Cette collection préserve des micro-organismes provenant de régions menacées telles que les Alpes et l'Arctique et compte déjà plus de 2000 spécimens.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nL’artiste a sélectionné des levures, bactéries et champignons souvent vieux de 12’000 ans, qu’elle a cultivés dans son propre studio et photographiés tous les deux jours. Les différents micro-organismes sont déposés sur un fond d’agar pour qu’ils puissent se développer. Leur évolution est rapide et hasardeuse. La documentation est méthodique : plus de 13'300 photographies ont été prises représentant des instantanés de matière vivante.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nDeux séries de photographies ont été produites : l’une se concentre sur des monocultures, dans lesquelles une souche microbienne sélectionnée occupe une boîte de Pétri et se propage largement. En adaptant les méthodes d'inoculation et les milieux de culture, différentes impulsions sont déclenchées. La deuxième série fait cohabiter plusieurs organismes différents. La lutte pour les nutriments dans le milieu de culture ainsi que les symbioses qui peuvent se développer entre les microbes sont documentées. La pratique d’atelier se mêle à la pratique de laboratoire.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>L’exposition</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nL’exposition<em> Unearthed</em> présente 18 photographies de plusieurs micro-organismes différents évoluant dans les boîtes circulaires qui les abritent. Filaments, textures, entrelacs, pointillés, cercles produisent des configurations abstraites spectaculaires. Les couleurs enchantent et vivifient les formes en turbulente circulation et en constante métamorphose. Les photographies pointent le sublime de l’extraordinaire variété des cellules : la naissance du vivant.<br>\r\nLes photographies de Rahel Oberhummer révèlent deux nécessités indissociables : d’une part celle de comprendre le vivant même dans ses organismes les plus simples et d’autre part de le préserver. Parallèlement, il s’agit de créer des images qui manifestent la qualité visuelle des formes et des couleurs de ces micro-organismes. Notre rapport à la nature exige l’admiration de sa beauté. Aujourd’hui, des artistes comme Rahel Oberhummer s’engagent dans une double mission : participer activement à des processus scientifiques et créer des images sensibles tout autant que savantes.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Collaborations</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nSérie photographique réalisée en collaboration avec l’Institut fédéral de recherches sur la forêt, la neige et le paysage (WSL). Unité : Biodiversité et écologie de la conservation.<br>\r\nDr. Beat Frey, Dr. Joel Rüthi, Dr. Ivano Brunner, Beat Stierli<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Eléments biographiques</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nRahel Oberhummer (*1991, Loèche-les-Bains) est diplômée de la HEAD, Genève. Elle a étudié aussi à la Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhague, à la Hochschule für Kunst und Design de Lucerne et au Billy Blue College of Design à Sydney. Au début de l’année 2026, elle a obtenu une résidence de trois mois à Hanoï, au Vietnam, dans le cadre d’un séjour de recherche soutenu par Pro Helvetia et accueilli par l’espace Exutoire. Elle vit et travaille à Vevey.<br>\r\nLa relation entre les structures sociales humaines et les formes de vie non humaines est au cœur de son approche artistique. Rahel Oberhummer se concentre sur les interactions subtiles entre les humains et l'environnement, avec une attention soutenue pour les écosystèmes dont nous dépendons et que nous mettons pourtant en danger. Des questions se posent, que l'artiste explore à travers une recherche scientifique autant qu’artistique.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://www.raheloberhummer.ch/\"><strong>>>> Site web de l'artiste Rahel Oberhummer</strong></a><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Vernissage</strong> le jeudi 7 mai 2026 à 18 :30 <br>\r\n<strong>Exposition visible jusqu’au 11 octobre 2026<br>\r\nHall du RLC / entrée libre</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>Image</u> :<em> </em>Dioszegia patagonica 001, Pochonia/Metacordyceps chlamydosporia 205, Pseudogymnoascus pannorum 511, Potato Dextrose Agar with sepia ink, 2022.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-03-16T17:17:43", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-26T15:56:40", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Hall du Rolex Learning Center", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==RLC%20G1%2094.12", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://www.raheloberhummer.ch/\">Rahel Oberhummer, artiste</a>", "organizer": "Pôle Culture EPFL", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">Véronique Mauron Layaz</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120096/", "category": { "id": 5, "code": "EXPO", "fr_label": "Expositions", "en_label": "Exhibitions", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/22/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72519, "title": "White Shadow - Exhibition", "slug": "white-shadow-exhibition", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/white-shadow-exhibition", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33781/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33781/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33781/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-14", "end_date": "2026-10-14", "start_time": "18:30:00", "end_time": "20:00:00", "description": "<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW254063798\"><strong>Opening Reception: Wednesday, October 14 at 6:30 p.m.<br>\r\nExhibition on view from October 14, 2026, through February 9, 2027</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nWhat if, one day, all our photographs suddenly transformed and became the very objects they depict? They would flood our living spaces with landscapes, selfies, cats, vehicles, and meals scattered as far as the eye can see.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEvery day, we produce images, messages, and data that we store on servers and in the cloud. But what becomes of this digital output?<br>\r\n<em>White Shadow</em> is a series of photographs created by <a href=\"http://collectif-fact.ch/\">collectif_fact</a> (Annelore Schneider and Claude Piguet). It was produced using photogrammetry, a technology that transforms photographs into 3D models. The images are generated from data sourced from online libraries. The result is a dizzying architecture so pervasive that it erects barriers and isolates individuals from one another. A society is emerging, grappling with media saturation, sensory overload, and a crushing ecological impact. A world is emerging where images have taken over, colonizing and transforming space until they become the only reality still visible.<br>\r\nThis narrative is a metaphor that prompts reflection on our responsibility regarding our daily digital output and its consequences for the environment.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"http://collectif-fact.ch/\">collectif_fact</a><br>\r\ncollectif_fact, founded by Annelore Schneider (1979, Neuchâtel) and Claude Piguet (1977, Neuchâtel), explores the economics of the contemporary image through video and photography, drawing on speculative narratives and fiction. Their works have been exhibited at institutions such as the Maison européenne de la photographie (Paris), the Centre d’art contemporain (Geneva), the Swiss Cultural Center (Paris), the Hiroshima Museum of Contemporary Art, the Lianzhou Foto Festival, the Metropolis Art Center (Beijing), and the Fotomuseum Winterthur. They recently received the Landis & Gyr residency in London, the New Point of View Award from This is Short (European Short Film Network), and the Best Short Film Award at the International Festival of Films on Art (FIFA). They are represented by Galerie Wilde in Geneva.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nTheir works—videos, photographs, and installations—are part of the following collections: the City of Paris Municipal Contemporary Art Fund, Haus der Elektronischen Künste, Basel; the Lyon Museum of Contemporary Art; the Federal Office of Culture, Bern; the Fotomuseum Winterthur; the Neuchâtel Museum of Art and History; La

These singularities generate cusps that limit the global regularity of the wave function in spectral Barron spaces, which are particularly relevant to the analysis of Fourier-based approximation methods and neural networks.<br>\r\nIn this talk, we study the effect of extracting a truncated Jastrow factor designed to capture the leading coalescence singularities while preserving the asymptotic behavior of the wave function at infinity. We show that the resulting quotient gains one full order of spectral Barron regularity: whereas the original wave function typically belongs to spaces of order (s<1), the Jastrow quotient belongs to those of order (s<2). An explicit hydrogenic example shows that the threshold (s=2) is natural.<br>\r\nThe proof relies on conjugating the Hamiltonian by the Jastrow factor and carrying out a global Fourier-space analysis. It combines resolvent estimates, precise control of singular coefficients, and a fixed-point argument separating low and high frequencies.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n---<br>\r\nThe electronic structure reading group brings together researchers and students interested in mathematical aspects of electronic structure problems and adjacent topics, including:\r\n</p><ul>\r\n\t<li>Density Functional Theory</li>\r\n\t<li>Many-body Schrödinger equation for electrons</li>\r\n\t<li>Born-Oppenheimer Molecular Dynamics</li>\r\n\t<li>Numerical analysis and error control</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nWebsite: <a href=\"https://matmat.org/readinggroup/\">https://matmat.org/readinggroup/</a><br>\r\n ", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-08-25T16:31:13", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-02T11:49:52", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "True", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "GC B3 31", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==GC%20B3%2031", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://team.inria.fr/matherials/team-members/virginie-ehrlacher-galland/\">Virginie Ehrlacher (ENPC)</a>", "organizer": "Michael Herbst, Noé Blassel, Niklas Schmitz", "contact": "Michael Herbst, Noé Blassel, Niklas Schmitz", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121568/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/7/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/14/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/191/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/246/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72531, "title": "Slip pulse earthquakes", "slug": "slip-pulse-earthquakes", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/slip-pulse-earthquakes", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33771/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33771/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33771/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-12", "end_date": "2026-10-12", "start_time": "12:15:00", "end_time": "13:15:00", "description": "<strong>Abstract</strong>:<br>\r\nThe spatiotemporal dynamics of frictional systems, ranging from engineering interfaces in mechanical joints to tectonic faults that host earthquakes, are governed by the propagation of interfacial rupture. A prominent rupture mode is self-healing slip pulses, which feature a finite slipping zone. The physics of slip pulses is qualitatively different from their expanding crack-like counterparts, as they involve the interplay between leading-edge contact breakage and trailing-edge re-strengthening (healing). The latter is intrinsically related to generic properties of frictional interactions at contacting interfaces, absent in ordinary fracture of bulk materials. In this talk, I will review a recently developed theory of two-dimensional slip pulses, which revealed intriguing dynamical properties of slip pulses and provided extensive predictions for their spatiotemporal evolution. The theoretical predictions are supported by large-scale numerical simulations and, more recently, by extensive laboratory experiments. The implications and potential applications of the theory will be discussed as time permits. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>References</strong>:\r\n<ol>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2309374120\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"open in new window\">The dynamics of unsteady frictional slip pulses</a> [PNAS 120, e2309374120 (2023)]</li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0012821X26000142\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"open in a new window\">An equation of motion for unsteady frictional slip pulses</a> [EPSL 678, 119831 (2026)]</li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.26065\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"open in a new window\">Lab earthquakes confirm the theory of frictional slip pulses</a> [arXiv:2608.26065 (2026)]</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography:</strong><br>\r\nEran Bouchbinder is a Professor at Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel.

Yet in accepting this reality, we take for granted several questions that loom large within the contemporary idea of learning. In a time when technology and information are ubiquitous, does it still make sense that for learning to happen or be confined within a place? Is learning still an asymmetrical relationship where there are teachers and a student? And above all, is learning accessible, or has it become too expensive a commodity? In this lecture series, we’ll attempt to answer these questions by investigating learning on different levels such as technology, construction systems, educational spaces, and above all, making architecture. Indeed, the question that is more than anything else crucial to us is whether architecture is still a place of learning and not only of empowering those who have capital to build it. We will look at schools, drawings, robots, and measuring devices. We will ponder whether these things are only ‘tools’ to achieve a result or can still be vital places for learning. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Recordings available on YouTube</strong><br>\r\n@epflarchitectureschool<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Graphic Design</strong><br>\r\nRoman Karrer & Sandi Gazic", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-08-14T16:40:18", "last_modification_date": "2026-08-17T13:17:23", "link_label": "Poster School Lecture Series Fall 2026", "link_url": "https://go.epfl.ch/school-lecture-series-fall-2026", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Foyer SG", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room=%3DSG%20294.22&dim_floor=2&lang=fr&dim_lang=fr&tree_groups=centres_nevralgiques_grp%2Cmobilite_acces_grp%2Crestauration_et_commerces_grp%2Censeignement%2Cservices_campus_grp%2Cequipements_grp&tree_group_layers_centres_nevralgiques_grp=&tree_group_layers_mobilite_acces_grp=metro&tree_group_layers_restauration_et_commerces_grp=&tree_group_layers_enseignement=guichet_etudiants&tree_group_layers_services_campus_grp=information_epfl&tree_group_layers_equipements_grp=&baselayer_ref=grp_backgrounds&map_x=2532923&map_y=1152547&map_zoom=12", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Thomas Friberg + Sophie Piticco, pool Architektur", "organizer": "<a href=\"http://[email protected]\" target=\"_blank\">EPFL Architecture</a>", "contact": "<a href=\"http://[email protected]\" target=\"_blank\">EPFL Architecture</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121435/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/32/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/417/?format=api" ] } ] }
