We put on our Production Boots to meet this beautiful artwork with a multi-projector setup from the window of the neighbouring building.
As the artists of Tyxna painted with paints this masterpiece over a surface of a 10 storey building in Rillieux-la-Pape; we were honoured by their trust in us to paint with light upon this grandiose beauty!
The Sound Design and Visual contents for the Inauguration were designed, developed and curated by Tyxna during their Art Residency; and it was a joy to work with such beautiful materials and to add Mosquito Massala contents and live mix for the evening!
The opening event was a celebration for the public as well as for the artists from the Festival and Art Residency. A Block Party at the base of the Fresque, was followed by the projection and live visuals for the soirée of 29 October 2022.

Conservatoire du Grand Chalon
By mosquitomassala | On 27/09/2024 | In Exhibition / Interactive Design
Mosquito Massala had the pleasure to work with Jean-Jacques Bénaily to create Two Visual Stories for Two Musical Masterpieces performed at the Conservatoire du Grand Chalon in January 2020. Viktor Furiani and Samvida Nanda drove all over France (with a focus on Burgundy) collecting visual elements of Architecture through Photography; and re-imagined and further animated these elements as breathing and growing mandalas to interact and interpret the live musical performances.
This was achieved through the exploring of Architecture through Video Feedback (a Generative Digital Art Process which observes the interactions and movements of light and generates mathematical fractal and cellular forms).
Event Programme :
Steve Reich Electric Counterpoint (version pour guitare solo et bande)
Jean-Marc Weber - Toi et moi pour deux clarinettes basses et électronique (création)

Bonjour India!
By mosquitomassala | On 20/08/2021 | In Exhibition / Interactive Design
Mosquito Massala had the pleasure to work on 2 art installations as part of the
Immersive, Multimedia and Interactive Journey for the
Bonjour India: The Experience Project, curated by Institut français India and SpaceMatters!
This year we celebrate Innovation, Creativity, Partnership across India and France!
A pavilion that travelled over 3500 kilometres; a celebration in 3 cities (Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata); and 1,80,000 visitors who joined this discovery of knowledge and stories.
Along with French Ambassador, Alexandre Ziegler;
Minister of state for External Affairs, MJ Akbar; Minister of state for External Affairs, Jean-Yves Le Drian;
and Counsellor for Cooperation and Cultural Affairs, Dr Bertrand de Hartingh were present at the launch.
Mosquito Massala Team: Samvida Nanda, Viktor Furiani, VJ Rahil, Nelson OJ.
About the Installations:
THE TRIPTYCH TALES
The gears turn. The light flickers. And the whirring sound portends one of the greatest innovations of
science and storytelling: Cinema. France has brought many a revolution into the light of day. One of
their greatest strengths is their spirit of collaboration and culture. The friendship of India and France
has been celebrated with partnerships across Design, Art, Technology and so much more. This Film is
such a collaboration.
Special thanks to Chinese Man, Dualist Inquiry, and the Sandscape Art Collective for their
contributions towards the soundtrack of the Film.
The Soundtrack:
Nindadli [ Talab Khan Barna & Lucid Raaga ]
SleepWalker [ Dualist Inquiry ]
Maläd [ Chinese Man Feat. Ahmad Zahir, Viveick Rajagopalan & Naviin Gandharv ]
Kalbelia Moon [ Nirma Devi & Lucid Raaga ]
While exploring the growth of institutions that bring clean water to the villages of India, to missions
that take humanity into space, the diverse stories also call attention to the effect on nature, and remind
us to seek a more sustainable route towards progress.
This Film is made thanks to the collaboration of footage and animations from various Institutions, Art
Collectives, Designers, Artists and Technicians.
This Project is made by the Mosquito Massala, in collaboration with Institut Français and
SpaceMatters.

MANDALITERATURE
Across time and space, the wish to communicate has been one of the reasons we have told and retold
stories through so many languages. But how does meaning manifest across languages? Is what is left
unsaid, more important than the words which are spoken? With such a multitude of queries into
language itself, this audio-visual installation is an artistic representation of how things can sometimes
get lost in translation. The Soundscape explores dialogues across languages, and is mixed by Lucid
Raaga; and the Projection is a Mandala of Text across languages created by a generative analog
process called Video Feedback.
While some things are translated literally, and show how meanings change or get lost in translation,
certain proverbs from one language had an equivalent proverb in another, showing certain universal
messages across culture and language.
This Project is made by The Mosquito Massala, in collaboration with Institut Français and
SpaceMatters.
