Zapping unit emphasizes the habits of consuming images while offering each user the possibility to make his/her own selection. This experience, similar to TV zapping, aims to provide an alternative for short video screenings.
The zapping unit works as a self-contained space that imposes to the viewer its own conditions of use.
The video programme is displayed as a mosaic on the screen. Each page-screen shows 20 thumbnails that can be selected by using the arrows of the remote control.
While access to images and information is growing rank, Zapping unit offers to focus the viewer's attention on specific artist's video work.
The unit, as a self-contained and self-sufficient space, will be travelling in various places in France and abroad and it will connect a series of individuals.
Being the link in between different viewers, Zapping unit indexes the creation of a "delayed" community.
