Selected for a cross-border residency programme organised by Rotondes, the City of Metz, and Bliiida, with support from INTERREG IV Greater Region as part of the GRACE project, artist Amélie Samson and the Minuit 47 collective brought their tools over to Rotondes in December to work on their respective projects for two weeks. The artists are now ready to present Multiplica Lab
visitors with a first iteration of their works before continuing their residency at Bliiida in Metz.
For one day only, the public is invited to experience Amélie Samson's installation Parasites, as well as the musical installation AURA – Accessible Unified Responsive Audio, developed by Minuit 47.
Visitors’ reactions, questions, and comments will provide the artists with food for thought for the remainder of the residency programme in Metz, up until the presentation of the advanced stages of each project at Bliiida on June 25, 2026.
About Parasites, by Amélie Samson
The Parasites installation gives physical form to the digital noise that clutter our daily lives. Using recordings of familiar sounds (clicks, notifications, whirring fans), Amélie Samson creates eerie, organic creatures that seem to breathe and feed off this cacophony.
Powered by pumps and attached to discarded devices, these creatures embody our sensory overload, calling into question the omnipresence of digital noise in an attempt to short-circuit our habitual perceptions. Rather than just representing a phenomenon, Parasites confronts us with what we have learned to ignore: the symptoms of a system that feeds on our attention.
For the sound design of Parasites, Amélie Samson collaborated with Luxembourgish musician Ryvage.
