With Ghislaine Chabert, we organized in 2008 in a research group of the University Savoie Mont-Blanc in Annecy (France) a first international event on visual methods entitled “Visual and sensory methodologies to research and represent hypermedia and virtual practices. Dorle Drackle (DE), Edgar Gomez Cruz (ES), Francesco Lapenta (DK), Sarah Pink (UK), Izabel Meister (BR), José da Silva Ribeiro (PO) and Giuseppe Losacco (IT) were present. It was an opportunity to discuss in scientific terms the research works in social sciences made up of both written documents and audiovisual productions (film; website; video game; hologram; application; etc.).
The first objective of this Web site is to contribute to the continuation of the epistemological discussion on these visual and digital methods which evolve. For that, it is necessary to preserve works, in a context of fast obsolescence of the software and difficulties of the research groups and the libraries to archive correctly these works. This is why we try to preserve works that we have directed or co-directed, despite the disappearance of some productions.
This site takes the name of a multidisciplinary exhibition that took place in 2011 at the University of North Texas in Dallas Denton (USA): visualdistance.com

FIFA Videogame

This project is a research and analysis accomplished by students of master 2 Image Interactivity International.

The research focuses on the gaming process (offline or online) in situational terms.

What are the perception and the personal projections of the users in the case of FIFA 16?

The Parkour Method

The Parkour Method is a visual and interdisciplinary methodological proposition advanced by Lilyana V. Petrova. Constructed in three stages, this methodological arrangement is adapted to the observation of mobile fields and more widely to the study of mobilities.

Goodposterdesign

Noa Real Garcia was able to carry out three projects related to the visual presentation of the results of her thesis research, in collaboration with three students from the Master Création Numérique at the University Savoie Mont Blanc. For this, a world of good design was created in virtual reality, which contained: an exhibit of animated posters created according to the concepts of good poster design, a wall with quotes on good design, a game in which the user must choose which one of two poster proposals is most appropriate, and also a short video in 360º introducing the space created in virtual reality, which represented the final project brought to life.

A social capital perspective from communication processes

The following work aims to study the motivations to participate and publish in social networks. We use the concept of social capital from Bourdieu to understand this scenario where the possibility for the people to make online contributions and participate has become almost an obligation to exist. The object of this research is a Facebook group made by almost 130.000 women that is focused in to discuss the choice of not taking hormones as a form of contraception.
