From May 5 to 7, 2022, on the occasion of the Digital Advantage Forum, digital evenings are offered to participants to conclude these enriching days in style. Between the cathartic and hopeful experience of Nycthophobia, the satyric rock of Gazoline and the digital performances of Martin Messier and Jean-Ambroise Vesac, the days of the Forum will end with authentic and atypical experiences.
NYCTHOPHOBIE
May 5 – 8pm
The fear of the dark. This is where it all began. In this sensitive and autobiographical stage essay, Jean-François Boisvenue probes the corners of his difficult psychological journey, transposing into movement his episodes of depersonalization and derealization. Video animations make the unspeakable visible in this intimate journey in body and images through generalized anxiety.
GAZOLINE + VJ MAYLEE KEO
May 6 – 9pm
The province’s most sellout punks are coming out with an album in November: Gazoline III. How to reinvent the famous rock, now disowned by all in favor of 4-word genres? By killing it, shaking it, shocking the old-timers: Gazoline will not hesitate to pick from left and right, from new jack swing to shoegaze, to orchestrate its comeback. The result is an almost concept album, or meta, that’s the word, by a band that is still toffing, ready to do anything to savor its last chance.
Bon Quartier will conclude this evening at the Cabaret de la Dernière Chance.
ECHO CHAMBER + OÙ COURS-TU BONYTRIGGER ? + ELUSIVE MATTER
May 7th – 8pm
Martin Messier presents Echo Chamber, a performance inspired by technologies that allow us to probe the interior of the body, such as ultrasound or acupuncture, thus generating a sound composition where the idea of resonance predominates.
The poetic audiovisual performance explores the artistic possibilities of an avatar in its virtual world. BonyTrigger is the avatar of Jean-Ambroise Vesac since the 90’s. This virtual character, controlled live, explores, plays, swirls in a virtual environment made to measure.
With Elusive Matter, a light and sound performance, Martin Messier transforms simple wisps of smoke into a projection surface.
