Loris Briguet – FM42

“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.”

Evan Kelly – Invisible Network

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

Evan Kelly – Invisible Network

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

Invisible Network is a portable device that makes the invisible and autonomous communications of machines perceptible and tangible. The way they interact with each other is akin to the modes of human communication, thus creating a real social network of machines. This device mediates between users and the machines around them. Via the screen it transmits fragments of its continuous and silent communications in the form of human social metaphors.

Andreas Abbaszadeh – KIN

by Andreas Abbaszadeh

Streaming made music infinite and weightless: access to everything, ownership of nothing. This dynamic frayed the bond between artists and the people who listen to them. KIN rematerializes listening. It's a portable player that holds only a handful of tracks, like a mixtape. Its magnetic connectors let two devices touch to exchange their music, hand to hand: sharing becomes a gesture between two people again. Built around scarcity and ritual; custom electronics, a translucent body, physical controls, a screen that reflects light rather than emitting it, KIN slows the circulation of music to give back its value and its human weight.
Constellations

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

Constellations

Constellations is a one-week workshop held by Béatrice Lartigue for the first year Bachelor M&ID students in November 2018. The idea behind the workshop is to explore the invisible physical process of electrical conduction. Using Touchboards, students explored different ways of giving form to this idea of electrical conduction by creating diverse projects using sound, video projection and/or installation.
Guillaume Giraud – Goko

Guillaume Giraud – Goko

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

The Goko is a digital musical instrument that explores new ways of playing music. It is a chord machine in the form of a MIDI controller. This tool promotes and facilitates the composition of chords. It enables beginners to play while having fun and offers professionals a new understanding and visualisation of the rules of musical harmony.
