as in good old times;) Philippe Laurent "Hot-Bip" (Minimal Wave Records - FR) DJ set Philippe Laurent is a plastic artist, musician and designer. Whether working with graphic codes or digital codes, plastic arts or music, Laurent?s approach is one of research, specifically having to do with people?s perception of signs and symbols. As a multi-media artist, he has always been open to new technologies, whether he is composing musical works or creating graphic works. During the 90s, he reached a landmark with his inter-disciplinary work via shows in France and Germany, by designing complex pieces that mixed various advanced techniques. His paintings, the illusion of calligraphies on monochromic funds, pose a question about the relationship between signs and meanings. Philippe Laurent develops ideograms party figural and partly abstraction, aiming to never repeat the same figure twice, like the writing of a lost continent or of an original language, a code which would have preceded all the other languages and which would have been lost. This game of ambiguity asks the fundamental question of the ontological state of the written language in our western societies. Philippe Laurent comes from a long personal study of the shapes of early symbols and letters which leads to the sublime nature of an esoteric alphabet. www.facebook.com/pages/Philippe-Laurent/7616812945 http://minimalwave.com/artists/artist/philippe-laurent/ Bright Entity LIVE Bright Entity will make you dance and dream on their analog voyage.
