"As a true performance, the film
would only exist in the presence of its author. Why live arts ? For
the contact, the act of gift between artists and audience [12]; For
the risk, the thrill of the audience toward the unexpected, the
accident, the insight into the construction process; For
improvisation and open forms, because text and recording are not
holy and should be subject each time to reinterpretation and
recreation."

"After performing with a simple prototype in real conditions in
clubs and festivals across Europe and the US, we found that,
contrarily to most common computer-based performance tools :
the interface needs to be transparent, so that the audience sees and
understands the process; and performative, so that the audience
can be engaged in the performerâs effort."
