CRYPTICCRYSTALCLOUD is a never-stopping audio-visual collaboration between Belgian artists Kris Delacourt (1978), Nico Dockx (1974), and Jan Mast (1980). This audio-visual installation work - of which the first version was shown in februari 2005 at CCA project gallery in Kitakyushu, Japan - looks at new ways of organizing data and parallel universes. It moves through an interactive, intuitive application of interior complexity towards an evolutive architecture of time in which information transforms into meaning. Dust becomes light. Different, shuffled relationships create a complementary white room where a growing archive of papers starts dancing with red, green and blue. You can sleep on a dense carpet of memories, and walk through a violent, graphic rain-curtain. Sea-sounds of steel-waves. Like a silent person you take with you on travels, talking to you when you feel alone. Ongoing life inside-outside us.
an independent installation using the experience and the way of experiencing things gathered through the project CRYPTICCRYSTALCLOUD.
Building Transmissions is a multi-media collective (Antwerp, 2001) sounding out together improvisational sonic architectures, live experimental sound performances and a curious spectrum of audiovisual installations. In their work they reflect upon the different social possibilities of both the production and circulation of radical ideas in relation to text, image and sound. Building Transmissions makes use of a broad range of 'conventional' acoustic instruments next to field recordings and uncanny electronics. The often dark and at times brooding atmosphere of their ambient-like soundscapes and/or high-pitched frequencies of noise-like time structures are sometimes replenished with minimalist image streams.
