Designed and directed by Thierry Fournier, Augmented Window is a “sensory observatory”. Different artists and authors have been invited to produce a critical reading or original work on the landscape itself. Each contribution is geo-localized and presented on a touch-screen window that looks out onto a landscape that is simultaneously displayed as a live video feed on the window itself.
Augmented window is exhibited for the first time at the Pompidou Center (Futur en Seine festival) from the 17th to the 26th of June, 2011, during which the following 16 artists and authors will address the Halles district of Paris: Benjamin Laurent Aman, Ivan Argote, Felicia Atkinson, Christelle Bakhache et Clément Féger, David Beytelmann, Marie-Julie Bourgeois, Pierre Carniaux, Céline Flécheux, Juliette Fontaine, Thierry Fournier, Marie Husson, Tomek Jarolim, Jean-François Robardet, Marcos Serrano, Antoine Schmitt.
Augmented window was the subject of a research project coordinated by Thierry Fournier at the research laboratory of the Ecole nationale supérieure des Arts Décoratifs de Paris (Drii program, Sensory surfaces framework). It has been developed in partnership with the Sciences Po Medialab.
