In reference to In Praise of Idleness by English philosopher and mathematician Bertrand Russell (1872-1970), the students invented forms of fighting to reconquer the right to do nothing, created conditions for boredom and proposed systems bordering on the absurd inviting people to waste their time and go round in circles.

Julien Carretero
After studying in France and
England and a professional
career that took him from
the Netherlands to Brussels
and then to Saint-Étienne,
Julien Carretero questions the
organisation contemporary
production systems. He often
develops his own manufacturing
processes at the intersection
between craft and industry
and strives to divert traditional
know-how to turn them into
mass production processes.
Founded in 1973, the family-owned company Serge Ferrari designs, manufactures, and distributes innovative flexible composite materials for lightweight architecture and interior design applications.
