Art documentaire et politique à l'ère du numérique : pratiques, esthétiques, diffusion

In the 21st century digital era in which we are living, the Art of making documentaries has undergone profound transformations. This new form of Art may be found in very diverse web creations, in museums or galleries, and even on stage. DOPONUM Project attempts to measure the political impacts of those changes - by taking into account practises and techniques being used, creation processes and results, their flow, but also their impact - and it also aims at highlighting the relationship between this « creative bubble » and the artistic aim that affects Politics and Art together. 3 approaches are now looked upon : - First, how digital technique impacts practises. - Second, how « light » and mobile technology induces aesthetic changes. - Third, how Art is broadcast and received thus contributing to political awakening. By bringing together university and post-doctoral researchers, coming from the movie industry or audiovisual media, directly from the stage, or from the world of visual and liberal Arts, from Political Science or Foreign Languages, DOPONUM seeks to strengthen professionnal networks, so as to evaluate the influence of digital technology on contemporary representations left by documentaries, that embody a real counterpower to traditionnal media.
