Léa Verboux – In Other Words

by Léa Verboux

Thirteen million works published for free, without publishers or institutional recognition, yet read and rewritten by millions of readers. In Other Words is an anthology dedicated to fanfiction, documenting this practice in its various aspects: its codes, its communities, and the sheer volume of work circulating online. This publication also gathers texts that bear witness to the freedom offered by this parallel literature, where existing works become material to be transformed, extended, corrected, or reinterpreted. By confronting the codes of the traditional book with those of digital culture, In Other Words questions the boundaries between original work and rewriting, and proposes to offer it legitimacy, space, as well as a tangible form.

Genius Loci - Spirit of the place

with Nicole Udry

Genius Loci, or the spirit of the place, refers to the unique identity or essence of a location. In architecture, this principle suggests that the specific characteristics of a place should be reflected and extended in a design. In the case of the second-year graphic design students, they have applied this principle to communication projects focused on promoting or extending the identity of a particular place through design. Their work likely explores how to visually capture and communicate the essence of a space, using graphic design elements that resonate with the architectural features or history of the place.
