kondition pluriel was created after Martin Kusch and Marie-Claude Poulin met while participating in the multidisciplinary research project “Körper-technik/Body-technology” in Berlin in 1999. The two decided to collaborate further, basing themselves in Montreal.

They began their research with the aim of transcending each of their disciplines – Martin’s work in the field of media art involving responsive environments and installations, and Marie-Claude’s background in movement, dance and scientific concepts – to create a new artistic language. They reached the conclusion that their field of experimentation required a platform for physical and technological research forming a laboratory type situation. In the spring of 2000 kondition pluriel was founded.

By using choreography and technological tools developed specifically for its projects, kondition pluriel creates interdisciplinary works. Movement, performance, interactive technology and digital video are combined on an equal footing constituting new spaces from which a common language emerges.
