Since the early 1980s he began to mix together cinema, poetry text, and electronic images, creating a new genre called “poetronica”. His video poem operas are generally films produced with the support of specialized teams and cultural centers, such as CICV (Centre de Recherche Pierre Schaeffer in Montbéliard, F), and universities. Videopoetry developed in the 1990s, with short experimental video works and video installations, which vary in typology, length, and structure.
