On the occasion of Boris’ participation in RIT in Marseille and the Marché des Imaginaires Numériques, we were delighted to collaborate with Radio Grenouille to highlight his work and thoughts.

“We’d better start believing in the digital objects and their world as real, because we’re going to be living in it soon enough.”

“That’s the great thing about the XR community, that they’re so helpful and so collaborative (…).”

“Our whole reality is already layered. It’s already a science fiction type of reality.”

“The tools we work with are always somewhat alive, almost as if there’s a ghost in them subtly guiding the process.”

“XR can also be about… showing a layer that was already there but that we couldn’t see before…”

“XR is the combination of theater, fine arts, and video game culture, it takes from all the other art fields and puts them together in a new medium.”

“With virtuality, the most interesting thing is that you can make things that are not possible in our physical world.”

“The connection but also the disconnection you can create between a body in digital space and a body in physical space is I think the most interesting part of XR at the moment in the art space.”

“AR holds a significant allure due to its mixed reality nature. It allows for an augmented layer to be added to the user’s environment, creating a unique and immersive experience.”

“We really need to think about XR beyond the headset and the smartphone”

“With VR you can really get very close to the people’s stories and representations.”
