I create digital theater. Or theatricalise the digital. Whichever.
When I am not hiding behind my computer screen, I build theatrical worlds in which I can evolve. With a passion for dismantling computers and wandering endlessly on the Net, it makes sense for me to create digital theater. Or theatricalise the digital. Whichever. Using different forms, sometimes shows, sometimes performances, sometimes installations, I explore the stakes of current digital revolutions. I use the Internet on stage and give this medium a preponderant place in my dramaturgy.

My work explores the digital world and the ways in which we live in it. You Me Our Love and the Electronic Guy looks at issues of virtual encounter and telepresence, Worldwidewestern reveals a digital double life and the solitude behind the screen, CGU reflects on our ambivalent relationship with GAFA, Robots plays with our robotic fantasies. I always try to take a critical, sincere and amused look at these issues.

If the digital is present in the content, it is also present in the form. Screens, video projections and the Internet hold a preponderant place in my dramaturgy. I often perform and show web navigation on stage. It becomes, for me, a mode of writing and expression in its own right.

In general, I consider the computer as central to my writing and my scenography. It is a space of creation — an accessory to connect from the stage to the rest of the world, a tool to create signs, a window to make the intimate public, a shared cultural practice...

My practice is also based on a dialogue with science. I like to transform scientific elements into documented poetry, so that they enrich, contradict, dialogue with my writing. For example, for the show Je ne suis pas un astronaute I was in residency at the CNES (National Centre for Space Studies) in Paris, for Robots I was accompanied by INSA (the National Institute of Applied Sciences) in Villeurbanne, for CGU I exchanged with lecturers-researchers in communication.
