It's About Time

Digital clocks with no temporal reference points, simple representations of the passage of time. Developed on the principle of screensavers, these projects are programmed to evolve graphically according to the time of day.

EMPTYING

The project features a computer that feels an emptiness caused by the departure of its owner. Desperate to see him go, the computer starts writing to him in the hope of getting him to come back. Faced with no response, it decides to resort to more extreme measures, threatening to delete files and even corrupt itself, destroying itself little by little.

Owari no nai tōri

Owari no nai tōri is a screensaver that transports us to a ghost town in the heart of Japan. We stroll down an endless street, punctuated by the various colorful facades, electric wires, cherry blossoms, azaleas, cats, irises and Nipponese signs. It's a quiet, contemplative journey.

LET THE DATASET CHANGE YOUR MINDSET - 2025

BA MEDIA & INTERACTION DESIGN

LET THE DATASET CHANGE YOUR MINDSET - 2025

by Steve Bouillant, Teo Grajqevci, Yann Müller

Data has the power to reshape the way we interpret the world. Starting from a simple question or hypothesis, this project explores how visualization can reveal patterns that are not immediately visible. The result is a fully functional data visualization experience with an interactive interface, including a mobile controller that allows users to manipulate the display in real time. Designed and programmed by second-year Bachelor students in Media & Interaction Design as part of a course taught by Gaël Hugo, the project demonstrates how interactive visualization can make complex data more accessible and engaging.
