CrashTest

KRRSHTST: Experimental projects in the fields of art, writing, life, science and self destruction.

IN VITRO

**One of our first projects was a magazine dedicated to multilingual writing. Read more about it here: TLAONGUE



**The next CRASH TEST publication was dedicated to the language of Communication in experimental writing. Read more about it here: No LoG


 
**An exciting online project known as Zswound was created by CrashTest and lasted from January 2007 to May 2008.  If you are interested in distorted, hybrid and polymorfluous zswounds, pay us a visit.   The list of contributors is quite amazing. Check it out.



**A polymorphous project was undertaken with  UberTrashung, a bizarre on-site mag-installation.



**Latest project: Atroxhity, a tribute to JGBallard’s AtocityExhibition.

IN VIVO

**May 2008: FluxNord-FluxSud 08 (+The CarTeD Picture Show): performance and publication of a card.


**April-May 2007: presentation and installation of UberTrashung (see above). 


**A brief review is available here in DAZIBAO (Agence Régionale du Livre PACA): It tells you nothing really except that we do things and that many other guys do the same.  CrashTest has also been featured or referenced on the following sites: Selby’s list, Poetic Invention, Maintenants Synapse, Paolo Albani’s site,  CIPM links, etc.


**April 2006, CRASH TEST was present at “06 en scène” (presentation of multilingual poetry + performance). The press release said the following: “Poésie(s), Art Action, Performance ” réunira de nombreux poètes, artistes, théoriciens et cinéastes à l’occasion de lectures, de projections vidéo, de performances, de discussions dans un ” dispositif installé pour l’action ” d’Olivier Garcin : Revue de poésie(s). Le programme établi couvre largement les avant-gardes et les émergences les plus pointues opérant dans le département. Ainsi de Fluxus (1962) à Crash Test (2006) en passant par les opérateurs du Garage 103 (1975), du Jardin littéraire (1986), d’ averse.com (1996), de Espace à vendre (2004) et des mouvances intermédiaires, imprécises mais réelles : ” étonnances ” et ” hétéroclicitées ” du domaine poétique. Le programme est ” établi ” mais l’esprit du lieu est ” l’ouverture “.”
