THE STORY

The company Fheel Concepts was created in October 2016 by Corinne Linder, with the wish to bring different art forms together all through the fundamental premises of contemporary circus. To create playful and unconventional work that moves people to discover new worlds. The work is inspired by thematics found in everyday life ; example food, body & mind or new technology.

CORINNE LINDER - Creative Director

For me circus is an interdisciplinary form of art, a place for creativity and innovation. I love challenges, and therefore I am always searching for new environments and concepts.

MARJOLAINE GRENIER - General Technicien

Interested in new media and live entertainment, Cie Fheel Concepts allows me to work on different aspects of creation and environments which are very stimulating from a personal and professional point of view.

HOLD ON

Nomadic VR

A visual experience in virtual reality about contemporary circus.

Based on Corinne Linder's life experiences, Hold On transports viewers-users into the world of contemporary circus and the aerial disciplines. A opportunity to discover the different sensations usually experienced by artists on stage: the notion of risk, joy, adrenaline or danger.

This experience is based on the fragility of the moment. A moment when the fall seems inevitable, and which, when it occurs, suspends forever the grace of the moment.

Post Production: Novelab

Genre: Virtual Reality

Length: 15 min

Minimum age: 13 years old

INFORMATION LEAFLET HOLD ON

Concepts project “SonotoolKit Cirque” was chosen to be one of the 7 Lauréats by the Ministry of Culture and Communication (France), a grant dedicated to Innovative Digital Services.

The SonoToolkit Cirque is a complete device intended to extend the sound possibilities in contemporary circus. The device is used to capture, amplify and transform the sounds emitted by circus artists. Inspired by the work of sound technology in virtual reality (VR) this new innovative device responds to a lack of tools for sound creation in contemporary circus.

Sono Toolkit Cirque is distributed from La Grainerie (Toulouse France) beginning of September 2018 onwards.

Available for companies during residence periods at La Grainerie (Toulouse, France)
