Abdel Bounane was invited by Morgane Miel (Madame Figaro) to discuss digital art, contemplation & data at la Journée de la Femme Digitale in Paris.

At this same conference, we also exhibited the artworks from Grégory Chatonsky, Clément Valla and Katie Torn, Courtesy of XPO art studio.

Bright also ran a series of workshops where Minecraft talents re-created iconic monuments of the Centre Pompidou’s architecture collection. Visitors were invited to hack, modify or add personal touches to the buildings, creating their own interpretations of the museum’s architecture collection.

Thanks to Bright’s business model, artists exhibiting their work in amazing spaces like these receive 50% of the generated revenue.

Madame Figaro wrote about a talk Abdel Bounane gave during the exhibition “Osons la France” on the “cultural entrepreneur”.

For LVMH’s annual digital event, Bright’s challenge was to artistically portray the brand’s presence on social media. We produced an artwork by Pierre Magnol that illustrates each business’s activity on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

For the new “Promenade Sainte Catherine”, Bright curated a collection of digital artworks, displayed on the city’s new giant screen. The collections were compiled according to specific themes for day and night.

In partnership with Orange, Bright produced an installation created by artist Joseph Wilk that collected motion and noises made by visitors during “Futur en Seine” and turned them into music.

As part of the #MuseumWeek2015, BRIGHT produced an innovative artwork with digital artists Marcin Ignac and Henryk Wollik. A “generative” artwork, the visuals of which were based on Twitter data from each museum taking part. Sublimated by a creative and evolving algorithm, the data provided by each Museum Week museum produced a lively digital artwork, made in real-time. Both an international performance thanks to its size but still unique for each of the 3000 museum. Hosted on MuseumWeek2015.org, it made the museum able to have access to their tailored work, according to their individual identical data and to the conversation produced from their Twitter account.

BRIGHT produced an artwork by Brendan Dawes for Twitter France. Doris Le Bot creates unique digital creatures from real-time tweets, born from various properties of the user's Twitter profile. During an event in Paris, people could tweet to @dorislebot and watch as their digital creature appeared on screen and swam with the other people’s creatures. The shape of each creature was generated from their unique user ID using a Superformula algorithm. The amount of favorited tweet in their Twitter profile acted like food, governing their size. Colours were mapped to how many years they had been on Twitter, whilst Power Users were given multiple coloured special stripes. Curious users – those that were following more than they had followers had various size antennae with their eye sizes dictated by this ratio. After the event a small selection of the digital creatures was made to be transformed in physical objects that you could hold in your hands through the process of 3D printing...
