Le Cube - Centre for digital creation

After studying visual communication, Marie-Julie Bourgeois started working in the audio-visual sector as an art director and in post-production with Partizan midi-minuit. In 2007, she took part in a collective exhibition on body metamorphoses and mutations at the Dialogos gallery. In 2008, she received a Master’s Degree in New Media from the ENSCI (National school of industrial design). She creates interactive devices focusing on issues relating to telepresence, in which the camera-object is “a vision-generating machine invading our everyday lives”. The Tempo installation (a real-time cartography of the sky) was shown during the 2008 Nuit Blanche, as part of the Némo festival and during the SIANA festival. The Extension du vide project (behavioural and virtual camera) was shown as part of Futur en Seine at the Pavillon de l’Arsenal and at the PIKSEL festival in Norway. In 2009, she was awarded a grant for digital creation by the JL Lagardère Foundation for the Extension parallèle project (interactive time distortion).
