This is the presentation of the "Interactive Systems and Objects" department of Strate Collège (The leading French Design school). The new frontier of AI is the object !!! We create in 2008 the concept of Robjects (contraction of Robot and Object), that have the ability to represent the world, perceive the world, take decisions and act. We never like the concept of "Connection" for it is such a limited approach of the magic of … Robjects.

The new convergence
22
• Chip, software, A.I., new materials, telecommunications,
are potentially invading every object, place, and situation
of our daily lives.
• The human environment is going to be colonized by
« intelligent objects ».

The stakes of « Living Objects Design »
22
• The so called « digital design» stakes are in the material world and not
behind the screen, i.e. cannot be reduced to the interface….
• It is the big return of materiality, of the body experience,
of sensitivity in a world populated with objects wich may (will ?) become
our peers.
• New challenges for designers :
• Invent and use the tools and methods definig behavioral design
• Manage complexity
• Think « systems »
• Integrate the ethics, politics, and philosophical issues of a of world shared with
intelligent objects

Y 22
A.Prasit
2003
Y is a urban ritual installation
through which, slowly, an
individual is getting rid off his/
her identity, to become an
angel.
After quitting all his/her clothes,
he/she wears a special suit
which hides his/her sexual
identity, wear his/her head with
a virtual reality helmet, and
then jump into a static flight,
becoming an angel.
Eventually, when /eshe comes
back to reality, his/her back still
gets the stygmata of his/her
lost wings.

Oboe is humanoid robot, has got a heart (Kokoro) containing
its knowledge as well as those transmitted by its masters.
After it has disappeared, a ritual of sharing and transmission
of this knowledge can thus be organised for the descendants.

With "Paki, the Hippo" Paul Berger has
created a fun system of measure and
control of energy and water
consumption for primary schools.
Paki is an interactive educational tool
that consists in a tangible interface -
Paki itself - and peripherals
programmed and installed by the pupils,
who thus become responsible actors of
tomorrow's world.
