«Zimoun is best compared to a watchmaker of a self-reproducing time constructing his own gauging station.» Radjo Monk

«Using simple and functional components, Zimoun builds architecturally-minded platforms of sound. Exploring mechanical rhythm and flow in prepared systems, his installations incorporate commonplace industrial objects. In an obsessive display of curiously collected material, these works articulate a tension between the orderly patterns of Modernism and the chaotic forces of life. Carrying an emotional depth, the acoustic hum of natural phenomena blends effortlessly with electric reverberation in Zimoun's minimalist constructions.» bitforms nyc

«The sound sculptures and installations of Zimoun are graceful, mechanized works of playful poetry, their structural simplicity opens like an industrial bloom to reveal a complex and intricate series of relationships, an ongoing interplay between the «artificial» and the «organic». It's an artistic research of simple and elegant systems to generate and study complex behaviors in sound and motion. Zimoun creates sound pieces from basic components, often using multiples of the same prepared mechanical elements to examine the creation and degeneration of patterns.» Tim Beck

    STUDIO ZIMOUN commented on Design while converting an existing video (replacing an existing video which is already online)

    Yes it would be great if the customer would have a choice. For instance in our use the old and much more technical version which even showed the process (how far the converting progress already was) worked fine! But this sorry screen looks weird and misplaced inside our straight, clean and minimal design of the website... Many thanks. Nina

    STUDIO ZIMOUN commented on Design while converting an existing video (replace an existing video which is already online)

    Hi there, We appreciate the possibilities very much, to be able to replace / update existing videos! BUT: Since those videos are embeded already on websites etc there's always a moment after uploading it, when the new version is getting converted. During that time (process) the video can't be played and the massage "SORRY This video will be available for viewing shortly" shows up. Earlier this message looked very simple related to its design. But since a while it comes together with a colored Vimeo image in the back. This image is ok as it is, but it's not the aesthetic everybody is looking for. For that reason we would appreciate very much if the user would be able to choose how that looks like. For instance to have the old and simple design of it available too, without any colored images combined. OR EVEN BETTER: it would be fantastic if this process wouldn't need to be public at all: if the old version (which is getting updated) would stay (and work) that long until the new version is converted and ready to play in HD. Many thanks! Nina for Studio Zimoun
