It is inspired by a science fiction novel by Margaret Atwood. Language, in a more fluid form, could be a magical tool to think the future differently.\n\nThe semi-hypnotic video presents a fictional clinical experiment in which a scientist attempts to transform radically her patient\u2019s uses of language in her daily life. The video combines different types of images: a \"magical\" keyboard which enables the visitor to travel through different linguistic bubbles, dissolving sculptural objects, drones-filmed objects in landscapes and 3d renderings. The soundtrack consists of female narrative voices in English and German, as well as ambient sounds mostly created from voices. There could be the possibility to generate Spanish subtitles to present the video in a Spanish-speaking context.\n\nThe video script proposes to adopt a \u201cpraxis of language disturbance\u201d, of language rebellion, which could be defined by a more fluid approach to \u201cnaming\u201d and signifying. Considering the absence of words for naming marginalised concepts and beings, language fluidity is emancipatory in the sense that it aims to train our abilities to name what still has to be named. \n\nThe title of the project refers to a segment of a feminist science fictional essay written in French and translated in English.","space":"v1: VIDEO INSTALLATION: Ideally, the 10-minutes video would be presented in a black box with a projector and stereo speakers. If possible, other sculptural objects could be part of the setting or be presented in other parts of the exhibition. Some elements of the installation could refer to the esthetic of a futuristic clinic. See photos attached.\n\nv2: VIDEO ON MONITOR with headphones: as a second and smaller version, the video could be presented on a HD monitor with headphones.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/405838049","audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Marie-Andr\u00e9e","surname":"Pellerin","email":"marieapellerin@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"AG733731","address":"Landstrasse 77, 4020","city":"Linz","nacionality":"canada","country_id":"16","birthdate":"1986-03-16T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1986-03-16T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+4367762386126","web":"marieapellerin.info","fileCount":9}
