Played continuously by the ensemble throughout the piece, the motif evolves under Julian Sartorius’s direction as he adapts the instrumentation (adding, substituting, or removing objects or instruments).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nA journey through minimalism, repetition, musical progression, and a deluge of sound. The concert stems from an experiment in which the addition, removal, or modification of basic elements generates new content. It also incorporates playfulness, the freedom to assemble elements, and the surprise of unexpected sound combinations. Much like many scientific protocols, this method—here applied to music—suggests avenues of convergence between scientific and creative practices.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hZ4HRiNTQC4?si=RXzPTogaFJIKH2dK\" width=\"560\"></iframe><br>\r\nAt 7 p.m. that evening, as part of the opening reception for the installation <strong>NO/NC (Normally Open/Normally Closed)</strong>, co-created with Archizoom, Julian Sartorius will give a solo concert.<br>\r\n---<br>\r\n<strong>Biography of <a href=\"http://www.juliansartorius.com/\">Julian Sartorius</a></strong><br>\r\nDrummer, percussionist, and artist Julian Sartorius shapes sounds into unique forms. His precise and rich rhythmic patterns are true explorations of the hidden sounds of found objects and prepared instruments, bridging the gap between organic timbres and the language of electronic music. Julian Sartorius has released numerous solo albums, created audiovisual works, collaborated with musicians, writers, and artists, and performed in everything from intimate venues to festival stages.</div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\"><br>\r\nTrained at the jazz schools in Bern and Lucerne under the guidance of musicians such as Fabian Kuratli, Pierre Favre, and Norbert Pfammatter, Julian Sartorius developed a unique musical approach at a very early age. Fascinated by small-scale variations, the interplay of tension and release, density, and vibration, he has created projects such as the 12-vinyl box set *Beat Diary* (Everest Records, 2012), comprising 365 rhythmic pieces accompanied by a book of photographs; the daily series of eight-second loops “Morphblog” (2013–2019); and “Depot,” an audiovisual installation for 16 speakers and 16 screens, presented at the Kunstmuseum in Thun. For his album “Hidden Tracks: Basel – Geneva” (Everest Records, 2017), Julian walked more than 200 kilometers with his drumsticks and recording equipment, playing and capturing a multitude of sounds and textures from objects he encountered along the way.<br>\r\n </div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\">In recent years, Julian Sartorius has collaborated with numerous musicians, including Sophie Hunger, Sylvie Courvoisier, Gyda Valtysdottir, Dimlite, Shahzad Ismaily, and Dan Carey. His instantly recognizable percussion work also appears on recent albums by Kate Tempest, Matthew Herbert, and James Zoo. Julian Sartorius has toured and performed in North and South America, Asia, and Europe, sharing the stage with artists such as Marc Ribot, Deerhoof, Faust, Jaki Liebezeit, and Arto Lindsay.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n---  <br>\r\n<a href=\"http://usinesonore.ch/\"><strong>Usinesonore</strong></a><br>\r\nThe Usinesonore association shares its passion for music by promoting it through various activities in the Canton of Bern and beyond. It was previously invited to EPFL in 2017.<br>\r\nFounded in 2006 by Julien Annoni and Olivier Membrez, two young Bernese Jura natives passionate about contemporary music, the Usinesonore association organizes events centered on today’s music.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe association’s activities focus on three main areas: organizing the Usinesonore Festival, the Ensemble We Spoke, and organizing parallel events (traveling concerts, custom-designed events, outreach activities, etc.).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEach event is shaped by careful consideration of how to share it with the audience. Usinesonore devotes all its energy to ensuring that the audience can experience the artistic moment, that they do not leave indifferent, and that they feel heard and supported throughout their experience.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Partner: <a href=\"http://usinesonore.ch/\">Usinesonore</a></strong><br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>",

The collective employs sensory cartography, creates drawings and texts, and composes music. On June 12 and 13, 2026, the Lake Geneva Bioregional Assemblies took place at the Vidy Theater, during which Hydromondes brought together a myriad of Franco-Swiss collectives to create a cross-border community dedicated to the care of the waters.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe collaboration between the collective and <a href=\"http://applicationspub.unil.ch/interpub/noauth/php/Un/UnPers.php?PerNum=1277309&amp;LanCode=37\">Nathalia Capellini,</a> a historian at the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and instructor in the EPFL’s SHS program, gave rise to the performance *Le Léman Cyborg*, presented on May 7, 2026, as part of the *Culturelles de printemps* festival. Nathalia Capellini’s course titled “Infrastructures” had fueled the project. This collaboration between the collective and the academic community will therefore continue for the Culturelles in October 2026, with a more participatory format—somewhere between an artistic presentation and a town hall meeting—in a playful atmosphere.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>&gt;&gt;&gt; Free admission; <a href=\"http://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/ffSBMqP21Y\">light refreshments provided upon registration</a></strong></div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW196505929\"> \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>",

The Petrichor installation aims to restore rain’s central role and encourage reflection on its presence. <br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe installation consists of two parts:<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>A 1-square-meter funnel </strong>that collects rainwater while amplifying its sound. The funnel is modeled after a flower—the bromeliad—which naturally collects rainwater. The water is then channeled into the second part of the installation.<br>\r\n\t.</li>\r\n\t<li><strong>A wooden cabinet containing 63 plastic containers, each holding 5 liters.</strong> All the containers are connected to one another by a system of pipes; the rainwater fills the containers from the bottom up. The 10 containers at the bottom of the cabinet are marked in blue; this corresponds to the minimum daily water intake for one person, as defined by the WHO, which is 50 liters. The containers above them—totaling 265 liters—represent the average water consumption of a person in Switzerland, as reported by the Federal Statistical Office. This cabinet highlights the contrast between these two volumes. By relating these figures to the collected rainwater, the installation demonstrates that water remains a limited resource and is therefore a major challenge for the world today and in the future.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW43647999\">The installation has aesthetic and auditory elements designed to enliven the campus and demonstrate a commitment to sustainability. Its goal is to encourage students to reflect on water usage and spark new ideas for managing this resource.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nLaunched in 2025, Petrichor is a project developed by the <strong>AAIE (Association of Artist-Engineers at EPFL),</strong> which aims to build a community around contemporary art on campus by organizing meetings with artists and museum outings. The association also provides students with opportunities to develop their own artistic creations.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis project received support from the Pôle Culture (VPI) as part of a <strong><a href=\"http://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/bourses-pour-projets-artistiques/\">competition</a></strong> held twice a year for student associations involved in campus culture.<br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>",

            "description": "<strong>Abstract: </strong>Transport systems underpin modern society, yet remain among the most challenging sectors to decarbonise. Achieving net-zero transport requires coordinated action across energy carriers, carbon flows and mitigation of other pollutants. This talk presents a multiscale engineering framework for sustainable mobility, organised around three complementary pathways: <u>f</u>uel development (F), <u>g</u>reenhouse-gas management (G) and mitigating <u>h</u>armful emissions beyond CO<sub>2</sub> (H). First, using solar-driven CO<sub>2</sub> conversion as an example, I will show how the precise transport of light, heat and fluids enables the coordinated design of materials, devices and systems, maximising solar-to-fuel conversion efficiency. Second, I will explore on-board carbon capture for road and maritime transport, together with distributed carbon-removal networks that use existing vehicles, ventilation systems and transport infrastructure. Third, I will discuss particulate matter generated by brake and tyre wear, illustrating how materials engineering can balance filtration efficiency, pressure drop and energy demand. Finally, the talk considers how techno-economic assessment and the interplay between technology, business and policy can move laboratory innovations towards industrial deployment.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography: </strong>Dr Xiangkun (Elvis) Cao (<a href=\"https://profiles.imperial.ac.uk/elvis.cao\">https://profiles.imperial.ac.uk/elvis.cao</a>) is currently an Assistant Professor at Imperial College London, holding joint appointments in Mechanical Engineering and the Grantham Institute. Cao leads the Laboratory for Integrated Green Harvesting &amp; Transport, the LIGHT Lab, which seeks to engineer the physical systems for a sustainable future. Before joining Imperial, Cao was a Schmidt Science Fellow at MIT, where he pursued integrated carbon capture and utilisation under the guidance of Professor Ted Sargent. He received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Cornell University, his MEng in Materials Engineering from McGill University, and dual bachelor’s degrees in Energy and Power Engineering and English Literature from Xi’an Jiaotong University. He has published more than 30 first- or corresponding-author papers in journals including <em>Joule</em>, <em>Matter</em>, <em>Device</em> and <em>Advanced Materials</em>. Cao was named one of MIT Technology Review’s 35 Innovators Under 35 globally in 2024 and was previously recognised in Forbes 30 Under 30 in Energy for North America. His other honours include the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation’s German Chancellor Fellowship, the Activate Fellowship, the MIT Climate &amp; Energy Prize, the Global Young Investigator Award in Separation Science, and the Carbon Capture Future Star Award, among others.",

            "description": "<br>\r\nThe <strong>EPFL Sustainable Labs team</strong> is pleased to welcome you to its recurring <strong>\"Sustainable Labs: Get Involved\"</strong> sessions. Held every week, alternating between <strong>Tuesdays and Thursdays</strong>, these sessions provide an opportunity for laboratories, platforms, centers, and units to receive guidance and support on implementing more sustainable laboratory practices.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe <strong>Sustainable Labs initiative</strong> is part of EPFL's <em>Climate &amp; Sustainability Strategy 2030</em>, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by an average of <strong>40% compared to 2006/2019 levels</strong> and achieve <strong>climate neutrality by 2040</strong>.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n→<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/about/sustainability/sustainability/green-labs_draft_ag/\"> </a><strong><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/about/sustainability/sustainability/green-labs_draft_ag/\">Learn more about the EPFL Sustainable Labs initiative</a>.</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nResearch activities are a key lever for achieving these ambitious goals. However, while cutting-edge research drives innovation, it also carries a significant environmental footprint. Laboratories consume large amounts of energy, generate substantial quantities of plastic, chemical, and biological waste, and contribute considerably to greenhouse gas emissions. At EPFL, we are committed to understanding and reducing this impact. Through the development and deployment of the <strong>EPFL CO₂ Calculator</strong>, we help researchers measure, understand, and improve the environmental performance of their activities.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nFrom <strong>October 8 to December 17, 2026</strong>, the <strong>Sustainable Labs: Get Involved</strong> sessions will focus on training and supporting users in the use of the <strong>EPFL CO₂ Calculator</strong>. This tool enables laboratories, platforms, centers, and central units to estimate their carbon footprint, identify major emission hotspots, and support informed decision-making to reduce their environmental impact through targeted actions.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHere are the planned sessions : \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Thursday October 8th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday October 13th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday October 22th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday October 27th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday November 5th 12:15-13:00(online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday November 10th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday November 19th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday November 24th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday December 3rd 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n\t<li>Tuesday December 8th 12:15-13:00 (MA A0 364)</li>\r\n\t<li>Thursday December 17th 12:15-13:00 (online) </li>\r\n</ul>\r\nSessions can be held in English and/ or French depending on the participants. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n→ Please register <a href=\"https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd7Cp6LevgtBLtsWIsKr2Ec_HPGjJgimmwEaGAN5U4M4-2rrg/viewform\">here</a>. For physical sessions, standing lunch will be provided!<br>\r\n<br>\r\nWhether you have questions about the EPFL CO₂ Calculator, need help interpreting your results, or would like advice on implementing more sustainable laboratory practices, our team will be happy to support you and answer your questions! <br>\r\n ",
