Created in 2016, HAL Art is a team of audiovisual engineers and technicians, gathered to bring solutions to projects in contemporary art, digital art and various cultural domains.
With our expertise in audiovisual, show control, programming and electronics, we work with artists and institutions to bring to life ambitious and outstanding projects.
About
Starting with sound work and sound system design for artist videos and exhibitions, Hal Art's activity quickly expanded with technological expertise for contemporary art projects: engineering and audiovisual supervising, design of dedicated show control systems, programming/production/design of tailor-made computer and electronic tools. All of these skills make it possible to manage the uniqueness of each contemporary art project, in France and abroad.

Skills
Programming and Electronics
To go along with the artist's intentions, HAL Art develops tailor-made solutions in computing and electronics. Python programming, web, Touch Designer, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, electronic circuits... everything that allows projects to become reality.
Sound mix and system design
With a long-standing experience in sound post-production for the cinema, HAL Art masters the process of mix and sound design. And as the purpose of any work is to be exhibited, we always support artists and institutions in making the best choices of sound system and acoustics.
Show Control
Because an exhibition is often the articulation of many works, temporalities, universes, their entanglement must be shaped. For this, we take care of the management and automation of exhibitions and complex works, according to the rules desired by the artists. Orchestrating sound, video, interactivity, motors, lights... everything is possible.
