0003cellar_door.jpgImagine a vast artistic universe, or wcolossal organism which is inter-active, a person in a console, can control different happenings, around the space, entire 4000 square meter surface Lights can be controlled, music can come on, all at the flick of a switch.

Carla Bruni--Dumped from IVY Paris MYSPACE
Written by I V Y paris   
0001bruni.jpgI would just like to apologise to anyone who has recently visited the I V Y paris Myspace site and heard the Carla Bruni song "Quelqu'un m'a dit". It will be removed in protest against the farcical antics of our President. Remember what Voltaire said Sarko - "The secret of being a bore is to tell everything."
