Runaway, hide. But what’s going on? Casablanca has never been so empty, so swarming with people, with life. A city of millions of confined people. Zouhair Lalaam and I, therefore, decided to write “Casablanca Run The Covid” a kind of hide and seek with the virus, a ride, a race, a video game on a scooter filmed 360 ° by Zouhair under the Artistic direction of Kamel Ghabte. A film of 10 minutes without filter, raw in order to freeze by the image the extent of the damage of the coronavirus.
Kamel is a digital artist, trainer and consultant who recently created an interactive augmented reality installation for a contemporary art exhibition. Passionate about ecology and the responsible use of technology, he is engaged in environmental art projects, mixing art and technology in a sustainable way. Kamel is an active member of the Land Art community and co-founder of the Unispheres association. He has participated in several Land Art 2.0 projects, notably in Venice for the Bioclimatic Pavilion of the European Union, and in Casablanca where he used artificial intelligence to create an adaptive installation. Kamel also teaches augmented and virtual reality programming to university students. Convinced that art and technology can contribute to a sustainable future, he continues to work on environmental art projects, using his skills in digital imagery, sound and video to raise awareness for the protection of our planet.
