Hi/Shalom/Salutare/Salam

Nous sommes en l’an de grâce 3012. 
le deuxième jour du deuxième mois 5:55 GMT
Après un siècle d’errance, nous entrons dans l’ère du Mass Land.
Ce Nouveau Monde se réduit à ”7 Nations”. 
Le Ministère a pris le pouvoir, ces Nations y coexistent et s’organisent. 
Purgatory Palace  reste le dernier témoignage des civilisations et croyances antiques.
Le passé n’existe plus, la transcription de nos découvertes nous amène à croire que le Purgatoire est  bien réel.
Les reliques récoltées restituent la cohérence des Livres, elles sont cédées contre rétributions et deviennent indulgences, celles-ci permettent l’ouverture des Portes.

Mass Confusion

Mass Confusion, graphic and design studio founded
in 2008 by Elise Flory and Farid Mekbel, based in Paris.
Their Five Senses:

Art and creative direction
Illustration/ graphic design
Web design
Video
Sound design

Not easy to put in the good box…

Mass Confusion is the combination, the union of two “iconoclast neurotics”, going back and forth between their differences… Baroque and psychedelic landscapes, epileptic videos, visual adrenalin…

Reference’s schedule: “Dada” breakfast, Surrealist lunch, Push Pin tea time, Art Deco drinks and candlelight dinner with junk culture… without forgetting our five protein bars of John Whitney’s video’s experiment.
