Presentation

This autumn, the castle is making Vincennes the capital of the digital arts with an event that's as spectacular as it is original. Contemporary installations in the setting of the monument will gently prepare your senses for the immersive experience that follows.

In the heart of the Sainte-Chapelle, a colourful sphere called "Lune Dichroïque" will captivate the eye:

[...] Dichroic matter is a poignant metaphor for the human condition, a condition in which we constantly navigate between multiple identities, refleching or absorbing the influences around us depending on the context.

It reminds the observer that, just as the moon does not emit its own light but refletes that of the sun, we too are dichroic beings, transforming ourselves in response to our environment and others [...]
