The design, analysis, circulation and archiving of films and videos are at the heart of a growing number of research projects in the Arts, Humanities, Languages and Social Sciences. The advent of digital tools has accelerated this trend: annotating, preserving and sharing audiovisual documents have thus become common practice for many researchers, despite the technical and scientific difficulties that these corpora continue to pose. This international colloquium focuses on the different approaches and methods applied to the exploration of natively digital or digitized audiovisual documents. It aims to bring together researchers from different disciplines (history, sociology, information and communication sciences, education sciences, film studies, performing arts, anthropology, etc.) to share case studies and concrete experiences.

For almost twenty years, densification has been the predominant issue in urban planning policies and documents. Successive laws, notably the Solidarité et renouvellement urbain (Solidarity and Urban Renewal) Act in 2000, have encouraged local authorities to halt excessive urban expansion. The 2021 Climate and Resilience Act goes further, imposing the concept of ZAN (zero net artificialisation) by 2050, with a prior halving of artificialisation by 2031. Despite these laws, the aim remains to concentrate urbanization on already urbanized areas. However, these areas are often home to natural and cultural heritages, which raises questions about how to reconcile densification and preservation of these heritages.

The symposium Catalysing worlds: towards a deepening of territories through agriculture is based on the premise that architecture and agriculture are two practices with specific relationships to the environment, and that both therefore shape our ways of living. The aim of this project is to explore the prospects and modalities for updating the links between these two practices, at a time of urgent reconnection with living environments. At a time when, in France in particular, for more than 60 years, the logic of food production and cultivation has been increasingly disconnected from soils and ecosystems, we believe that we need to deepen our relationship with territories, and that this must involve recognition of the fundamental role of agriculture, in conjunction with architecture.

In a world where technology is evolving at breakneck speed, artificial intelligence is emerging as a new force capable of transforming many areas of law. One area where AI (artificial intelligence) is making a noticeable difference is the insurance sector. Indeed, with an increasingly competitive market and growing demands from various insurance players, the sector is undergoing rapid transformation, bringing both opportunities and challenges for insurers and claimants.

This seminar is devoted to the study of circulations from the South to the North, with a view to deconstructing the "British Empire" as a homogeneous category of thought, in order to write and think about the intellectual, artistic and political histories of people circulating within this political space known as the Commonwealth of Nations in the post-Bandung period. In line with previous work on the networks, exchanges and transfers between artists, intellectuals and political activists from the global South within this space, we seek to question the counter-hegemonic nature of the knowledge, theories and artistic practices produced since Bandung. Through this seminar, we aim to analyze the circulation and transfer of political and cultural ideas, as well as the intellectual trajectories of individuals, collectives and institutions.

Do emotions undermine democracy, as is often thought? Or do intense emotions, on the contrary, have an important political function, particularly in democratic regimes? It seems that emotions can build and sustain democracies, but also threaten or even destroy them. This series of round-table discussions addresses the ambivalent role of emotional manifestations in contemporary democracies. Through four historical case studies, it extends a current of research that is currently making waves in Germany and France: the history of emotions.
