Hide / Reveal

Hide / Reveal

It is around the theme “Hide / Reveal” that we spent this week of workshop with Ines Alpha and Aaron Jablonski. The idea was to learn around the software “Spark AR” in order to develop a face filter for Instagram. The results presented here are the result of a week’s work for the 2CVMID and 3CVMID students.

You can find all these filters and try them on the Instagram @ecal_mid

Betaverse – 2025

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

Betaverse – 2025

with Mario Von Rickenbach

Using a mixed reality headset, the students used their surroundings as playground. Through creative gestures, each experiment proposes a way of interacting with the environment.

Folklore Fusion

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

Betaverse – 2026

with Mario Von Rickenbach

This project brings together a series of experiments created by students exploring the intersection between physical reality and immaterial imaginary worlds. Using a mixed reality headset, they transform their environment into experimental spaces where real elements become supports for digital creations.

Jorge Reis – Alter – 2022

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

Jorge Reis – Alter – 2022

with Alain Bellet, Christophe Guignard, Gaël Hugo, Laura Nieder, Pauline Saglio

Alter provides users with a platform to take control of an alter-ego, whose virtual identity is based on archetypes observed on Instagram. The primary intention of the project is to explore the possibility that social networks offer to live experiences that are not our own. Thus, Alter highlights the typical profiles that have been instituted on Instagram over the years. These different archetypes incorporate various ways of showing off, staging oneself or communicating. These archetypes influence, despite ourselves, the way we use certain networks. The project consists of two distinct parts: on the one hand, the observation and study of these different archetypes, and on the other, their use in a webapp.
