JULIEN OTTAVI

JULIEN OTTAVI Doctor in Arts, Composer, Artist, Curator.

A mediactivist, artist-researcher, composer / musician, poet and tongues destroyer, experimental filmmaker and anarchitect, founder and member of Apo33, Julien Ottavi is involved in research and creative work, combining sound art, real-time video, new technologies and body performances. Since 1997, he has developed composition work using voice and its transformation through computer. Active developer of audio/visual programs with Puredata, he has also developed, since many years, DIY electronics (radio transmitters, oscillators, mixers, amplifiers, video transmitters…etc) in the perspective of knowledge sharing on technological development. Main developer for the Gnu/Linux operating system APODIO for digital art and A/V & streaming diffusion. His practice is not limited to the art spheres but crosses different fields from technological development to philosophy / theoretical research, biomimetic analysis & experimentation. For many years he reflected on the relations between experimental practices and collective practices within the creation of autonomous collective groups, putting in question the authorship strategy of the “art ideology”.
