U.F.O.G.O. Wind Turbines – 2023 In 2023, the significant role of renewable energies in tackling the environmental crisis is blatant. In this context, wind power has once again been presented as a promising avenue for regions seeking to transition to renewable energy. However, concerns about their visual intrusion on surrounding environments pose a significant obstacle to their deployment. From a design perspective, this aesthetical factor is not insurmountable. On the contrary, it highlights the need for greater consideration of how we shape these technologies and integrate them into the environment and our lives. This project, completed by 16 MA Product Design Students of ECAL, has set out to explore how wind turbines can fit into natural landscapes and cultures not only sensitively, but beautifully – if we focus on their design. To complete the project effectively, a case study location was required. Fogo Island (Newfoundland, Canada), described locally as "this rock in the battering Northern Sea," was chosen due to its natural beauty, abundant wind, and tight-knit community of approximately 2,500 inhabitants. The island s climate and geography make it ideal for wind turbines. Additionally, Fogo Island is home to Shorefast, a non-profit organization dedicated to building a sustainable, renewable economy for the island. In October 2022, the students and tutors of ECAL visited and immersed themselves in Fogo Island. The project resulted in eight speculative yet practical wind turbine designs, considerately informed by various perspectives. U.F.O.G.O. is a sustainability project grounded in reality, but not limited by what already is. Collaboration Partners: Shorefast HEIG-VD/School of Management and Engineering Vaud (Marc Pellerin, Philippe Morey and Marco Viviani) Media Partner: Disegno Funding: Summer University Programme of the Board of Higher Education (DGES) State of Vaud HES-SO Recherche Transdisciplinaire en Durabilite (under the project title INTEGRATED WIND TURBINES )
Beyond The Surface – 2023 Under the guidance of 3D artist Vincent Schwenk, second-year students skillfully created an abstract animation centered on the theme of relaxation.

ECAL AT VISIONS DU REEL: Masterclass and films,21–30.04.2023,Théâtre de Marens, Nyon As part of the film festival Visions du Réel (April 21 to 30) in Nyon, Lucrecia Martel will give a masterclass on Tuesday, April 25, organized in partnership with La Cinémathèque suisse. Four films from ECAL Cinema Department students and alumni will also be part of the programmation. MASTERCLASS: LUCRECIA MARTEL Filmmaker and screenwriter Salta, Argentina Tuesday, April 25, 2pm Usine à Gaz 2, Nyon Visions du Réel s guest of honour Lucrecia Martel will give a masterclass, which will explore her body of work and her relationship with reality. A retrospective of her films will also be presented during the edition. Lucrecia Martel gained international fame with her first feature length film La ciénaga (2001), shot in her home region, and has since embodied the resurgence of Argentinian film, both nationally and internationally. The director s filmography, which consists of 4 feature length films and 25 titles in total (including different kinds of projects), has constantly made a mark on her country in a post-dictatorial context, as well as at the most prestigious festivals. Lucrecia Martel s films use a highly sensual cinematographical grammar to examine the existential crisis of the Argentinian middle classes, the inner workings of society and the country s suffocating social mechanism, as well as post-colonial issues. She achieves all this while relentlessly evoking, implicitly, the history of her country and the ghosts that inhabit it. Her attention to detail – particularly to sound, noise and dialogues – and the kaleidoscopic approach of her work are in keeping with a dual tradition that is both oral and adventurous in cinematographical terms, steeped in a joyous cinephilia. Rooted in the filmmaker s very familiar territories and experiences, Lucrecia Martel s body of work borrows from a multitude of genres and offers a rich and fascinating hybridisation of fiction and reality. After Terminal Norte in 2021, she is currently working on new non-fiction feature length film that should be released in 2023. Moderated by Emilie Bujès, artistic director of Visions du Réel and Paolo Moretti, head of ECAL Cinema Department. An event in collaboration with La Cinémathèque suisse Text: Vision du Réel FILMS In the occasion of Visions du Réel from April 21 to 30, 4 films from ECAL Cinema Department and alumni are programmed.

Fiction film workshop with Thierry de Peretti The 2022 fiction film workshop was lead by Thierry de Peretti. Head of workshop: Related workshops : (cinematography) (editing) "For the fiction workshop of the second year class that the ECAL film department entrusted me with, I proposed to Camille Anker, Mégane Brugger, Pol Barrelet, Naïla Ebinger, Benjamin Eggenberger, Matteo Friberg, Donika Gashi, Rose Higorom, MariaLuisa Vaz, Hervé Ossent, to think together about the idea of "adaptation". Being myself in the throes of the exercise with my next feature film, adapted from a novel, it was a way to connect in the most obvious way with them. When we talk about adaptation we often think of the novel, but everything can be adapted, a play, a poem, a short story, a film, a part or a few lines of a novel, an article or an interview, a memory, a dream, a text that we have written ourselves. What seems important to me is the way in which one translates, understands, betrays or is faithful. I also asked them to be as economical as possible in the means they used to shoot: few shots, no camera movements, no special effects, no external (artificial) light, as few locations as possible. We were going to work together on what would be some of their first films and I wanted to encourage them to make simple, quick, clean experiments, free from the will to seduce: films of self-taught people. I was deeply touched to see how each one of them took up the exercise, sometimes with an imperious and immediate intuition, other times by taking a steeper and more worried path. Today, ten new, free proposals remain, which in the end care little about the final result. These proposals are all clear and risky, both poetically and technically: they are films behind which we recognize each of the future filmmakers they will be tomorrow."

ECAL Milano 2023: U.F.O.G.O.,18–23.04.2023,Spazio Orso 16, Milano On the occasion of the Milan Design Week (17-23 April 2023), ECAL presents U.F.O.G.O., an exhibition that provides a solution for a better integration of wind turbines in our landscapes. In 2023, the significant role of renewable energies in tackling the energy crisis is blatant. In this context, wind turbines are once again seen as a promising idea. However, concerns about their environmental and social impact represent a significant obstacle to their deployment: how can we respond to the problem of their visual intrusion in the landscape? ECAL addresses this issue by emphasising the importance of design in the creative process. Convinced that, should design be placed at the heart of the thought process, wind turbines could fit into our landscapes not only sensitively, but beautifully, Master Product Design students present eight innovative projects. In October 2022, sixteen Master students travelled to Fogo Island (Newfoundland, Canada), a particularly windy region whose climate makes it an ideal location for the deployment of environmentally friendly electricity generation devices. In collaboration with the Shorefast Foundation of Fogo Island, the young designers immersed themselves in the landscape and explored ways to meet the needs of the inhabitants, while taking into account logistical imperatives and environmental constraints. Produced in consultation with engineers from HEIG-VD/School of Management and Engineering Vaud, the models integrate the technical, technological and legal principles necessary for their implementation. Through their subtle design, they bring innovative, reality-based solutions, favouring their acceptance by local populations. Depending on the project, the wind turbines respond to existing problems or current needs. EVIND is designed to enable the charging of electric cars. PNEUM, whose structure is actually a greenhouse, supports food production and self-sufficiency. PYRE offers an alternative to expensive imported building materials through 3D printing. WINDSEED is an offshore wind turbine with a structure that supports seaweed farming – a booming economy on the island. Others tell the story of Fogo Island, its long history of fishing industry and its unique architecture. The island is home to old fish processing factories that could become the foundation of RR REUSE, a model that enhances cultural and historical heritage. CLIFFHANGER seeks to approximate the architecture of the island s traditional stilt houses. FOGO FLAGS, decorated with flags and located on the edge of the coastline, positions itself as the symbol of Fogo, providing a first impression for visitors upon their arrival. For air safety reasons, wind turbines can only be white, but FLO bypasses this restriction with a relief texture that features a palette of colours when viewed from the ground, becoming a landmark in the landscape. U.F.O.G.O. is the presentation of these eight prospective but realistic projects, which open new paths and push boundaries. As a media partner of the exhibition, design journal Disegno has presented the research and its results in a publication. In collaboration with the Shorefast Foundation of Fogo Island (Newfoundland, Canada) et la HEIG-VD/School of Engineering and Management. As a media partner of the exhibition, design journal Disegno has presented the research and its results in a publication available at the exhibition site.
ECAL MILANO 2023: ECAL for Schätti,18–23.04.2023,Assab One On the occasion of the Milan Design Week (17-23 April 2023), ECAL and the Swiss lighting brand Schätti present five playful and innovative portable lamps. ECAL for Schätti is a inspiring collection created by ECAL s Master students in Product Design, under the guidance of Camille Blin, head of the programme, Jörg Boner, designer and Thomas Schätti, co-owner of the company Schätti. In the lighting industry, Schätti is synonymous with high quality manufacture and proven know-how. The brand is driven by a modernist vision and a fresh perspective: “The lighting industry is in upheaval; LED technology is the center of attention. A significant research and development effort is devoted to this technology. Light is being redefined.” A premise that ECAL students followed to create portable, battery powered LED lamps. The result is a multifunctional collection featuring the potential of this technology. Collapsible or foldable, wall or desk lamp, portable and rechargeable, indoor or outdoor: the selection translates Schätti expertise and ECAL students creative minds.
ECAL MILANO 2023: Junkyard Diving,17–23.04.2023,House of Switzerland, Milano On the occasion of the Milan Design Week (17-23 April 2023), ECAL presents Junkyard Diving at the House of Switzerland. Under the guidance of the designer Philippe Malouin, ECAL s Bachelor students in Industrial Design invite us to question our consumption habits, the role of designers and the world of tomorrow. The shortage of energy and resources that many countries are currently experiencing or anticipating, raises several questions about supply alternatives and ways of limiting consumption. According to studies, the cumulative number of metals to be produced in the coming years would exceed the cumulative amount produced since antiquity to the present day. In the wake of forthcoming legislation on the right to repair products, energy and resource consumption, design, as an innovation discipline, must play a key role. Junkyard Diving questions our consumption habits, as well as the role of designers in the world of tomorrow. "Form follows function" is a maxim attributed to the modernist architect Louis Sullivan. In industrial design, if this statement is sometimes at the heart of reflections, it can also be reversed, in which case the form determines the function through a creative process based on existing elements. During a week-long workshop with designer Philippe Malouin, Bachelor Industrial Design students adopted this latter approach: seeking new functions inspired by forms found in a metal recycling center. Through this process, unexpected associations and discoveries are made, generating a new vocabulary of forms. « With resources dwindling, it is essential to challenge the way we generate new ideas: combining or altering existing forms and elements can lead to new discoveries in product design. Other people s trash can definitely be our creative treasure », says Philippe Malouin. Junkyard Diving highlights the existing - yet under-exploited - opportunities for recycling that design provides. Presented at the House of Switzerland, Junkyard Diving is part of the group exhibition Urgent Legacy, which proposes innovative and sustainable Swiss design responses to the urgent challenges of the present, in collaboration with the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia and Presence Switzerland.

Remix – 2023 Workshop with Helmo During this week, the students created a new version of vinyl cover by remixing their graphic elements.
The Things I Missed While Scrolling – 2023 Workshop with Stephanie Specht During the week the students had to produce one poster that makes people aware of their phone use, make them stand still. They had design their poster so that it inspires from a distance, and informs up close.
self-Initiated Project - Spring 2023 - MAP1 This module assists the students to develop into a finalized work a project that further expands their interests and research. The module gives the opportunity to take some of the ideas, skills and themes explores in the first semester and make into a brand new work that can take any possible form: a book, an installation, an online project, a performance.
Materialized Photography - Spring – 2023 This course, taught by Rachel de Joode explores sculptural photography. Through a combination of material experimentation, research, and collaboration, students explore the visual and physical dimensions of photography, sculpture, and installation. The course focuses on ways of seeing and thinking differently about materials, surroundings, and oneself. The curriculum includes a mix of reading and discussion as well as focused individual critique, all taught through the lens of the instructor s practice.
Applied Photography - Spring – 2023 The Applied Photography course will look into the concept of photorealism in all its means. Cactus Magazine has always worked on new visual languages through all sorts of techniques; classic photography, graphic design, video, CGI, VR, Sound design. The only feature that has always guided this research was to seek for a photorealistic result that could ensure a sophisticated and luxurious feeling to the final outcome. In the past 4 years Cactus Magazine has been exploring the CGI technique and always tried to emulate the classic photographic style applied in the 3D realm. This had been done by the means of lights, textures, modeling and also camera techniques. After doing a lot of CGI work we got interested in merging the IRL world in a seamless way with the CGI world. Using XR techniques or VFX. But always looking to have a perfect photorealistic result. With the emergence of Ai powered software for image generating, creating HD images of almost everything seems to be everyone s finger tip. Nowadays people consume more CGI imagery than IRL imagery, just think of Instagram filters.
Photographic Essays – 2023 In the second year, the course Photographic Essays course enables students to exercise a documentary photographic practice –one based on a relationship with reality, with something anchored in the here and now. This year, students worked on a theme related to ecology in the broadest sense: a very specific, concrete starting point (a permaculture garden, Extinction Rebellion activists, documentation of polluted sites, encounters with people working with more-than-human animals), a broader, multiple or personal approach.
Screen Design – 2023 Websites developed during a semester according to a recipe chosen by the students in the course of Screen Design of Harry Bloch, second year Bachelor Visual Communication. Word s best macarons LES MEILLEURS MACARONS AU MONDE (Word s best macarons) is an experimental website that showcases the history and recipe of macarons.

Dialogue – 2023 #2 As part of the publishing course taught by Gilles Gavillet and Jonathan Hares, the 3rd year students worked on the layout of dialogue. They began by selecting a dialogue that had potential for visual creation. After identifying the graphic challenges of their subject, they defined an editorial solution. Justiciable.net Edition This project highlights a case of corruption and harassment suffered by Franck Blanchard, a police major, within his police station in Aubenas, Ardèche. The newspaper recounts the victim s story, as well as the stages of the investigation and presents various damning evidence against several of his superiors. By Romain Oederlin A way to be reunited A way to be reunited is an editorial project putting in dialogue the universe and the musical, scientific and geographical references of two djs (Marcel Dettmann and Dj Stingray). By Benoît Rochat7-10 Figo Newspaper 7-10 Figo traces the biggest football transfer of the 2000s. This event takes the form of a newspaper with a double print. With a contemporary look, this project graphically materializes the snake s knot that governed this transfer, composed of political and financial stakes... as well as the violence of the fans of the clubs involved. By Antonin MaudryThe Pathmark Shooting of Old Bridge Edition This book recounts the events of the August 31, 2012 shooting at the Pathmark supermarket in Old Bridge, New Jersey. Through the numerous calls made to 911, the edition questions the trivialization of gun violence in the United States by confronting the reader with the panic of the witnesses, staged as a play. by Tessa Roy
Photographic Editions – 2023 Using pre-produced images, the students created one or more book models. How do you transform a series of photographs into a book? The Photographic Editions course introduces students to the selection of images, their order, format, graphics, ink, paper and binding. It addresses the specificities of the book as a medium and as a market.

Visual Identity – 2023 During the visual identity course, the 1st year Graphic Design bachelors had to realize a communication project around a district of Lausanne. MON-REPOS Affiche & carnet de recherche The aim of this project was to create a poster for a fictitious festival taking place in the park of Mon-Repos in Lausanne. This fictitious concert poster seeks to oppose nature and synthetics, in resonance with the historical past of the place; an artificially shaped green space. Par Le flon Carnet de recherche & affiche Although the roofs are at the same level as the ground of the Flon district. This place is inscribed as a floor in the city. It is organized according to a grid of similar rectangular buildings and thus represented by assemblies of blocks inducing the notion of floors by playing on the modification of the perspective. Par Eliot DubiOUCHY Drapeau & carnet de recherches This project of creation of a visual identity is produced for the district of Ouchy in Lausanne. The identity system of this one was reflected from the nautical language and the particularities of this district at the edge of the lake of Geneva. Par MONTCHOISI Carnet de recherches & panneaux The visual identity of the Montchoisi district is based on a struggle between two parties. A population using a set of pictograms in the form of authoritarian signs, against a minority displaying protest posters in order to overthrow order and discipline. Par
Dialogue – 2023 As part of the publishing course taught by Gilles Gavillet and Jonathan Hares, the 3rd year students worked on the layout of dialogue. They began by selecting a dialogue that had potential for visual creation. After identifying the graphic challenges of their subject, they defined an editorial solution. 1968 Now Live, When Politic Became TV Show Edition In the summer of 1968, the American network ABC invited two great intellectual and political figures, William Buckley and Gore Vidal, to debate the presidential election of that year. Without knowing it, it would become the channel with the lowest ratings, the one that changed the future of television debates. 1968 Now Live transcribes the 11 episodes that made up this virulent debate in the manner of a play script. Punctuated by notebooks in which the flow of images from popular culture mingles with political images, the object gives form to this moment when politics became a television show. By Alexis Gargaloni A Conversation about glacial decoy Edition Through a conversation between Trisha Brown and Yvonne Rainer, this edition presents a visual interpretation of the dance piece Glacial Decoy, created in 1979 by choreographer Trisha Brown. The images are taken from the performance at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in May 2009 and the excerpt lasts 1 minute and 47 seconds. In the background of the piece, large black and white images are projected, signed Rauschengerg. Four of them are always visible, moving every 30 seconds to the right. These images of heterogeneous objects and landscapes seem to belong to the same fading world. By Correspondance Edition Correspondence is a re-edition of part of the book Correspondence (1944-1959): Albert Camus / Maria Casarès. The edition gathers several letters that Albert Camus and Maria Casarès exchanged during the years 1944 to 1948. Behind each of the letters are parts of the diaries corresponding to the day they were written. The Japanese binding allows a double reading of these letters; that of the love of the two lovers and that of the historical context at that time. By Soup and Sun flowers: the urgent but delicate art of awakening consciences Edition Soup and Sunflowers emerges from the recent actions of climate activists Just stop Oil within museum institutions. It takes the form of a hybrid catalogue, which presents these different actions of civil disobedience, such as happenings, performances, or other pictorial acts of canvas destruction, already curated and presented in the museum. What is art? How can the museum elevate the debate around the climate emergency? By Agathe BourréeThe Chicago Boys Newspaper A newspaper about a group of Chilean economists trained at the University of Chicago in the 1950s and 1960s who were called the Chicago Boys. They applied Milton Friedman s free market theories to Chile after the military coup of 1973. Their neo-liberal economic policies had a significant impact on the Chilean economy and society, but have also been criticised for their social and economic consequences. Their legacy is controversial and continues to be studied today. By Hugo JauffretPrairie s Tale Edition Navigating between different programmes, the digital painting illustrates the tale Prairie s Tale written by the artist Thilda Bourqui. In it we follow the adventure of the princess Prairie who, in disagreement with the patriarchal values of the castle, will find a new way of life in the forest and in the more-than-human world.

PRATIQUE PHOTOGRAPHIQUE – 2023 #2 By conceptualizing and producing the visual content for a magazine, themed - RESISTANCE - the students approached the notion of applied photography in a practical, creative and professional way in close collaboration with an Art Director.
Propedeutic Workshop – 2023
Révélation Photographique – 2023 During the first semester of the third year, this course enables students to take up a project they have already started, which could be continued in the second semester for the diploma. Students are encouraged to take risks in form, technique, production or subject matter.
Création photographique – 2023 Over the course of a semester, the students develop a project that examines the challenges of auteur photography and develops their personal expression. The project may be continued as a diploma project in the second semester.
Image Creation – 2023 In the course of the Image Creation course taught by Guy Meldem, third year students choose the subject they wish to work on. They develop their own technique and approach to image-making in preparation for their diploma project and their future professional practice. Superstition Edition Does religion offer a code of conduct to quickly transform our lives into an experience of freedom, true happiness and love? What should we believe in? Superstition is a catalogue based on the God & Sons exhibition at the Roman Museum in Lausanne, offering a tale that traces the path of a hopeful spiritual humanism. By Laeticia JakobCutieCore Edition This Fanzine was conceived as an inclusive meeting place. The poems, texts and thoughts of several artists have been assembled in order to develop an emancipating plural expression. The underlying objective is to escape together from the daily social pressure. By Vera Gonzalez PonceLe Parlement des choses Edition According to the theory of the anthropologist Bruno Latour, our modern society is separated between the political and the scientific spheres. Science would represent the unpredictable state of things, while politics is composed of a mixture of ideologies and beliefs. This confusion between these two instances would make hybridisation unrepresentable. Through the representation of objects from our collective memory, this project proposes a system of images illustrating the association of this nature/culture paradox. The superposition of these two objects, on the one hand cultural and on the other scientific, gives rise to the emergence of new discourses in order to allow the representation of hybrid objects. This project is printed in vegetable ink and chemical ink. By Ianka Jean-MarieIci Loin Edition Ici Loin is the exploration of an imaginary world through the eyes of a curious and wandering protagonist. The research that accompanies this graphic novel offers an experimental dimension to the project and seeks to give particular importance to the creative process. By Louis RohThe Pathmark Shooting of Old Bridge Installation Based on the most common clichés in the media space, this interactive installation reflects the double reality that social networks sell us. The fake and artificial side of the "good life" is confronted with the real and depressing aspects of human nature, all depending on the movements of the viewer and his or her shot. Sometimes the images are intertwined to emphasise the interdependence and coexistence of these two worlds. By Ekaterina Bliznyuk
PRATIQUE PHOTOGRAPHIQUE – 2023 "Sculpture" is an intentionally broad theme to give this semester project in order to stimulate experimentation and freedom of realization. Sculpture is an artistic medium that allows for the realization of volume forms forms in volume thanks to innumerable techniques that have been used since the Paleolithic era to our contemporary society. This is an ambitious project where each student will have to complete a series of images highlighting their creations through advanced techniques of composition and light in the studio. Creating a sculpture is for some artists, for others it is a spontaneous way to elaborate a body of spontaneous way to develop a body of work.
Service Design - 2023 During the service design course, the 3rd year of the Graphic Design, Photography and Media & Interaction Design bachelor s degree programs realized multi-media projects. A collaboration of the Visual Communication department with the theme of SDGs (*Sustainable Development Goals). The theme named "For a good cause, make the SDGS a reality" aims to develop a cause close to the heart of the different student groups. Each project is composed of at least two different supports, one primary and one secondary. The projects could therefore take any form the students deemed relevant, be it a website, editions and posters, a video sequence, or even virtual reality. The SDGs are to be achieved worldwide and by all UN member states by 2030. This means that all states must play an equal role in finding common solutions to the world s pressing challenges. Switzerland is also required to implement the objectives at national level. In addition, incentives must be created to encourage non-governmental players to make an increasingly active contribution to sustainable development.The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with their 169 targets, form the core of the Agenda 2030. They reconcile the economic, social and ecological dimensions of sustainable development and, for the first time, place the fight against poverty and sustainable development on the same agenda.Sex on the Lake Edition & video Sex On The Lake is a playful, popular science book. In the form of an illustrated story, the book presents all the players involved in the feminization of fish and explains their respective responsibilities. This serious phenomenon is not yet widely publicized. Our case study, the disappearance of river trout from Lake Leman, deals with the subject in a precise way, to reach a wider audience. Today s wastewater treatment plants do not filter chemical waste. This waste, these micropollutants, ends up in the water, threatening the biodiversity of aquatic environments. A short video to poetically raise awareness of the feminization of fish. In contrast to the book, the impact of the various players is dealt with in flashback. The video takes the point of view of the fish, so that the viewer is touched by the problem. The colors, formal aspects and titling are consistent with the book. By , & Pour mieux vivre ensemble Edition & video/teaser Pour mieux vivre ensemble is a project aimed at promoting sustainable neighborhoods. The aim of this edition is to summarize and popularize the concept of eco-neighborhoods, based on concrete examples of structures already established in Switzerland. Its main objective is to promote the emergence, realization and understanding of these living spaces which, in response to the current global crisis, seem to represent a most interesting solution. By Laeticia Jakob , Julien Caulet , Ilaria Citti ile verte Edition & website New housing is being built all the time to meet growing demand. However, the Ile verte project questions the place of plants in urban environments. Its aim is to raise public awareness of the many benefits it brings to the environment around our homes. With sustainability and ecology in mind, we looked at ways of revitalizing existing areas. In a carefully crafted edition, combining individual testimonials, informative texts and photographic images, we present the project from an entertaining angle. In this way, we give readers the opportunity to construct their own images, thanks to a subtle play on transparency. As for our website, which serves as a second medium, it reveals the major themes addressed in our edition. By Tony Altermatt , Jeanne Weber , Romain OederlinOutburst Fanzine & Website Despite recent waves of feminism, ordinary sexism is still trivialized and invisible in privileged circles. It was against this backdrop that OUTBURST n°1 was born, the first in a series of leaflets designed to provide information on discrimination against women in the workplace. In the form of a malleable, playful brochure, this project allows for rapid distribution, while being easily reproducible, in order to make information accessible to the new generation. The brochure is designed to offer several levels of reading, including testimonials, articles and real-life situations, to better grasp the issues at stake in this crucial subject. As a second support, an interactive web experience offers an overview of the brochure s content, enabling direct promotion of the project via an online medium. By , & VIF Website & Instagram It s not uncommon for students to put aside sports or other physical activities in favor of their studies. Unfortunately, this trend has a negative impact on their physical and mental well-being, leading to a loss of motivation. This is where the VIF platform comes into its own. Its aim is to inform the residents of Lausanne about the different places offering a variety of physical activities adapted to each individual. Whether you prefer to practice a sport alone, in a duo, find a team or even join a club for the more determined, VIF guides you towards the best options. What s more, in order to fully convince you, VIF makes it its duty to find the most affordable offers for even the tightest budgets. If you hold a HES student card or are a 3rd year gymnasium student in Switzerland, or if you belong to the HES-UNIL-EPFL community, the CHUV, the SIFO, the CIO, or the BCV, this platform is specially designed for you. By , , Petit manifeste de l information Book, Video & poster Recent events remind us of the importance of having access to reliable, verified, quality infomartion. Censorship, conspiracy theories and the issues raised by new platforms are all challenges for today s journalists. Through this project, we aim to raise awareness of journalistic professions and their importance in our societies. By synthesizing UNESCO s "Manual for Journalism Education and Training", we are making it accessible in a small pocket book for the general public. The project is visually guided by a bubble, a metaphor for the magnifying glass and investigation. The bubble makes the guide fun, gives it a sense of identity and creates a link between digital and printed media. By , & The Legal Clock Journal & teaser The project aims to address the harmful consequences of a lack of free and informed access to sexual, reproductive and family health. We focus here on the obstacles encountered during the abortion process. In some cases, these lead to the use of unsafe methods of termination, which can have serious consequences for both physical and mental health, including death. In "The Legal Clock", we take stock of the different situations in Europe from a geographical point of view, and present the different abortion methods available. With the aim of informing and demystifying the way procedures are carried out, we also present testimonials from people who have had a safe, clandestine abortion, and from those who have not been able to access an abortion. By , & NEO Website & posters The project, in the form of a website, retraces the path of pesticides, whose presence spreads throughout the pollination process. From its first use on plants, to its consumption in the form of honey, the journey takes visual form in a series of photos, somewhere between docu-fiction and archive. It is accompanied by a narrative text, facts and the consequences for the environment and living beings at each stage. By , & ≥92 Edition & video The edition uses contextual elements such as statistics, articles and other documents to provide a context for nuclear energy consumption and its implications and risks. Following this, a final section presents elements of semiotics related to the management of nuclear waste. In this way, the reader acquires the necessary tools to understand the consequences of nuclear consumption. The video serves as a teaser for the edition, taking certain elements and codes present in the book and representing them in a dystopian future, in order to materialize this temporal distance that may seem abstract. By , & CORAL VIRUS Edition & instagram BLUE is a quarterly magazine that aims to raise readers awareness of the threats facing aquatic ecosystems, oceans, rivers and their inhabitants. It is aimed at people who are sensitive to environmental issues, eager to discover and learn about contemporary problems and solutions linked to water preservation. The very first issue of this publication, entitled "Coral Virus", looks at the phenomenon of coral bleaching and the slow disappearance of corals worldwide. The magazine s mission is to inform readers about the causes and consequences of this phenomenon, while presenting current solutions. In addition to raising awareness of our individual responsibilities, this issue aims to challenge and re-evaluate our perception of corals and their preservation. It also features interviews with enthusiasts of the subject, as well as with a renowned researcher from the University of Lausanne. BLUE magazine has an Instagram account, under the name blue.magazine.ch, which aims to be an interactive, dynamic and proactive space in its publications. We regularly share news about the aquatic world and relay the work of organizations committed to protecting water resources. By Arthur Lucchesi , Eloïse Genoud , Yan Miranda

Analog Medium Format Workshop – 2023 For this week s "sitter" theme, first-year photography students were asked to imagine a medium-format analog portrait. The term "sitter" was historically used in photography to designate the person posing for a portrait. This use dates back to the early days of photography, when long exposure times were necessary and subjects had to remain motionless for extended periods. The term reflected the idea that the person had to sit or hold a pose for the duration of the exposure. Now, as photography technology has evolved and exposure times have become shorter, the term "model" or "subject" has become more commonly used, reflecting a wider range of poses and activities beyond simply sitting.
Feed Filler - artgenève 2023,26–29.01.2023,Palexpo, Geneva From January 26 to 29, as part of artgenève 2023, Bachelor Fine Arts graduates will present Feed Filler, an installation by the artist Miriam Laura Leonardi. As for music, Bachelor Fine Arts students will be part of the artgenève/musique program. FEED FILLER An in-situ installation where the art market economy becomes the backdrop for works freshly created by Bachelor Fine Arts graduates. A project proposed by Miriam Laura Leonardi. The enlarged manual of a modern art gallery serves as a backdrop for videos, works on paper and sculptural contributions by seven emerging and established artists. While their works are united by the way they step away from reality to conceptualize the illusory worlds that are foreign to us, the gallery-goers "du jour" wear tracksuits that convey a comforting message to the overwhelming crowd of visitors in search of meaning. Graduates: Charly Mirambeau, Gina Proenza, Christian Schulz, Virginie Sistek, Romane de Watteville, Maria Esteves, Kelly Tissot. ARTGENÈVE/MUSIQUE: THE TUNING CEREMONY In the heart of the Music Chamber, a curated space that gathers artworks and sound performances, Bachelor Fine Arts students in collaboration with the Ensemble Contrechamps present an exhibition driven by sound, the pieces positioned around a "tuning ceremony". This game of call and response between the works and the direct, recorded, electronic or analogical sound, extends the exhibition towards a polyphonic quest that unfolds at different moments of the day. Students: Anna Cocimarov, Caroline Bischoff, Camille Dudan, Axel Mattart, Emma Blanc-Germser, Julie Wuhrmann, Romain Rochat, Achille Meier, Tom Grbic, Marsaili Venus Haas.

THE SECRET LIFE OF OBJECTS – 2023 During the 2nd year Bachelor of Graphic Design visual identity course, students had to choose an object allowing them to perform an action and then bypass its basic function. Following this, the students created a fictitious company or a creator behind this object allowing them to develop a visual identity concept as well as define the recurring elements of the identity in order to establish a modular graphic system that can be applied to a multitude of different media, fixed and animated. FUTURE IS BELOW Edition & Poster The exhibition Future Is Below was born from the collaboration of four artists around a single object: the jigsaw blade. Each artist was free to choose how he or she would use it, leaving an almost unlimited space of possibility. The origin of the exhibition embodies a way of thinking about the underlying themes of ecology and the consequences of the mass of waste produced today by human beings through an object of manufacture. Is a future possible thanks to recovery? By Master Laser Edition, Animation & Poster Fictitious visual identity for the company Master. It is a company specialized in the sale of high-end precision lasers. It offers a wide range of products adapted to all levels of use, whether for amateurs or professionals. The identity is symbolized by a variable font, which perfectly represents the extent of Master s skills. The two axes of the typography are also significant: they represent the precision and the robustness of the proposed lasers. By 10 – 4 Edition, Animation & Poster Why work from 9 to 5 when you can work from 10 to 4? That s the mantra of ten to four, a brand of accessories made from office objects that advocates non-productivity at work. The edition is presented as a guide to mastering the art of procrastination and can be read during lunch break or on the subway, before work, as a preamble to the day ahead. By Mineral grinding engineering Edition, Animation & Poster Mineral Grinding Engineering is a fictional company. It manufactures machines to grind the hardest minerals on the planet in order to make objects useful to people s daily lives. With this project, I tell the story of the realization and use of the PM-23 machine by the company s scientists through the creation of a visual identity. The work is oriented towards a scientific visual, with images of the study, archives, data, diagrams and elements that tell the story of the research. By Clay Edition, Animation & Poster Clay is a project based on the concept of DIY and conservation through skin care masks. Clay is a creator of homemade cosmetics that promotes sustainability, authenticity, less is more and independence. By KAOS-3 Poster & Animation The KAOS-3 space is located underground: it is a club for those who want a loud, mathematically confusing, fluid, dirty experience. The identity project wants to look at the main tools for creating the performances offered in the club: the Korg Kaossilators (KO-1), that is, dynamic phrase synthesizers, which produce a different sound or note every time you touch the pad with a finger. The visual identity of the KAOS-3 club explores music, sound, visuals and modularity through a code that recreates random images through the use of synthesizer touch screens combined with sound. By
So how can we live better – 2023 Beyond questions of functionality, comfort and individual or collective well-being, the built environment is able to respond in a stimulating way to societal, energy and environmental challenges. The work space, the living space, the public space, the interior space, the street, are carried by real statements of intent that motivate their forms, following certain principles such as climate transition, densification, ecology and energy transition.... The 2nd year Graphic Design students worked on the production of a communication based on one of these principles (or others) and on the architectural realization which refers to it in order to promote it. A ZANG MEYONG Edition Through this object, my mother was able to transmit to me the complexity of memories as an immigrant in a country that is not her own. With the help of archival photos, archival texts, and her actual words translating letters received from my grandfather, I immersed myself in the transmission of memories between my grandfather, my mother, and me, using her memories as a pivot of transmission between the past and the future. By Midi Minuit Edition & Animation The goal of the project is to tell a story through my filmed experiences and my thoughts written on paper, recomposed to tell a personal story of a woman who dares to appropriate the urban space, despite the innate fear she feels within herself. The visual part and the writing complement each other, the filmed part being an immersion in her skin, where the viewer travels the city through her point of view. The editing acts as subtitles to the video. It reflects her thoughts, feelings and interactions, the poetry of moments of solitude, of contemplation through the act of strolling. By DSE Edition DSE is a book about prisons, one of the most controversial environments in our justice system. They are supposed to be places where criminals are punished and rehabilitated, but they are often criticized for their overcrowding, lack of resources, and inhumane conditions of confinement. By VELVET FLOWERS Edition Velvet flowers questions the different feelings that abandoned places can evoke. When reading the work, a nostalgia settles in, then it s the turn of anxiety and uneasiness. We can feel different traces and imprints left by entities, human or not. The experience is transcribed through silver photographs, pages of dense texts and fragments of the place. The feeling of déjà vu submits us to a question of temporality that cannot be defied and questions the fact that we are never in the right traces. By SITTERWERK CATALOGUE Edition Umberto Eco said: "The most important function of a library is to help the reader discover books that he or she did not know existed and that turn out to be of great importance to him or her. In the Sitterwerk library in St. Gallen, books are put down as they please and temporary collections are created. Sometimes unrelated books are placed together on the same shelf. By eliminating all classifications, we leave room for the unexpected. Searching for a particular book is no longer the main objective, it is the experience of the place that takes precedence. This object follows a reflection around the book, taking as subjects of experiment a selection of 100 publications with as criterion of selection their format which must be between an A4 and an A3. The books were taken from the catalog of the Sitterwerk library. By
Photographie et arts plastiques – 2023 Based on projects developed around the theme "Trompe L oeil and Simulacra", the students developed a personal and in-depth work over an entire semester.
