Petiet project (upcoming 2012)
The Petiet project is a European project based on the digital technologies position in museums. The museum choose is the Petiet* museum. The purpose : develop a new vision of the museum by producing an interactive system.
Petiet museum has now become the "framework" of is own collection. To preserve is own intimacy and avoid too much visual or graphical installation, the Tazasproject offer to visitors a fresh look at the works hanging. By installing a sound device, the Tazasproject will produce record audio collected during meetings with several people from the town of Limoux. Records of persons would then be played when visitors will walk inside the museum. To prolong the visit and communicate these bits of memory, the Tazasproject proposes to make a book as an object to renew an aural and visual experience with media such as phone (iPhone / smartphone) or touch pad.
* Located in a Atelier Petiet family, the museum consists of two terraced houses grouped and transformed for the occasion, respecting the style of the late 19e century. The six pieces in the museum have high ceilings, walls clad in brightly painted and decorated with pilasters. The floors are made of old tiles, lighting is achieved through the large windows of the original ceiling. The museum is designed to works of the second half of the 19e century, but allows some exceptions. Various movements in painting have prevailed in as orientalism, academicism, impressionism, pointillism and neo-impressionism.
