Research Project: “Regards Augmentés”
Forbidden Touch and New Media in Museums
The co-design lab works on a research project taking place within the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris. http://www.lesartsdecoratifs.fr/
ENSCI website: http://parisdesignlab.hypotheses.org/206
Our focus on the project is how to interact with objects that you cannot touch. We are producing representations and scenarios of use with the students of Telecom ParisTech who poetically explore the potentials of new media but also of photography, video and narrative that address this question of touch in Museum.

Translation as interlinguistic mediation and creation of human interactions
Annie Gentes, in Journal of Human Mediated Interactions, Vol.10, n°1, Sylvie Leleu-Merviel, Khaldoun Zreik (ed.), 2010.Abstract: In human interactions, translation stands apart both as a specific work on language but also as a reflexive situation of communication. Traductology studies not only languages and interlinguistic uses, but also questions the translating process as a mediation. In this article we want to analyze what translation does to the speakers, the nature and legitimacy of their interaction, the materiality of their exchanges. We also want to put forward the hypothesis that translation as a specific epistemological position brings a new light to language games, body and writing as specific spaces of creation. Translation is therefore analyzed here in terms of linguistic, political and poetic practice that directly concerns information and communication research.more on : http://europia.org/RIHM/V10N1.htm
