What do you think about contemporary creation?

I think of the good of creation in general, after that Contemporary or not, it is not very important for me, I give more attention has the Idea rather than has the time :/

Who are the artists that you appreciate?

For the music: Pink Floyd, the great time, (and always from time to time), also Axel Willner (Cordouan) which I use one of his soundtrack in Acte3/Scene3 (August Video Project: 30 movie clips of 10 frames) Diagram of Suburban chaos, and in fact all the music I use in my projects. Something that I hear and just thinking that it is absolutely perfect, completely brilliant. Something that I would be able to create if I where a musician. But something I don’t have to create, because someone have already made exactly what I wanted to hear.

And about cinema, Takeshi Kitano is my favorite director since I saw “A scene at the sea” (Ano Natsu Ichiban Shizukana Umi) a few years ago, and all his movie after this one… ( and I don’t say that because I am speaking in Shift Japan :).

And actually, my trip to Tokyo for the Canon Digital Creators Contest, was also a pretext for going to see the last Kitano ‘s Movie (Dolls), (don’t want to wait 6 months for see it in France), so after looking and looking or a place to see it in Tokyo, I finally find it in a small cinema in Shinjuku… yeahhh (thanks to Office Kitano for the information 🙂
