Grand soir numérique

Edit






Part of Némo, Biennale des arts numériques, Île-de-France Region
Edit






This Grand soir numérique explores how technology reshapes our perception of the familiar. Yang Song transforms a cello into a Chinese guqin with plucked strings. Augustin Braud adds a hidden, subterranean layer to instrumental sound. Riccardo Giovinetto explores the concept of feminine grace celebrated by Renaissance painters. Annabelle Playe and Hugo Arcier aim to recreate a version of nature untouched by human presence and Clara Olivares explore the impact of artificial intelligence on the creative process.
