Puce Moment

 
Gradueted of fine Arts school and The Fresnoy, national studio of contemporary arts for one and  a university and musical course for the other, Nicolas Devos and Penelope Michel founded the experimental electro-rock band Cercueil in 2005, project with which they toured in France and abroad. At the same time they created Puce Moment, a project envisaged as a laboratory open to experimentation, multi-disciplinary meeting and decompartmentalization. They have been working together for more than fifteen years around protean projects whose main theme is the relation of sound to image and the conditions of emergence of the narration and its perception. Their musical practice is mutant, it can be written or improvised, vocal, instrumental, electronic or electroacoustic, depending on the framework of the projects, from scenic creations, live soundtracks, sound and visual creations, performances, or through their collaborations. By appealing to the collective memory, they convoke through their past and contemporary mythical and mythological figures. Their plastic and sensory approach to sound leads them to design immersive devices.
