Magic: Fauxfaire Fauxvoir

A proponent of a magic that awakens the spirits, Thierry Collet conceives singular experiences, which enchant us as much as they make us look differently at the world around us. FAUXFAIRE FAUXVOIR is an immersive experience, where magic and digital technology intertwine to question our beliefs. Here, Thierry Collet tackles the screens and applications that are increasingly interposed between us and reality, to the point of influencing our perception of the world and its understanding. Three magicians specialising in scams and mental manipulation question the tools that transmit information to us: our senses, the cameras of our phones, our connected objects... But is opening our eyes enough to dispel our illusions?

In this original show, the public is invited to follow a magical and interactive journey in three stages: "practical work" experiments to DO and test our senses and our brain, a conference-show to SEE and discover how digital technologies influence our perception of reality, then a spectacular finale to marvel and BE FOOLED. This immersion in the manufacture of pretences provides our critical minds with a lasting tool in the face of manipulation.
