Art Sensitif

Today I grant you with a video I made in a laboratory called "Centre de Ressources Art Sensitif". It means Ressource Center for Sensitive Art, sensitive here refers to your senses and to sensors as in light sensor. It's a project realised by Jean-Noel Montagne who wanted to build a place where one can learn and understand the role of sensors, real-time and interactivity in media art. Jean Noel is giving us the ressources to achieve this goal thanks to the help of "Mains d'Oeuvres" who is hosting the project. So how does it work? well basically let's say you want to make an new media art installation that works in real time or a piece of interactive dance and you want to know which kind of sensors are right for you and how you can use the output signal to achieve what you need. You can just go there and try the many sensors found on the walls, find one you like and then choose how its signal will be treated and finally test it on a particular action (light, video, mechanical actions, spatial sound...) and you can switch the sensors, signal treatments and actions as much as you want until you get the desired effect. Be ready for a lot of fun!

In the video you will see Jean Noel explaining how it works and how the project could finally exist after about 5 years of political fighting, during the interview you will see the process of actually building the room with the different people involved and at the end the public opening.
