SAT’s public research center supports experimentation for the creation of collective experiences through a collaborative research and development approach.
Its research axes are immersion, co-creation and collective interaction.
In an ongoing dialogue with artists and drawing on research-creation methodologies, we develop an open, accessible and interoperable technological toolbox for the creation of collective experiences in technological arts.
The research center also aims to act as an open innovation hub, helping to structure the digital creation ecosystem through federating initiatives linking the artistic and academic communities and the creative and cultural industries, in the spirit of the living laboratory.
Its approach is based on a continuum going from exploration to technology and knowledge transfer, through several stages: exploration, validation, maturation, transfer.
The Innovation Department team brings together a wide range of expertise in a variety of roles:
The department’s organization strives to be as cross-functional as possible, including at least one member of each of these profiles in each project and promoting feedback between their various expertise and skills.
