Mazecorp reflects a maze-like construction which refers to the possible relationships between cinema, poetry, and networking. That maze has four starting points, encoded by terms representing witnesses of arbitrary arrests. : “a present – une arrestation – au matin – une memoire” (“by now – an arrest – in the morning – a memory”). The arbitrary arrest of the photographic act is noticed for photographies are the key elements of mazecorp’ story. Also the arbitrary arrest of the writer is clearly intimated since the verses of the poet are featured as sub-titles of a silent film. Above all, handled by the armed forces, the real discretionary arrest of any human who infringes a law is omnipresent. Mazecorp actually pays a tribute to Samira Adamu who was executed by the Belgian armed forces. In the current release of Mazecorp (volume I), 12 films no bigger then 400kb each are presented. As for other works featured on confettiS.org, we incite the visitor-actor to participate to the creation process of Mazecorp. The visitor wishing to be an actor may send either a text or a photograph, which is then be integrated to the current work. Texts and photographs must be sent to xavier@confettiS.org. Mazecorp will eventually be presented in situ as an installation, as soon as we identify a space that is able to accommodate the installation, where the perception of the audience depends on where it situates within the space. Mazecorp is also regularly released on CDRom which are available on request. (dac., 2003)
