LIVE CINÉMA

"Vincent Moon's Live Cinéma" is a performance mixing live-editing, music on stage and in the films screened, and an exploration of expanded cinema.

In search of a contemporary form of connection with the image, breaking away from Western narrative while questioning the hybridisation of our digital practices, his ‘Live Cinéma’ opens up to another way of thinking about the relationship with the spectator. An optical ritual, a call to the personal unconscious hidden behind our collective images, an endless research into contemporary trance, Vincent Moon's ‘Live Cinéma’ is an intense visual and sonic improvisation based on the entirety of his musical research around the world. A new show is created every night, based on the recordings of the Collection Petites Planètes.

At the heart of his approach for sharing and experimenting, as an endless quest for the beauty of the world, the ´Live Cinéma´ is also an ongoing critique of all forms of ownership and borders, in complete transparency. A performance adapted to the venue, it sometimes involves local musicians and artists who take part in this game of magic mirrors held up to reality.

Here is a small selection of various site-specific works from the past years. You can listen to more than a hundred of live cinéma recordings on the soundcloud page.
