I wanted to give to the medium of video a spontaneity which is often
lacking in a field heavily dependent on technology. It’s a complex process from the initial idea to the final result because the material first has to be recorded, then edited/transformed. A live setting where the experience is created in facing the audience will furthermore depend on an immediate presence and on the communication between the players on stage. Until recently, these criteria could not be fulfilled using analog video technology, as the equipment was too expensive, technically insufficient and lacking flexibility. The digital revolution has now made video technology cheaper, better, and most importantly, it has given the user instant access to the video stream. Thanks to digital video technology applications supporting MIDI control, video becomes a powerful medium in the crossover field
of performance/live.
