Summary
Le Collier Magique is the first volume of Les Voyages Fantastiques de Téo & Léonie, an educational adventure series that introduces young readers to historical figures, places and inventions through storytelling.
Artanim developed the mobile augmented reality application accompanying the first volume. By interacting with the book, readers can discover additional educational content and bring a selection of Leonardo da Vinci’s inventions to life as 3D objects.
The experience extends the story beyond the printed page, combining reading, 3D visualization and augmented reality. The adventure is also available as an audiobook narrated by Benoît Allemane.

Summary
Montreux Jazz Video Jukebox is an immersive audiovisual installation developed in collaboration with EPFL to explore highlights from the Montreux Jazz Festival digital concert archive.
The installation allows visitors to navigate a selection of 49 iconic musical moments using natural body gestures. A motion capture system tracks the user’s movements in real time, transforms them into sound, and uses them as an interface to browse and interact with audiovisual content.
Montreux Jazz Video Jukebox was installed near the entrance of the Auditorium Stravinski during the 2015 Montreux Jazz Festival.

Summary
3D In Motion (3DIM) is an interactive framework for capturing, visualizing and sonifying human movement in real time. It turns the body into an expressive interface for creating and controlling 3D graphics and sound.
Movements are tracked using motion capture systems such as Vicon, Xsens or Kinect and instantly translated into visual and sonic events. Participants can use their entire body to manipulate virtual content, generate sound and even sculpt forms in 3D while immersed in a spatial audio environment.
3DIM is designed for live and real-time performance, including dance, music events and experimental artistic projects. The interaction can involve a single performer or multiple participants sharing the same interactive environment.
