FOVEA
NICE- France
Fovea is an experimental cinema performance. Images and sounds are produced live.
The moving images are created from two static light sources outof slides projectors. Using different tools, like a fan and a turn table, Emmanuelle Negre creates variation of light movements. Inspired by phantasmagoria performance and optic tools she plays with the projection with color filters to go from a white screen to an explosion of vibrations of colors. The images are carried and rhythms by the increasing intensityof the sound. Using guitar, and synthesizer, two amplifiers and multiple effects Geoffrey Boulier plays on loop his sounds added on top of each others and playing with stereo effect. The show ends on the reflection of hundreds of light squares turning while hitting the audience in the entire room. Together they produce an abstract psychedelic cinematic experience made from scratch. An homage to proto-cinema show and psychedelic music.
