Luc Courchesne: Light, Time and Obscurity

Luc Courchesne: Light, Time and Obscurity

Luc Courchesne is a pioneer of digital and immersive art in Canada. An innovator in interactive video and immersive installations, he was able to invent his own sensory immersion devices in addition to scripting experiences that involve public participation.

For this series of interviews with Luc, I was looking for a different and straightforward approach, frank, intimate and friendly. I think I won the bet thanks to the generosity of the main subject.
