Through the window

Traveling can be relaxing, enriching, and, above all, fun. But when it comes to daily commutes, an imbalance is felt. Through the everyday train window, my senses have lost the pleasure of being stimulated for the first time by an external element, a sound or a landscape, which have become nothing more than memories. In this podcast, I take the time to review how a video work helped me rediscover not my daily travels, but my own perceptual memories created by these travels.

  • The mystery of art studies

    12:44|
    When we meet people who don’t know anything about art studies during events like vernissage, they always ask the same questions about how it is. So with this podcast we wanted to demystify art studies, art school. Even for the futur art students. And for everyone who have no idea of this. To this end, we ask to two student at the end of cycle, Max Lelostec, in third year and Théo Pollaert, in fifth year ; how they wanted to come to art school? What they do actually, what is their practice ? And, what they wanted to do after the art school ? What is their professional project?By Raffik and Clara

  • The Intimacy of Childhood Memories

    16:26|
    Ninon Boulanger, Lou Maerten & Ferdinand Larat's podcast is based on different works of art about childhood. Whether songs, poems, tales, books, we allowed ourselves the freedom to choose any work as long as it dealt directly or indirectly with the theme of childhood. The idea was to explain the link we had with this work, when we discovered it, what it represented for us, if it was linked to certain elements of our life, and then to interview someone outside of our group and the English class, and to question their own connection with the work. The goal behind this approach was to collect different perspectives around the same work, to see the differences in points of view, perhaps linked to questions of generation, experience, or culture, and therefore to see how works of art can affect people differently, positively or negatively. The theme of childhood is recurrent in our respective work at ESA, which is why we quickly agreed on it. Moreover, it is a broad theme, which has been treated by a lot of artists with different processes (writers, painters, poets, etc.).
  • Body and Nature

  • Inside Thoughts

    20:20|
    We have decided to work second hand because it’s something that is important to talk about. Second Hand has made a big place in your way of consume, before it was because of money issues, today with influencers and ecology everybody looks into secondhand but there are problems with that. People who sell fast fashion to buy another cloth the day after, stores who call themself second hand but have scandalous prices, or people who buy on second hand site websites every week which in the end are not ecological.by Shannon Noubi, Rehanne Minette, Camille Viot, Stanley StaryReferences:https://www.journaldunet.com/retail/1512377-mode-de-seconde-main-impacts-positifs-et-negatifs-d-un-nouveau-mode-de-consommation/https://pubosphere.fr/la-seconde-main-une-fausse-bonne-idee/https://www.francetvinfo.fr/culture/mode/au-japon-aussi-le-vetement-d-occasion-se-democratise-apres-avoir-ete-longtemps-reserve-aux-hipsters_6253926.html
  • Yoko Uno

    06:26|
    This podcast is a fictional report about a fictitious competition that we imagined. The scene takes place during an international championship of the card game Yoko Uno, a fusion of the popular game Uno and the artist Yoko Ono. In this game, numbers are replaced by letters that players must shout out when they play them. It's a conceptual blend of neo-dadaism and fluxus, presented in a contemporary manner. We drew heavily from pop culture references, intertwined with art history. We portrayed all the characters and crafted a fantastic soundscape using freely available sounds from the BBC. Additionally, we incorporated Lionel Richie's song "All Night Long," which we slowed down to avoid copyright issues, similar to the approach of Patrick Zadou, the fictional inventor of Yoko Uno.by Oscar Descamps, Chloé Chamard
