Beastmode reconstitutes architectural objects from the archives of Claude-Nicolas Ledoux, which are then animated by virtual robots. According to Testa & Wieser, in a post-digital era, when everything is accessible everywhere, the creative process is no longer defined ex nihilo, but is henceforth based on the digital and analog collection and combination of elements. New tools, furthermore, now let us play with and mobilize terms heretofore distinct: fixed perspective / mobile object, mobile perspective / fixed object, mobile perspective / mobile object.
This work was created to be part of the collective installation "The Architectural Beast" (2019) curated by Hernan Diaz Alonso.
