Interferences – Forty-Four Excuses for Participation and a Zero

This project is both a book and a portable server programmed to open a WiFi network. Your smartphone becomes a sound device by producing an assigned frequency and creating small ephemeral communities. Programming ECAL/Callum Ross

Benoît Rochat – Harmonic Structures

BA GRAPHIC DESIGN

Benoît Rochat – Harmonic Structures

with Nicole Udry, Jonathan Hares

Harmonic Structures is an attempt to develop a modular and musical graphic language that could form the basis of a sound architecture. The first issue reviews information specific to the building and the population of Le Lignon in Geneva, in order to apply it in a two-dimensional musical notation system. Finally, these data are interpreted by a musician using an MPC 1000 to communicate in acoustic terms what precisely constitutes the building.

Loris Briguet – FM42

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

“My project aims to demystify FM synthesis and to offer a new approach to its programming.  After analysing various FM synthesizers and their interface, I identified two major problems:   - The difficulty of understanding how they work  - The complexity of sound exploration  My project offers two objects to remedy these problems: a guide, based on texts in FM Theory & Applications, which enables the user to understand FM synthesis in a theoretical way, and a synthesizer that enables the user to explore the basics of synthesis with a more hands-on approach, thanks to an interface that offers all the controls without “menu diving”. These two objects provide the user with an ideal introduction to electronic music.”

ECAL x Moncler

with Philippe Jarrigeon

Drawing on Moncler’s Alpine heritage, its timeless style, and its technical mastery, the ECAL Bachelor Photography students developed their own interpretation of the brand’s visual language, blending documentary photography with staged scenes, and merging reality with fiction, under the artistic direction of French photographer Philippe Jarrigeon. As part of Paris Photo 2025, the students’ work was showcased at the Moncler boutique on the Champs-Élysées.

Loïc Dupasquier – Blackout

with Guy Meldem, Aurèle Sack

Blackest Ever Black, a British record label, announced it was shutting down in 2019. This project pays tribute to the label through a post-mortem cassette reissue of its ten most outstanding musical releases. These feature two levels of information, a listing of how the tracks make the listeners feel and the barely visible metadata of the releases. The font used is my revival of a typographic drawing by Peter Behrens, which, just like the label did, enables me to take things from the past and make them contemporary.

Pierry Jaquillard – Prelude in ACGT, Chr. 1 to 22 and XY

with Alain Bellet, Christophe Guignard, Gaël Hugo

2018: the recent technological advances pledge an eternal conservation of data. DNA seems to be the new medium for memory. Nevertheless, interpretation and therefore the understanding of this data is crucial. Will we be able to decode it? By giving a new interpretation of this code through music, I seek to discover it. How is it composed? Has it already been composed? This research is materialized by four screens to interact and understand different interpretations of only one code. Between science and music, this project interfaces culture, codes and nature.
