HOW SOON IS NOW? HISTORIES AND FIGURES OF YOUTH Symposium : HOW SOON IS NOW? HISTORIES AND FIGURES OF YOUTH This symposium is the first stage of the research project How Soon Is Now? Histories and Figures of Youth. It questions “youth” as a conceptual, aesthetic, andpolitical figure born with modernity in the visual arts, popular culture, and the humanities. At the same time, this project proposes to examine the implications ofthe problematic category of "youth" in contemporary art and thought. By exploring the processes in which youth is constituted through its forms of representation, thisproject intends to render intelligible the aesthetic and political dimensions of youth, and to grasp it as a historical allegory allowing for a reconsideration of thecontemporary in the light of its most lively site. What image(s) does the notion of youth carry with it? What idea does it have of itself? How can we talk about it beyond ingrained ideas and the fantasies that society projects on it (at least in Western culture), making it simultaneously a force, a market, an age, a culture, a piece of a history which which we only began writing inthe twentieth-century, and which today has reached its critical stage? In recent history, the notion of youth has so often been conflated with “bringing down the house” that we now expect everything from it: to reinvent us, to shake us up, to carry us, to succeed in what others have failed at (establishing the most open communities possible), to build bridges for the future, to be radical, to be uncompromising where anyone outside of youth has already given up, to be desirable where others are overwhelmed. But with what means? If not those that young people make themselves, for themselves, with elements that they alone will have chosen? With their culture, their places, their clandestinity. Because that which is not yet over happens in the shadows of the world. Youth is a secret. “How Soon Is Now?”, The Smiths once asked.

A Historical Perspective The representations, discourses and other obsessions about "youth" often say less about young people than about the authorities that forge them: politicians, institutions, media, artists... In themselves, these representations are interesting: they express anxieties, doubts and hopes, but also strong opinions, sometimes peremptory visions that often translate fantasies. In such a landscape, cinema in particular is an excellent medium when it projects its lights and cameras on youth. It is these ways of telling the story of youth that this presentation addresses. But it does not stop there. For beyond the representations, what remains the most fascinating are the modalities of socialization that young people know and come across, in all their diversity. In this sense, this presentation will also question the relationship to time, historicity as an awareness of taking part in history and situating oneself in it, age identities, and generational belonging. Agnès Gayraud "Will You Love Me When I m Sixty Four?" Pop Music as an Art of Ages Folklore has long been interpreted as the "childhood of art", a form of expression invented by popular classes and considered as the living vestige of humanity s childhood. From its outset, recorded folk music has been appreciated as a form of "primaverism", the conviction that things in their prime are the most valuable, that authenticity stems not only from the origin but from the beginning. A recording fixes individual voices and their organic idiosyncrasies at the moment of their expression, and in so doing, it captures the aura of a primitive past. The fixed expressivity of recorded voices represents countless individual incarnations, and this has made pop music the most powerful musical art form to bear witness to all ages of life, not just childhood or youth. Rather than associating pop music with a particular stage of life, with a phase of inexperience (innocence, naivety, regression or youth), it is tempting to question its rooting in the expression of ages in general. Contemporary musicians such as Angèle, Oklou, and Arca accurately represent post-adolescence, sexual maturity, and the pleasure of finally flirting with the pornographic category of "adult" content, all while reflecting on youthism, contemporary ageism, and sexist domination. Here, individual embodiment takes as its theme its own situated expression. In contrast to these younger artists, Bob Dylan sang later in his life,"It s not dark yet but it s getting there". This priority given to the expression of individuality at various ages (one s body, one s sexuality, one s race, which make sense only by situating a generation in terms of someone s legal and physiological age), is what binds deeply popular recorded music to what the history of western musical art has at some point thought to have overcome during the 20th century: the romantic confidence in situated individualities, in particular incarnations, in singularities. In the contemporary artistic field, reflexive forms of art only recognize their historical age. Individual age is not a key to understanding the content of their gesture, one deciphers it rather in light of their epoch. Popular music, to the contrary, presents itself as a musical art powerfully carried by the expressiveness of the ages, even if it means sometimes to render eternal a youth whose legal status as such proceeds from the whole liberal system. Persis Bekkering The Rave Continuum. Researching Plot and Politics of "Europe s Last Youth Culture" As much as any experience fails to be adequately grasped by language, the experience of the rave presents the storyteller with a specific, intriguing challenge. As the narrator in Rainald Goetz experimental novel Rave (1998) remembers: "It was the wordless time, when we were always looking around with our big eyes so strangely in every possible situation, shaking our heads, and could almost never say anything but: speechless – pf –" The rave, at its best, is a wordless suspension of time; a limit experience; an event blurring linear understandings of time and space, proposing its own logic. As music theorist Simon Reynolds once quoted the (unbelievably perfect) shouts of an MC at a hardcore party: We ve lost the plot . What does this mean if one tries to translate the rave into narrative? How to grasp its thwarted, warped, halted temporality? For her last novel Exces, part of which is published in English as the novella Last Utopia, writer Persis Bekkering has attempted to find an answer to these problems. The questions of narrative structure and temporality of the rave may look like purely formal ones, but they are closely tied to bigger, historical or even philosophical questions: how to understand the rave and the emergence of rave culture, at the end of the 1980s, in its time? Why did it emerge at that peculiar historical moment, when the end of history and telos of progress was famously declared, utopian ideologies lost their claim, and capitalism entered a new phase? And what did the rave propose to it: resistance or acceleration? Maybe both? In her presentation, Bekkering takes us through a meandering journey along her ongoing artistic and literary research, sharing images, texts, fragments and shouts in the dark, from her archive. Throughout the various parts and fragments, one can hear the constant drone of the search for the aesthetic expression of the permanent presence of crisis in our time. Caroline Poggi and Jonathan Vinel About Bébé Colère Screening of the film followed by a round table discussion. For more than ten years now, Caroline Poggi and Jonathan Vinel have been weaving together a body of work that has no equivalent within French cinema. Whether through their first feature film Jessica forever (2018), or through their numerous short and medium-length films, (Martin pleure, 2017; Notre héritage, 2015; or Tant qu il nous restera des fusils à pompe, 2014, which won the Golden Bear at the 2014 Berlin International Film Festival), they follow the destiny of their own generation (they are both less than 35 years old). This is a generation which feeds on heroism through the virtual, a generation that met porn before love and online violence before friendship, a generation for which the video game is its lost paradise. Yet they draw from it, and this is their strength, a form of romanticism, which never wants to believe in the end of emotions. Their lyricism is unprecedented because it comes after: after the images, after the clichés, after the disillusionment, after they have been told that “no, really, sorry, there is nothing left to expect from anything, everything has been played out”. In the spring of 2020, when the earth had just come to a halt due to the Covid pandemic, Jonathan and Caroline retreated to Corsica where they dreamed of an unseen body that escaped from a video game: Bébé Colère [Baby Anger]. Bébé Colère denies his parents, Bébé Colère has no friends, Bébé Colère vomits the world and feeds on emptiness. In 13 minutes, Bébé Colère is an irreducible work that paints a portrait of a 2.0 youth caught in disarray. A post-human body, which has denied its origins and only sees the future through the features of an avatar. Caroline Poggi and Jonathan Vinel will discuss the possibility of romanticism today, and the conditions that allow them to invent new characters, generating their own disordered chronology. They will also talk about their aesthetic relationship with video games: the baby in Bébé Colère is a pre-programmed asset purchased online to be animated and then integrated into the film. In close collaboration with Lucien Krampf, they are also currently developing a project conceived inside a game engine. In their work, they consider the game as a new narrative track while also using pre-existing elements. The conversation will take place in French. — Ludivine Bantigny is a historian, teacher and researcher attached to the Laboratory of History of the University of Rouen-Normandy. She works on the history of commitments, social movements, insurrections and revolutions, but has also devoted numerous books and articles to the history of youth and generations. She has published Le Plus Bel Âge ?

Une histoire sociale et politique des Champs-Élysées (La Découverte, 2020) and La Commune au présent. Une correspondance par-delà le temps (La Découverte, 2021). Persis Bekkering is a metamorphic writer, engaging with a wide spectrum of artistic disciplines. She is interested in the emotional landscape of the contemporary, searching for new narrative forms that reflect a present permanently marked by crisis. Her recent publications include (fictocritical) essays, art criticism and fiction. Her debut novel Een heldenleven (The Life of a Hero), published in 2018, was shortlisted for the ANV Debut Prize. Her second novel Exces, shortlisted for the BNG Bank Prize for Literature, was published in 2021, part of which has been translated in English as Last Utopia by the Jan Van Eyck Academy in Maastricht. Recent and forthcoming publications include texts for M HKA Antwerp, Girls Like Us, Extra Extra and NRC Handelsblad. With choreographer Ula Sickle she worked as dramaturg on the concert performances The Sadness (2020) and Echoic Choir (2021). She also teaches at the Creative Writing department of ArtEZ University of the Arts in Arnhem. Agnès Gayraud was born in Tarbes in 1979. Under the name La Féline, she is the author and composer of several pop records released since 2014 by Kwaidan Records, including the albums Adieu l enfance, Triomphe, and Vie Future, as well as other contributions under the moniker GRIVE. She published a book of aesthetic philosophy, Dialectic of Pop (Urbanomic, 2019), dealing with the expressive changes induced by the advent of recorded popular music since the beginning of the twentieth century. She is currently professor of art and theory at the Ecole Nationale des Beaux-Arts de Lyon. Jonathan Vinel, born in Toulouse in 1988, studied editing at the Fémis. Caroline Poggi, born in 1990 in Ajaccio, studied at the University of Paris-Sorbonne (Paris-IV) and at the University of Corsica (CREATACC degree). They have directed several films, separately (Chiens for Caroline, Notre amour est assez puissant for Jonathan) and together. Their short film Tant qu il nous reste des fusils à pompe received the Golden Bear at the 2014 Berlin International Film Festival. They then directed Notre héritage, also selected at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2015, followed by their first feature film Jessica Forever in 2018. They are currently working on their second feature film entitled Eat the Night. — Concept and organization: Philippe Azoury, Vincent Normand, Shirin Yousefi For registration or further information please contact: shirin.yousefi@ecal.ch — How Soon Is Now?

ECAL Conference: Joan Fontcuberta,23.03.2022,IKEA Auditorium, ECAL ECAL Conference: Joan Fontcuberta – Visual artist & photographer, Barcelona. Joan Fontcuberta Visual artist & photographer, Barcelona Wednesday 23 March 2022 at 6pm IKEA auditorium, ECAL As part of a workshop with the students of the Bachelor Photography programme of ECAL. In addition to his work as a visual artist oriented towards the field of photography, Joan Fontcuberta (born in Barcelona in 1955) develops a plural activity as a teacher, critic, curator and historian. Through the manipulation of the photographic image, he questions the effects of reality and the capacity of truth produced by the technological image. In a logic of denunciation of authoritarian discourses in the context of information, he dismantles, through different series - Herbarium, Fauna, Sputnik, Les Sirènes de Digne, Miracles et cie... - the language specific to the disciplines of science, information and other vectors of knowledge. In his latest projects, he is interested in the nature and function of the image in digital culture. Visiting professor at institutions such as Harvard or Le Fresnoy, he has written numerous essays, including Le boîtier de Pandore, Spanish National Prize for Literature - essay category in 2011. He has also had solo exhibitions at MoMA (New York), MIT (Cambridge - USA), the Maison Européenne de la Photographie (Paris) and the Science Museum (London). Many of his works are in public collections such as the Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris), the Met (New York), the National Gallery of Art (Ottawa) or the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía (Madrid).

Special screening of "Donbass" by Sergei Loznitsa,11.03.2022 The Swiss Cinematheque and the ECAL Film Department invite you to an evening of support for the Ukrainian people on Friday 11th March at 7pm at ECAL. In the presence of Mykyta Kryvosheiev, director, editor, graduate and assistant at ECAL, who will speak after the screening of Sergei Loznitsa s film "Donbass". "Donbass" by Sergei Loznitsa - 121min - 2018 In the Donbass, a region of Eastern Ukraine, a hybrid war takes place, involving an open armed conflict alongside killings and robberies on a mass scale perpetrated by separatist gangs. In the Donbass, war is called peace, propaganda is uttered as truth and hatred is declared to be love. A journey through the Donbass unfolds as a chain of curious adventures, where the grotesque and drama are as intertwined as life and death. This is not a tale of one region, one country or one political system. It is about a world, lost in post-truth and fake identities. It is about each and every one of us. Admission is free, but a contribution to La Chaîne du Bonheur is strongly encouraged, via the attached link as well as via a QR code shown at the beginning and end of the session.

ECAL x Jean Paul Gaultier: Smells Like Queer Spirit,05.02–24.04.2022,Musée des beaux-arts, Le Locle From 5 February (opening on 4 February at 6 pm) to 24 April 2022 at the Musée des beaux-arts in Le Locle, ECAL presents the exhibition "Smells Like Queer Spirit" created in collaboration with Jean Paul Gaultier by third-year Bachelor Photography students, under the direction of Florence Tétier and Nicolas Coulomb (Novembre). Namsa Leuba and Erwan Frotin, two graduates of the Bachelor Photography programme at ECAL, will also be honoured with two monographic exhibitions. In the 1980s Jean Paul Gaultier overturned dress codes and showed the porous boundary between masculine and feminine. The fashion designer playfully reversed roles, overturned gender and designed silhouettes that combined masculine sensitivity with feminine power. When they were launched, the brand s perfume bottles also broke with the androgynous fashion of the 1990s. Now iconic, these served as the starting point for photographic exploration by students of the Bachelor in Photography at ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne. For this research project directed by Florence Tétier and Nicolas Coulomb – under the watchful eye of Claude Emmanuelle Gajan-Maull, consultant LGBTQIA+ – the photography class questioned the human body and its representations. The images created in 2021 by the 12 students relate to themes of pride and tolerance. These works show that commitment to a more inclusive society also relies on images. A publication, co-edited by ECAL x Jean Paul Gaultier x Novembre and designed by Baptiste Gerbelot Barillon & Jean Marques, is also being published to coincide with this exhibition.DATESOPENING RECEPTION Friday 4 February, 6pm EXHIBITION From 5 February to 24 April 2022 ADRESSEMusée des beaux-arts du Locle Rue Marie-Anne-Calame 6 2400 Le Locle www.mbal.chARTISTSDominique Bartels, Julie Corday, Matthieu Croizier, Diego Fellmann, Florian Hilt, Samara Krähenbühl, Angèle Marignac-Serra, Antoine Martin, Lisa Mazenauer, Marvin Merkel, Inès Mermoud, Basil Pérot, Yolane Rais, Camille Spiller, Yul Tomatala

ECAL x Fondation Martin Bodmer - Scripts of the World,24.01–20.03.2022,Fondation Martin Bodmer, Cologny (GE) ECAL / University of Art and Design Lausanne and the Fondation Martin Bodmer have joined forces to celebrate typographic creation and the scripts of the world. ECAL will present original projects in contemporary typography and graphic design, from its Bachelor Graphic Design and Master Type Design programmes, comparing them with Fondation Martin Bodmer s UNESCO listed heritage through a series of lectures, events and workshops on Sunday afternoons on 6 February, 27 February and 20 March 2022. 6 February 2022, 14:00-18:00 The Scripts of Aram: Syriac-Aramaic Typefaces (FR/EN) Registration At the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees, the Switzerland and Liechtenstein office of the UNHCR, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, collaborated with the students of the ECAL Master Type Design on a case: the Syriac script. Historically used to transcribe languages over a vast geographical area, Syriac is today mainly used as the liturgical script of Eastern Christians. Speakers of Modern Aramaic languages live in Syria, Lebanon, Turkey, Iraq, but compose mainly a worldwide diaspora. While only a few digital fonts exist, providing contemporary and innovative typefaces would contribute to broadening the possibilities for the language to thrive, as well as to cultivate community ties. This day proposes to celebrate Syriac writing and Aramaic culture through the collections of the Martin Bodmer Foundation, typography projects of the ECAL and various reflections on writing, its power, its relationship to politics, language and identity.

With this technique, a typeface is digitally redesigned from a historical typeface, or serves as a template from which a new design is developed, more or less faithfully to its source. The success of these digital fonts and their distribution are interesting mechanisms, which will also be discussed, mirroring the long history of typography, reflected in the collections of the Martin Bodmer Foundation.

Photographic Editions Starting from the premise that the book constitutes both an alternative practice to the exhibition and an alternative exhibition practice - alternative exhibition practices insofar as the book and the printed word are essentially modes of visibility of art; alternative practices to the exhibition because this means of visibility is very different from what is usually called an exhibition - we consider the book to be the medium that is perfectly suited to soon-to-be-graduated photographers.

VR Sequences 2022 VR Music Video projects created by second-year students in the Bachelor of Media & Interaction Design program. La page blanche Taking inspiration from a 1970s building, a virtual architecture has been created, emphasizing the drawing experience. The viewer becomes immersed in this house where the lines come to life, reimagining an original space. The sketch extends beyond its paper, allowing a hybrid drawing to envelop the viewer. By Elina Crespi and Martino De GrandisIncident "Incident" is an immersive VR project exploring 3D worlds. Inspired by the "Max Headroom incident," where a broadcast was hijacked, the artists aim to recreate the unsettling sensation of losing control over screens. By Paul Dorsaz and Julien CauletVRONIC The sequence introduces VRonique, the main character and guide, in Le Salon . This project marks an early exploration of VR sequences and motion capture, evident in the character s intentional jittery movements and the non-finalized render quality. Created in collaboration with Graphic Designer Thomas Neyroud and Photographer Louis Michel, VRonique offers a glimpse into a future that blurs reality and the virtual world. By Adryan Barilliet

Launch of AIZI – a unique database of Chinese characters,08.12.2021,www.aizi.ch Developed by a team composed of both designers (ECAL/Ecole cantonale d art de Lausanne) and engineers (EPFL – The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne), the AIZI research project offers a unique database of Chinese characters – consisted of 93,876 entries – in order to help type designers draw Chinese typefaces: www.aizi.ch www.aizi.ch Despite being used by some 900 million native speakers, the Chinese writing system currently relies on a small number of digital typefaces, in print or on screen. This is partly due to the quantity of characters. There is no official figure, but some dictionaries reach up to 106,230 glyphs, with the Unicode standard featuring “only” 20,902 glyphs. A Chinese scholar knows over 13,000 and being able to read a mere quarter of this figure is nothing to be ashamed of in contemporary China. For a designer, creating a Chinese typeface can easily take more than a year and represents a far greater investment, both in time and money, than a Latin (or Greek, or Cyrillic) one. These practical difficulties also limit foreigners interest in Chinese type design, as the task seems insurmountable. Could Artificial Intelligence (AI) help Chinese type design overcome its current limitations? Is it possible to teach a Machine Learning programme about the rules of Chinese composition and design in order to enable it to create the thousands of glyphs required for a typeface? “The initial idea behind the AIZI research project was to define a reduced set of basic “seed” characters that could be used as training data for an AI system, with the ultimate goals of democratising the design of Chinese typefaces and access to script for beginners and foreigners and to expand the stylistic range for a writing system that is largely dominated by traditional brush-based calligraphic shapes. Eventually, this could lead to greater quality in the production of fonts for Chinese script”, explains Shuhui Shi, who launched the project as part of the ECAL Master Type Design. Rooted in traditional structures, the system that has been developed analyses and rationalises the construction of glyphs and has resulted in a database – available in open access on www.aizi.ch – that could be used to train AIZI algorithms as well as any other future AI tools. The database contains 93,876 entries and is geared towards type designers, providing them with the reference needed to draw a set of Hanzi, even if they do not speak or read Chinese. AIZI was developed by a team composed of both designers (ECAL) and engineers (EPFL). As part of the ECAL Master Type Design programme, Shuhui Shi, initiator of the project, was in charge of the design part in collaboration with Kai Bernau, under the supervision of Matthieu Cortat. The Machine Learning process and algorithms were developed by Wei Wang, under the supervision of Mathieu Salzmann from the EPFL Computer Vision Laboratory.
