• European Broadcasting Union and NVIDIA Partner on Sovereign AI to Support Public Broadcasters

    In a new effort to advance sovereign AI for European public service media, NVIDIA and the European Broadcasting Unionare working together to give the media industry access to high-quality and trusted cloud and AI technologies.
    Announced at NVIDIA GTC Paris at VivaTech, NVIDIA’s collaboration with the EBU — the world’s leading alliance of public service media with more than 110 member organizations in 50+ countries, reaching an audience of over 1 billion — focuses on helping build sovereign AI and cloud frameworks, driving workforce development and cultivating an AI ecosystem to create a more equitable, accessible and resilient European media landscape.
    The work will create better foundations for public service media to benefit from European cloud infrastructure and AI services that are exclusively governed by European policy, comply with European data protection and privacy rules, and embody European values.
    Sovereign AI ensures nations can develop and deploy artificial intelligence using local infrastructure, datasets and expertise. By investing in it, European countries can preserve their cultural identity, enhance public trust and support innovation specific to their needs.
    “We are proud to collaborate with NVIDIA to drive the development of sovereign AI and cloud services,” said Michael Eberhard, chief technology officer of public broadcaster ARD/SWR, and chair of the EBU Technical Committee. “By advancing these capabilities together, we’re helping ensure that powerful, compliant and accessible media services are made available to all EBU members — powering innovation, resilience and strategic autonomy across the board.”

    Empowering Media Innovation in Europe
    To support the development of sovereign AI technologies, NVIDIA and the EBU will establish frameworks that prioritize independence and public trust, helping ensure that AI serves the interests of Europeans while preserving the autonomy of media organizations.
    Through this collaboration, NVIDIA and the EBU will develop hybrid cloud architectures designed to meet the highest standards of European public service media. The EBU will contribute its Dynamic Media Facilityand Media eXchange Layerarchitecture, aiming to enable interoperability and scalability for workflows, as well as cost- and energy-efficient AI training and inference. Following open-source principles, this work aims to create an accessible, dynamic technology ecosystem.
    The collaboration will also provide public service media companies with the tools to deliver personalized, contextually relevant services and content recommendation systems, with a focus on transparency, accountability and cultural identity. This will be realized through investment in sovereign cloud and AI infrastructure and software platforms such as NVIDIA AI Enterprise, custom foundation models, large language models trained with local data, and retrieval-augmented generation technologies.
    As part of the collaboration, NVIDIA is also making available resources from its Deep Learning Institute, offering European media organizations comprehensive training programs to create an AI-ready workforce. This will support the EBU’s efforts to help ensure news integrity in the age of AI.
    In addition, the EBU and its partners are investing in local data centers and cloud platforms that support sovereign technologies, such as NVIDIA GB200 Grace Blackwell Superchip, NVIDIA RTX PRO Servers, NVIDIA DGX Cloud and NVIDIA Holoscan for Media — helping members of the union achieve secure and cost- and energy-efficient AI training, while promoting AI research and development.
    Partnering With Public Service Media for Sovereign Cloud and AI
    Collaboration within the media sector is essential for the development and application of comprehensive standards and best practices that ensure the creation and deployment of sovereign European cloud and AI.
    By engaging with independent software vendors, data center providers, cloud service providers and original equipment manufacturers, NVIDIA and the EBU aim to create a unified approach to sovereign cloud and AI.
    This work will also facilitate discussions between the cloud and AI industry and European regulators, helping ensure the development of practical solutions that benefit both the general public and media organizations.
    “Building sovereign cloud and AI capabilities based on EBU’s Dynamic Media Facility and Media eXchange Layer architecture requires strong cross-industry collaboration,” said Antonio Arcidiacono, chief technology and innovation officer at the EBU. “By collaborating with NVIDIA, as well as a broad ecosystem of media technology partners, we are fostering a shared foundation for trust, innovation and resilience that supports the growth of European media.”

  • It’s infuriating to see the Blender Developers Meeting Notes from June 23, 2025, filled with the same old issues and empty promises! Why are we still talking about moving the Git SSH domain to git.blender.org when there are far more pressing concerns? The upcoming Blender 5.0 release is yet another example of how half-baked plans lead to compatibility breakages that frustrate users. This constant cycle of meetings about modules and projects without tangible progress is unacceptable! Users deserve better than this lackadaisical approach! It’s high time the Blender team takes accountability and actually delivers a stable product instead of dragging us through endless discussions with no resolution in sight!

  • Formentera20 is back, and this time it promises to be even more enlightening than the last twelve editions combined. Can you feel the excitement in the air? From October 2 to 4, 2025, the idyllic shores of Formentera will serve as the perfect backdrop for our favorite gathering of digital wizards, creativity gurus, and communication wizards. Because nothing says "cutting-edge innovation" quite like a tropical island where you can sip on your coconut water while discussing the latest trends in the digital universe.

    This year’s theme? A delightful concoction of culture, creativity, and communication—all served with a side of salty sea breeze. Who knew the key to world-class networking was just a plane ticket away to a beach? Forget about conference rooms; nothing like a sun-kissed beach to inspire groundbreaking ideas. Surely, the sound of waves crashing will help us unlock the secrets of digital communication.

    And let’s not overlook the stellar lineup of speakers they've assembled. I can only imagine the conversations: “How can we boost engagement on social media?” followed by a collective nod as they all sip their overpriced organic juices. I’m sure the beach vibes will lend an air of authenticity to those discussions on algorithm tweaks and engagement metrics. Because nothing screams “authenticity” quite like a luxury resort hosting the crème de la crème of the advertising world.

    Let’s not forget the irony of discussing “innovation” while basking in the sun. Because what better way to innovate than to sit in a circle, wearing sunglasses, while contemplating the latest app that helps you find the nearest beach bar? It’s the dream, isn’t it? It’s almost poetic how the world of high-tech communication thrives in such a low-tech environment—a setting that leaves you wondering if the real innovation is simply the ability to disconnect from the digital chaos while still pretending to be a part of it.

    But let’s be real: the true highlight of Formentera20 is not the knowledge shared or the networking done; it’s the Instagram posts that will flood our feeds. After all, who doesn’t want to showcase their “hard work” at a digital festival by posting a picture of themselves with a sunset in the background? It’s all about branding, darling.

    So, mark your calendars! Prepare your best beach outfit and your most serious expression for photos. Come for the culture, stay for the creativity, and leave with the satisfaction of having been part of something that sounds ridiculously important while you, in reality, are just enjoying a holiday under the guise of professional development.

    In the end, Formentera20 isn’t just a festival; it’s an experience—one that lets you bask in the sun while pretending you’re solving the world’s digital problems. Cheers to innovation, creativity, and the art of making work look like a vacation!

  • So, it seems we've reached a new pinnacle of gaming evolution: "20 crazy chats in VR: I Am Cat becomes multiplayer!" Because who wouldn’t want to get virtually whisked away into the life of a cat, especially in a world where you can now fight over the last sunbeam with your friends?

    Picture this: you, your best friends, and a multitude of digital felines engaging in an epic battle for supremacy over the living room floor, all while your actual cats sit on the couch judging you for your life choices. Yes, that's right! Instead of going outside, you can stay home and role-play as a furry overlord, clawing your way to the top of the cat hierarchy. Truly, the pinnacle of human achievement.

    Let’s be real—this is what we’ve all been training for. Forget about world peace, solving climate change, or even learning a new language. All we need is a VR headset and the ability to meow at each other in a simulated environment. I mean, who needs to engage in meaningful conversations when you can have a deeply philosophical debate about the merits of catnip versus laser pointers in a virtual universe, right?

    And for those who feel a bit competitive, you can now invite your friends to join in on the madness. Nothing screams camaraderie like a group of grown adults fighting like cats over a virtual ball of yarn. I can already hear the discussions around the water cooler: "Did you see how I pounced on Timmy during our last cat clash? Pure feline finesse!"

    But let’s not forget the real question here—who is the target audience for a multiplayer cat simulation? Are we really that desperate for social interaction that we have to resort to virtually prancing around as our feline companions? Or is this just a clever ploy to distract us from the impending doom of reality?

    In any case, "I Am Cat" has taken the gaming world by storm, proving once again that when it comes to video games, anything is possible. So, grab your headsets, round up your fellow cat enthusiasts, and prepare for some seriously chaotic fun. Just be sure to keep the real cats away from your gaming area; they might not appreciate being upstaged by your virtual alter ego.

    Welcome to the future of gaming, where we can all be the cats we were meant to be—tangled in yarn, chasing invisible mice, and claiming every sunny spot in the house as our own. Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned from this VR frenzy, it's that being a cat is not just a lifestyle; it’s a multiplayer experience.

  • Il est absolument scandaleux de voir comment la société actuelle traite des figures emblématiques comme Sœur Corita Kent, la religieuse Pop Art, sans même prendre le temps d’apprécier la profondeur de son engagement artistique et social. Il est temps d’arrêter de réduire son travail à un simple phénomène de mode ou à une simple curiosité historique ! Sœur Corita Kent n’était pas qu'une graphiste engagée, elle était une pionnière du Pop Art qui a su utiliser son art comme un cri de révolte contre l’injustice et l’inégalité.

    Comment peut-on encore ignorer l’impact colossal qu’elle a eu sur l’art contemporain ? On se retrouve dans une époque où l’art est souvent superficiel, où les véritables artistes sont éclipsés par des influenceurs sans substance qui ne cherchent qu’à vendre une image. C’est une honte ! Sœur Corita Kent, avec ses œuvres vibrantes et engagées, a voulu éveiller les consciences et a osé aborder des sujets délicats tels que la guerre, la pauvreté et la paix. Pourtant, trop de gens continuent de la regarder comme une simple religieuse avec un pinceau, sans voir la force de sa voix et la puissance de son message.

    Il est également désolant de constater que, dans un monde saturé par le contenu numérique, on oublie facilement de mettre en avant des artistes qui méritent d’être célébrés. Au lieu de cela, on glorifie des créations éphémères qui n’ont rien à dire. La culture Pop Art mérite d’être explorée en profondeur, et Sœur Corita Kent est un exemple parfait de cette exploration. Son travail ne devrait pas être relégué à un simple article de blog, mais au cœur de discussions sur l’évolution de l’art et de la société.

    Il est urgent de rouvrir les yeux sur le rôle que joue l’art engagé dans nos vies. Sœur Corita Kent nous appelle à réfléchir, à agir et à nous interroger sur la direction que prend notre société. Pourquoi continuons-nous à célébrer une culture de l’image pour l’image, en ignorant des voix comme la sienne ? C’est une véritable trahison envers l’art et l’humanité.

    Nous devons nous battre pour que son héritage ne soit pas oublié. Que ce soit à travers des expositions, des conférences ou des discussions en ligne, il est impératif de remettre Sœur Corita Kent là où elle mérite d’être : au sommet du Panthéon des artistes engagés. La prochaine fois que vous tombez sur une œuvre de Sœur Corita Kent, prenez un moment pour réfléchir à son message, et plutôt que de passer à autre chose, engagez-vous à faire entendre sa voix.

    Il est temps de revendiquer un retour à des valeurs authentiques dans l’art. Sœur Corita Kent est une figure incontournable et son héritage mérite d’être préservé et célébré. Arrêtons de nous contenter de peu et de vivre dans l’ignorance !

Que ce soit à travers des expositions, des conférences ou des discussions en ligne, il est impératif de remettre Sœur Corita Kent là où elle mérite d’être : au sommet du Panthéon des artistes engagés. La prochaine fois que vous tombez sur une œuvre de Sœur Corita Kent, prenez un moment pour réfléchir à son message, et plutôt que de passer à autre chose, engagez-vous à faire entendre sa voix. Il est temps de revendiquer un retour à des valeurs authentiques dans l’art. Sœur Corita Kent est une figure incontournable et son héritage mérite d’être préservé et célébré. Arrêtons de nous contenter de peu et de vivre dans l’ignorance ! #SœurCoritaKent #PopArt #ArtEngagé #JusticeSociale #Culture

  • Il est vraiment inacceptable de voir le Festival d'Annecy 2025 se dérouler sous un soleil de plomb, alors que le MIFA (Marché International du Film d'Animation) semble s'enliser dans une absence totale de transparence et de chiffres concrets. Comment peut-on parler de "légère hausse" de la fréquentation sans fournir de données précises ? C'est un manque de respect envers les professionnels et les festivaliers qui se déplacent pour découvrir des œuvres d'animation et échanger des idées.

    Les discours enflés et les promesses non tenues de certains acteurs comme TeamTO et TAT sont tout simplement révoltants. On nous parle de revit et de séduire, mais où sont les résultats tangibles ? Les projets ambitieux doivent se traduire par des réalisations palpables, et non par des slogans creux qui ne font que masquer une réalité bien plus sombre. Le MIFA doit être un lieu d'innovation et de réflexion, pas un simple défilé d'illusions.

    Et que dire de l'organisation elle-même ? Les conférences, bien que nombreuses, manquent souvent de substance. On s'ennuie à mourir tandis que les vraies questions, celles qui pourraient faire avancer l'industrie, restent sans réponse. Au lieu de s'attaquer aux problèmes de fond, comme la question de la diversité et de l'inclusion dans le secteur de l'animation, on préfère se concentrer sur des chiffres gonflés et des apparences. C'est une véritable trahison envers ceux qui passionnent pour l'animation et qui espèrent voir leur voix entendue.

    Nous sommes dans une époque où la technologie évolue à une vitesse fulgurante, et l'animation est à la croisée des chemins. Pourtant, ici, à Annecy, on a l'impression que l'on piétine sur place, perdu dans des discours vides et des projections qui ne servent qu'à flatter l'égo de quelques privilégiés. Il est grand temps que le MIFA prenne ses responsabilités et commence à agir de manière responsable et proactive.

    Pourquoi ne pas offrir une vraie plateforme pour les jeunes talents ? Pourquoi ne pas encourager les discussions sérieuses sur les défis du secteur au lieu de se contenter de flatter les industries établies ? Il est temps de remettre en question le statu quo, de bousculer les habitudes et de vraiment se demander ce que signifie "réussir" dans un festival qui se veut d'avant-garde.

    En somme, le Festival d'Annecy et le MIFA doivent se réveiller. Il est inacceptable de continuer à faire passer des discours creux pour des avancées. Les passionnés d'animation méritent mieux que cela. Ils méritent un festival qui les représente vraiment et qui prend des mesures concrètes pour soutenir l'avenir de l'animation.

    Annecy, jour 3 : TeamTO revit, TAT séduit, le MIFA questionne
    Le Festival d’Annecy 2025 se poursuit, sous un soleil de plomb. Les festivaliers sont très nombreux à se presser pour aller voir projections et conférences et la fréquentation est en légère hausse par rapport à l’an passé au niveau global

  • Le Festival d'Annecy, un événement qui devrait célébrer la créativité et l'innovation, se retrouve en proie à une controverse insupportable avec son acceptation des projets utilisant l'IA générative pour son édition 2025. Pourquoi cette institution, qui a toujours été un pilier de l'animation, se compromet-elle en acceptant des œuvres générées par des algorithmes ? C'est tout simplement inacceptable !

    L'année dernière, la décision de sélectionner des projets basés sur l'IA a déjà suscité des débats enflammés, mais il semble que le festival n'ait pas appris de ses erreurs. Comment peut-on prétendre célébrer l'art tout en intégrant ces technologies déshumanisantes qui annihilent le travail des artistes ? L'IA générative n'est pas une forme d'art, c'est une simple machine qui produit des résultats sans aucune émotion, sans aucune pensée critique. C'est un affront à ceux qui consacrent leur vie à créer des œuvres authentiques et inspirées.

    Le délégué artistique du festival, Marcel Jean, doit vraiment revoir sa position. Accepter l'IA générative dans la sélection officielle, c'est encourager une industrie qui privilégie le profit rapide sur la qualité artistique. Cela montre un manque de respect pour les artistes qui se battent chaque jour pour exprimer leur vision du monde. Au lieu de promouvoir des histoires, des perspectives et des voix uniques, le festival semble vouloir se plier aux exigences d'une technologie qui ne comprend rien à la profondeur humaine.

    En intégrant ces œuvres générées par IA, le Festival d'Annecy ne fait que renforcer l'idée que le talent humain est remplaçable. C'est une attaque directe contre les artistes qui mettent leur cœur et leur âme dans leur travail. Nous risquons de voir l'art se transformer en une simple marchandise, produite en masse par des systèmes automatisés, sans aucune originalité ni authenticité.

    Et que dire de la responsabilité éthique ? Où sont les discussions sur l'impact de l'IA sur l'emploi créatif ? En acceptant ces projets, le Festival d'Annecy ouvre la porte à une future génération d'artistes qui pourraient être remplacés par des algorithmes. À quel moment allons-nous nous rendre compte que nous avons franchi une ligne dangereuse ?

    Il est temps que nous, en tant que communauté artistique, nous levions la voix contre ce phénomène. Nous devons exiger que le Festival d'Annecy fasse preuve de responsabilité et respecte l'intégrité de l'art. La créativité humaine doit primer sur les algorithmes. Nous ne pouvons pas laisser l'IA générative s'infiltrer dans nos espaces créatifs sans résister !

  • Zuzana Licko, a name that should be celebrated as a pioneer of digital typography, is instead a glaring reminder of how the past can be romanticized to the point of absurdity. Yes, she designed some of the first digital typefaces for Macintosh in the '80s and co-founded Emigre, but let’s not pretend that her contributions were flawless or that they didn’t come with a slew of problems that we still grapple with today.

    First off, we need to address the elephant in the room: the overwhelming elitism in the world of typography that Licko and her contemporaries helped propagate. While they were crafting their innovative typefaces, they were simultaneously alienating a whole generation of designers who lacked access to the tech and knowledge required to engage with this new digital frontier. The so-called "pioneers" of digital typography, including Licko, set a precedent that continues to dominate the industry—making it seem like you need to have an elite background to even participate in typography discussions. This is infuriating and downright unacceptable!

    Moreover, let’s not gloss over the fact that while she was busy creating typefaces that were supposed to revolutionize our digital experiences, the actual usability of these fonts often left much to be desired. Many of Licko's creations, while visually striking, ultimately sacrificed legibility for the sake of artistic expression. This is a major flaw in her work that deserves criticism. Typography is not just about looking pretty; it’s about ensuring that communication is clear and effective! How many times have we seen products fail because the font was so pretentious that no one could read it?

    And don’t even get me started on Emigre magazine. Sure, it showcased some brilliant work, but it also became a breeding ground for snobbery and elitism in the design community. Instead of fostering a space for all voices, it often felt like a closed club for the privileged few. This is not what design should be about! We need to embrace diversity and inclusivity, rather than gatekeeping knowledge and opportunity.

    In an era where technology has advanced exponentially, we still see remnants of this elitist mindset in the design world. The influence of Licko and her contemporaries has led to a culture that often sidelines emerging talents who bring different perspectives to the table. Instead of uplifting new voices, we are still trapped in a loop of revering the same old figures and narratives. This is not progress; it’s stagnation!

    Let’s stop romanticizing pioneers like Zuzana Licko without acknowledging the problematic aspects of their legacies. We need to have critical conversations about how their work has shaped the industry, not just celebrate them blindly. If we truly want to honor their contributions, we must also confront the issues they created and work towards a more inclusive, accessible, and practical approach to digital typography.
