Nabaz'mobJean-Jacques Birgé and Antoine Schmitt
A Nabaztag is a nine-inch-tall Wi-Fi-enabled “ambient device” in the shape of a stylized rabbit. Artist, programming engineer, and designer Antoine Schmitt and composer, film director, multimedia author, and sound designer Jean-Jacques Birgé bring together one hundred of these quirky little creatures – each equipped with flashing lights, moving ears and a built-in speaker – to perform a musical and choreographic score for three voices.
Winner of the 2009 Prix Arts Electronica Award of Distinction Digital Musics, this unique performance – and the technology that makes it possible – raises issues of collaboration, organization, decision, and control that are central to our contemporary world.
