Vincent Moon has back again to Jakarta. After travelling around Indonesia for almost 3 months, he wants to show some of his new films that he made during his adventure in Indonesia.

**Vincent Moon was born in Paris in 1979.  He made use of the Internet and developed various projects related to music, directing lo-fi videos forClogs, Sylvain Chauveau, Barzin, The National. In 2006, he created with Chryde the Take Away Shows project, La Blogotheque’s video podcast (takeawayshows.com). This series of outdoor/wild documentaries consists in improvised video sessions with musicians, set in unexpected locations and broadcast freely on the web. In 4 years, he managed to shoot over two hundred clips with bands like REM, Arcade Fire, Sufjan Stevens, Beirut, Grizzly Bear and many more.
Exploring new forms and territories being not only a metaphor, Vincent Moon has been on the road for more than 2 years now, exploring the world with a camera in his backpack, and documenting his quest of sounds. He is developing now a lifetime project: to document local energies around the world, as temporary areas, often one shot performances/films, where the limits between creators and audience is blurred as much as possible. Fighting against the idea of professionalism and trying to develop his work without money engaged, involving local creators as much as possible, dealing with the new notion of amateurism in the 21st century, a lot is still to come.
