VJs Pillow & Mademoiselle
VJ Pillow (aka Thien Vu Dang): Instead of using paper, pencil and traditional musical instruments, he prefers to work with video camera, laptop computer, video mixer and other electronic gadgets. For him, the image is music for the eyes.
VJ Mademoiselle (aka Yasuko Tadokoro): Favouring a certain idea of positivism, her video performances are characterized by their freshness and lightness, yet bear the mark of the technological advances in the digital arts.
DJs Wakame and Guillaume-Van Roberge
DJ Wakame (aka Walter Scassolini): After 25 years of activism, the music lover still enjoys playing music on his radio show (dedicated to current independent works) and concocting soundtracks by choosing tracks for the fashion shows and boutiques of the Japanese designer Issey Miyake.
DJ Guillaume-Van Roberge: A writer, musician and playwright, he has also composed music for various projects, ranging from theatre to documentary, via the media arts
