Scope and Contents

Internet: For Michel Meyer, everything started in the mid 1980s when he founded the multimedia group Wonder Products with fellow artists from the Beaux Arts School of Paris. The group produced avant-garde video art and staged art performances with multi screen displays that were shown in numerous international festivals. Its most famous events were an exhibition art the modern Art Museum of Paris and a series of performances at the Theatre de la Bastille. Naturally, Michel got interested in CGA graphics from the start and was one of the first French directors to work with digital 3D and 2D techniques with companies like Ex Machina, Sogitec or Mc Guff. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
