Bio:
ANAMORPHOSE (video installation) - Ibrahim Quraishi Norscq / Marc Perroud aka t-zèd / Veronique Ruggia-Saura

ANAMORPHOSE is about a generative dialogue, sampling of fragmented relationships between broken dramaturges and the process of cultural repetition. Six (6) mini screens examine Six (6) metaphorical spaces, Six (6) visual rhythms, layered, slicing and dicing; transposition with cognitive memory. Six (6) streams of consciousness as the Six (6) screen trip tic present the illusion of exclusivity as part of the fractured cultural software. Abstraction of the corpS (BODY) - Alien-nation of space, hyper-text and the ever present role of digital “noiseS” in their regurgitation, mutation and regeneration process.

Creation: New York 2003 Anamorphose was produced by Compagnie Faim de Siècle (Paris-New York) Edited at CICV Pierre Schaeffer (Montbeliard-Belfort - France) as part of a 3 week residency for Ibrahim Quraishi and Marc Perroud aka t-zèd.
