RESONANCES is a metaphor for the passage of time. However, instead of expressing the linearity of time, this interactive installation evokes the way in which the actions of the present are overlapping with those of the past. Like a visual and sound echo, RESONANCES represents our previous actions that resurface, amplifying the present, and becoming in turn past, like a perpetual temporal mise en abyme. This visual and sound loop allows the interactor to choreograph their present by building it on their own past, in a playful and singular way.
The piece was unveiled in December 2021 during the CORPS DATA exhibition at the Ilot Balmoral in collaboration with ELEKTRA. It was presented at BIAN 6 (Biennale d’art numérique) at Arsenal Contemporary Art in Montreal in 2023 and at Mad Arts Gallery in 2024. An exterior edition was presented at I light Singapore 2023 and Future Media FEST 2024 in Taipei.

Artist(s)
Louis-Philippe Rondeau
In his works, Louis-Philippe Rondeau develops devices that explore self-representation and performance in a playful and unconventional manner. His research-creation approach reveals as much a search for simplicity of design for users, as an interest in the complexity of computer code and the execution of physical objects. While situating his research in the history of marginal photographic processes popularized in the 19th century, his works with digital images – unlike analog photography – do not stand for reality. His unusual instruments stem from his aspiration to uncover novel means of self-expression.
His research is focused on human representation and performance in a media-archeological context. It is inspired by a desire to reinterpret forgotten and overlooked forms of media, using contemporary digital tools. Sometimes reprising the mirror’s modus operandi, his interactive installations compel us to reconsider the conventions employed in the mediation of bodies, specifically those regarding the representation of space and time.
