Zied Meddeb Hamrouni (artist name Shinigami San) is a multidisciplinary artist working in the crossing between images, sound and space. Parallel to his architectural and cinematographic academic paths, his music is deeply influenced by IDM and Dub music, and in his audiovisual performances he explores the link between time, space and emotions. His work as an experimental filmmaker and editor is leading him through the new boundaries of virtual reality, and his latest explorations on virtual reality cinema look into the ways in which image, sound and space seem to merge.
