Embedded with physicists
Héloïse Chochois is a young illustrator who spent four months in the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides. There, she lived with the physicists, the researchers, the students, and the PhD students in order to capture the many facets of this world. She attended an experiment at a Synchrotron, followed a physics course, lived for a few days with a PhD student in a lab, attended conferences, and shared a lot more moments of the physicists’ life. And there is the result: a nine episodes comic book as well as an exhibition that you can use freely!

Light Science Design ? The framework
The physicist doesn’t consider light as the designer. He sees it as a set of rays governed by geometric laws, or as electromagnetic waves traveling at the speed of light, or even as an ensemble of individual quantum photons, both particles and waves.In Light-Science-Design, we proposed to design students to get inspired by these scientific visions of light and transpose them into their world.Three types of projects have emerged; some with an educational purpose, some creating hybrid objects in between design and pedagogy, and some being kinds of setups witnessing the creative process of the designer himself.
This project was developed in collaboration between the students of the workshop “Design and Research” of François Azamboug at the school of design ENSCI-Les Ateliers, and the physicist Julien Bobroff (Physics Autrement, LPS, University Paris -South). He was supported by the LABEX PALM, the Institut de Physique of the CNRS and Université Paris Sud.
It also benefited from the support of the Chair « La Physique Autrement » led by Fondation Paris-Sud and sponsored by Air Liquide.

We have developed with domain experts seven 3D animations that describe modern microscopies: tunneling, electron, polarizing, phase contrast and dark field, atomic force.

Nine students in scientific illustration were asked to explain magnetism with the constraint of using real magnetic phenomena in their productions. Magnets, iron powder and compasses accompanied them for two months, for this work conducted in collaboration with physicists. The results are as original as they are innate: magnetic hedgehogs, boxes and kits, graphic pop-ups, diamagnetic levitation, discover new faces of magnetism.
The four projects
This work is the result of a collaboration between the DSAA DIS of the Ecole Estienne and Julien Bobroff (Physics Reimagined, LPS, University Paris-Sud)
