Hyperlab

with Vincent Jacquier, Angelo Benedetto, Ali-Eddine Abdelkhalek, Jean-Vincent Simonet, Clément Rouzaud

In collaboration with the HYPEROUEST music festival, ECAL students were given the opportunity to design a visual installation in the room adjacent to the festival's ephemeral club, located on the Veillon wasteland in Crissier. For this project, 1st-year students worked in groups, mixing Bachelors in Graphic Design, Media & Interaction Design and Photography. Their main objective was to create powerful and creative visual sequences around the central theme of "HYPER". At the same time, second-year students in the Graphic Design option enriched this project by developing the exhibition's visual identity. These interdisciplinary collaborations stimulated exchanges and encouraged visual cohesion, connecting the different ideas and reinforcing the "laboratory" and experimental aspect of the project.

Ali-Eddine Abdelkhalek – The Pathfinder

by Ali-Eddine Abdelkhalek

My project is an automated clip (done for the track “Dions Road” by RJHC) making use of the interfaces and applications in our computers. The purpose is to create a live scenario on each user’s screen. The user can see his daily tools used in another way than what they’re expected to be used for. He feels partly surprised, partly awkward toward this hacking which takes control of his machine. My work is about automated digital processes and misappropriation. It questions our relation toward user interfaces which are now part of our daily lives.
