The keyboard

"Monitor, keyboard, mouse are standard external devices of my computer. Add webcam, scanner, printer, and memory supports to complete the classical outline for this personal technical environment, interfaces to capture or to act (input and output devices). How to prolonge network applications to hardware? "Périphériques" is a kind of web-home-pluged-installation." Each of these devices will be the starting point of a realisation for Périphériques Series. WEBCAM was the first one. No 2 focuses on keyboard. It is a 2005 commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc., (aka Ether-Ore) for its Turbulence web site, and it's being produced during a residency at LA CHAMBRE BLANCHE. It is made possible with funding from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the Office Franco-Québécois pour la Jeunesse and the Consulat de la France à Québec.
