Horizon

Dimensions : 1920 x 1080 – Length : 00:05:03

The Web was introduced during the last century as something immaterial, “in the clouds”. But the network is made of a heavy material infrastructure, cables from one continent to another and data centers that concentrate Internet data.
“Horizon” is an endless traveling in photographs found on the web representing the corridors of these data centers. These images show a classical albertinian perspective. The eye moves it while remaining paradoxically immobile.

Le Web a Ă©tĂ© prĂ©sentĂ© au siĂšcle dernier comme quelque chose d’immatĂ©riel, “dans les nuages”. Or le rĂ©seau est constituĂ© d’une infrastructure matĂ©rielle lourde, de cĂąbles allant d’un continent Ă  un autre et de data centers qui concentrent les donnĂ©es d’Internet.
“Horizon” est un travelling sans fin dans des photographies trouvĂ©es sur le Web reprĂ©sentant les couloirs de ces data centers. Ces images reprennent une perspective albertinienne classique. Le regard s’y dĂ©place tout en restant paradoxalement immobile.
