"Just In Case" happened on december 9th 2011. It took place in four different art centers simultaneously.

A performer in Laboral (Gijon, Spain) interacted with an installation in Hangar (Barcelona, Spain)

while a musical collaboration among five musicians occurred between Lieu Multiple (Poitiers, France) and Laboral.

A remote audience in SAT (Montreal, Canada) watched the whole process.

The performer in Laboral dropped ropes on the floor. It activated sensors which triggered motors, in Hangar.  The motors opened boxes of salt placed on the ceiling, and activated 3D video elements projected onto the floor around the salt.

Teleshared action, four places (nodes).

“There are words that  hurt  and are encysted in the  skin.   A catastrophic form that becomes mortal.”

Sara Malinarich (Guest artist to Femlink Project, on behalf of Chile)
“I, Carolina” (Video)
Sound: Odisseu Fill de Laertes
Cast: Helena Rebenaque

It based on the book “The metamorphosis” of Franz Kafka, the video “I, Carolina” exposes one of the facets of the aggressiveness.

The words like a way of violence.

For Daniel Sibony (Moroccan, French Psychoanalyst 1946), there is a crucial episode in the book. It is when Gregorio Samsa’ s sister throws him apples causing the death of Samsa.

According to Sibony these apples, encysted in the shell of the protagonist, are words. They are the reproaches that acquire a mortal form.

In the process of the communication to distance through chats and virtual communities on the Internet this environment become a real space.  This piece, captured in real-time, is a dialogue among users with an emotional linking. The video show the complexity of the media where the relationships are founded on virtual spaces and how this environment is capable to modify the perceptions and the lives.  Through a common language and some codes, recently in practice, the caracters (avatars) of this short film confess and lie.

They represent their own avatar.  They doubt; the fact is that in the network certain guidelines are clear: the body and the message to are about to verify.  ID + COM, is the reflection of a cyberculture, impregnated of the human desires, with the property to penetrate vertically in the reality.
