Random Distractions (: is an exhibition imagined by Lucas and Alice, respectfully designer and communicator. Sharing a common passion for committed, accessible, and meaningful design, this exhibition reflects our desire to collaborate on a project that embodies our shared aspirations: to imagine, create, and above all, to convey a form of design that aligns with today’s global challenges. Through a selection of seven projects from Lucas’s experimentations, Random Distractions (: explores the tensions between critical thinking, creative process, and collective engagement. The objects and installations focus on themes such as circularity, material reuse, technology, and social or political dynamics, approached through a transdisciplinary and open-source lens. Rather than glorifying the final result, this exhibition aims to highlight the detours: the wobbly prototypes, the inspiring failures, the unfinished or revived ideas, and the unexpected exchanges between friends, artists, engineers, or curious minds. Random Distractions (: thus aims to be a living, interactive, and evolving space that invites visitors to understand the behind-the-scenes of contemporary design creation.

Exhibited projects:

CLEAR – Circular Electronics Upcycled - Transparent audio objects made from old electronic components, recovered, dismantled, and reassembled. CHAIR – Parametric Furniture Numerical Simulated - A series of unique chairs designed from a single parametric model, digitally simulated to automatically adapt to reused materials of various shapes, without having to redraw each piece.

RBAG – Open Source Textile Objects - A collection of open-source accessories and garments, easy to make using upcycled materials, with free patterns and 3D-printable spare parts.

REDISTRIBUTE – Visual Representation of Wealth Scales. - Redistribute is a visual project that makes economic inequalities more tangible by translating abstract amounts into concrete forms such as distance, time, or volume.

RITMO – Visual Coding Performance - Ritmo is a visual and performative project that generates real-time visuals based on gestures, sounds, or presence captured by sensors, here via a Kinect — even in extreme conditions like night, rain, or fog.

MODULAIR – Multiple Modular Products - A modular system of objects connecting the fields of furniture, lighting, and audio.

RENDER – Machine-Learned Art Reinterpretation -
