In the first part of my talk, I will introduce a method we have developed that allows us to resolve the spatial distribution of stresses in sheared soft-materials, known as Boundary Stress Microscopy. We have applied this technique to suspensions undergoing shear thickening. I will present our results on the existence of clearly defined dynamically localized regions of substantially increased stress that appear intermittently at stresses well above the applied stress. Surprisingly, we find that these spatially distinct and dynamic phases quantitatively account for the observed shear thickening seen in sheared colloidal dispersions (e.g. Oobleck). In the second part of my talk I will discuss our results on the rheology of active matter. Our system is composed of microtubules and kinesin motor proteins that self-assemble to form complexes that propel themselves through the fluid. What results is a dramatic alteration in the measured viscosity. I will provide a simple physical model that fits the rheological response with zero fitting parameters. <br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography: </strong>Daniel Blair is a Professor of physics and a co-founding member of the Institute for Soft Matter Synthesis and Metrology I(SM)2 at Georgetown University.

It includes a concrete exercise focused on observation and representation of spatial concepts, followed by group discussions in the afternoon.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Indicative Workshop Program</strong><br>\r\n8:30 Welcome - <a href=\"https://share.google/X1SgCZ8Oqe8LvxXek\">SG Building</a>, <a href=\"https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SG%20294.22\">SG foyer</a>, level 2, <a href=\"https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SG%20294.22\">SG 294.22</a><br>\r\n9:00 Conference <br>\r\n10:00 Explanation of the exercise data<br>\r\n10:30 Start of the exercise<br>\r\n12:30 Lunch break<br>\r\n13:30 Resume the exercise<br>\r\n15:00 Group discussion<br>\r\n15:30 Summary, conclusion, film<br>\r\n16:00 End of workshop<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>For these workshops, please bring your favourite medium: pencil, possibly in different hardnesses, coloured pencils, felt-tip pens, charcoal, gouache and brushes.</strong>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2024-09-13T09:01:04", "last_modification_date": "2026-02-09T11:13:14", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [], "speaker": "", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/education/education-and-science-outreach/fr/promotion-de-l-education/\">Service de promotion de l'éducation (SPE)</a>, <a href=\"http://architecture.epfl.ch\">EPFL Architecture</a>", "contact": "<a href=\"mailto:[email protected]\">[email protected]</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": "futur·es étudiant·es, gymnasien·nes, lycéen·nes", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/113399/", "category": { "id": 4, "code": "DIVERS", "fr_label": "Autres types d’événement", "en_label": "Miscellaneous", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/391/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72494, "title": "Autonomous discovery of materials for solid-state Li-ion batteries", "slug": "autonomous-discovery-of-materials-for-solid-stat-4", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/autonomous-discovery-of-materials-for-solid-stat-4", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33739/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33739/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33739/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-09", "end_date": "2026-10-09", "start_time": "17:30:00", "end_time": null, "description": "<p>Thesis Director: Prof. N.

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).

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" ] } ] }
