in the absurd times mankind is facing.
They have presented their work at international digital art festivals such as Mutek (Canada, Japan, and Spain), Ars Electronica, Club to Club, Lunchmeat, Stereolux, and L.E.V. Additionally, they presented their latest multimedia production, The End Of The World, at the Barbican Centre in London with internationally renowned pianist and composer Lubomyr Melnyk, cellist Julia Kent, the vocal group Shards, and soprano Elina Netšajeva.
