Ares Pedroli – Interceptor

The Golden Shield Project is a censorship and surveillance programme run by the Ministry of Public Security of the People’s Republic of China, which aims to intercept potentially unfavourable computer data by filtering certain keywords in search engines.

Currently, excessive surveillance in China prevents citizens from freely expressing their ideas online.

Interceptor is a variable font that uses a system of ligatures to transform censored words in China into animated symbols. As a result of this process, optical character recognition (OCR) software is unable to detect the meaning of a sentence, so that no censorship can be implemented.

Paul Paturel – Modulat – 2025 #2

by Paul Paturel

Grime Index is an interactive VJ-ing project that centralizes, visualizes, and enables navigation through iconic moments of grime — a chaotic genre born on London’s pirate airwaves. By turning audio data into visual identity and live signage, the project makes a performance-based, oral, and improvised culture more readable. Designed for both newcomers and longtime fans, it is built around three interchangeable modules — MC, instrumental, and lyrics — honoring the culture of sampling, MCing, and mixing. Diarization, transcription, dynamic typography, and real-time effects combine to reveal grime’s living and navigable memory.

Olivia Capol – How Do They Know ?

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

We all use ChatGPT. But why? Perhaps because it seems to have an answer to everything. How Do They Know ? is an interactive experience that invites us to follow the path of each question we ask an AI, from the moment it enters the system until a truth is delivered to us. Three guides are available to take us to the heart of language model mechanisms. Their points of view, sometimes opposing, intersect and contradict each other. What if the way algorithms respond to us influences what we believe? Behind each exchange lies our relationship to human knowledge, what we expect from machines, what they learn from us, and what we decide to believe.

Service Design - 2025

with Angelo Benedetto, Vincent Jacquier, Pauline Saglio, Calypso Mahieu

During the Service Design course, the 3rd year of the Graphic Design, Photography and Media & Interaction Design bachelors had to create multi-media projects. A collaboration of the Visual Communication department which had as subject the SDGs (*Sustainable Development Goals). The theme was called "For a good cause, make the SDGs a reality" and its objective was to allow students to develop a cause that is close to their hearts. Each project consists of at least two different media, one primary and one secondary. These projects could take any form that the students deemed relevant, be it a website, editions, posters, a video sequence or virtual reality.

Dynamic Identity - 2025

with Angelo Benedetto

First-year students designed visual identities for fictional museums. As part of the Dynamic Display course led by Angelo Benedetto, this project led them to create graphic universes that that express the character of each imaginary exhibition site.

Cyprien Valenza – Patterna

by Cyprien Valenza

Patterna is an experimental variable typeface designed around two axes: Weight and Weaving. Inspired by Cassandre's Bifur from the 1930s and the arrangement of threads on Jacquard looms, Patterna is based on a rigorous grid that structures shapes and spacing. Its modular layering system allows for graphic experimentation with variations, making each composition dynamic. Numerous alternates reinforce its formal richness. Patterna challenges fashion conventions by offering a modular, dense typeface designed as both a graphic tool and a writing system.
