Le systeme des Objets, Jean Baudrillard

2009-09-05T10:39:00.000-07:00

"Fort de ces analyses, Baudrillard propose une conclusion d’une grande force analytique et conceptuelle : l’ensemble des analyses ont porté sur le rapport à l’objet et non sur l’objet lui-même : à bien y regarder, Baudrillard s’est tenu à ce programme initial, dans la mesure où la publicité, le crédit, l’atmosphère, etc., constituent bien une relation entre personnes et objets, et non un symbolisme intrinsèque de l’objet ; on pourrait dire que cet ouvrage de Baudrillard n’a qu’un dessein : comprendre comment l’homme entre en relation avec l’objet, et surtout comment la société de consommation instaure un rapport tout à fait particulier, incitant à rentrer en relation avec une quantité sans cesse croissante d’objets. Le coup de force conceptuel de Baudrillard, en conclusion de cet ouvrage, consiste à penser la subsumption de la relation elle-même sous le mouvement général de la consommation : autrement dit, la relation à l’objet se trouve elle-même prise dans le mouvement général consumériste analysé, si bien que la relation « se consomme », au sens de « s’achève », et dans cet achèvement se trouve la source du besoin sans cesse renaissant et croissant de la reproduction du mouvement consumériste."

1x3 Project

2009-09-02T18:13:00.000-07:00

1x3 is the first short movie.
I chose to experiment the concept in a neutral environment to focus the improvisation on the relationship subject/object
The performers discovered the score when they arrived in the studio.
They brought a personal object and improvised with specific directions.
The cameraman also had his own directions and improvised following the movements playing with different angles and perspectives of the subjects/objects!

2x3 Project

2009-09-02T18:09:00.000-07:00

2x3 is the second short movie of the series.
After the first experimentation (1x3), I have added a specific context to develop the concept.
I chose a structured space, defined and useful as an object, a Bus Stop.
I expanded the concept with more complex relationships: human/object, and human/object/human.
I asked the performers to play with these parameters: space, object, subject.
We prepared the shooting with one rehearsal in a studio and in a bus stop.
The cameramen shot wide and “wild” angles mostly improvised to enhance the concept.

Definition/Concept

2009-04-10T00:25:00.001-07:00

Concept
This video dance project is an exploration of our human behaviors, our relationship with others, with objects.
A research of connected events between a body, an act and an object…
I’m interested in the transformation, the absurd, the disturbing experience that change our references, our understandings…
How the object is more significant than the human body? How it becomes a body…Are we used versus user?
Are we Object or Subject of/in our action?
I’m working on 3 short videos that develop this idea.

ob⋅ject [n. ob-jikt, -jekt; v. uhb-jekt] Show IPA

Object (philosophy), a thing, being or concept
Entity, something that is tangible and within the grasp of the senses
Physical body or object, in physics, a collection of masses

Use object in a Sentence
1. anything that is visible or tangible and is relatively stable in form.
2. a thing, person, or matter to which thought or action is directed: an object of medical investigation.
3. the end toward which effort or action is directed; goal; purpose: Profit is the object of business.
4. a person or thing with reference to the impression made on the mind or the feeling or emotion elicited in an observer: an object of curiosity and pity.
