Expo Installations Mathieu Pernot Lyon
Dans le cadre de l'exposition Archives de l'Infamie. Michel Foucault, Une collection imaginaire, la Bibliothèque de la Part-Dieu, à Lyon, organise une "Carte blanche à Mathieu Pernot"
En écho au texte de Michel Foucault, La vie des hommes infâmes, l’exposition présente un montage de trois travaux réalisés par Mathieu Pernot et réunis pour la première fois.
Le Dortoir est une installation constituée de 19 lits provenant d’un établissement pénitentiaire et de 25 matelas récupérés dans une caserne. L’assemblage des lits met en forme un dortoir inquiétant, démesuré et mutant à chaque nouvelle mise en espace. Reprenant des architectures du logement social, de panoptique ou de bâtiments administratifs, Le Dortoir évoque à la fois l’institution, la cité dortoir ou le squelette d’un immeuble.
La série Les Hurleurs montre des personnages en train de communiquer avec un proche incarcéré. Ils constituent une forme de choeur des déclassés, de théâtre silencieux de la douleur.
Les Photomatons ont été réalisés avec des enfants tsiganes. La rigueur du dispositif rappelle les photographies normatives et identitaires et interroge la nature du regard porté sur ces communautés. En installant ces deux corpus d’images de chaque côté du Dortoir, Mathieu Pernot établie un lien entre la figure institutionnelle des lits et la présence de ces personnages vivant à la marge.
Le montage de l’exposition met en espace un rapport de pouvoir et l’idée d’une possible résistance face à l’institution. Le corps des hurleurs ainsi que le visage des enfants font face au dortoir qui semble les attendre. Comme si les enfants s’inquiétaient d’un possible placement, et que le cri des hurleurs était étouffé par le silence des matelas.

New Photo Flash and Backlight Driver ICs Announced by Analogic Tech
AnalogicTech’s New Photo Flash and Backlight Driver ICs Optimize Power Efficiency in Feature Phone Designs
AnalogicTech (Advanced Analogic Technologies, Inc.) announces a new set of flash and backlight White LED (WLED) drivers for the highly competitive feature phone market. Offering new efficiencies in power usage in highly compact packages, the AAT3176, flash driver and the AAT3351 WLED driver promise to help handset designers extend battery life and reduce product footprint.
“Over the last few years AnalogicTech has built up a comprehensive product line of lighting solutions for cell phone and mobile device designs by constantly pursuing innovative approaches to the problems designers face,” said Phil Dewsbury, product line director for AnalogicTech. “By improving power efficiency, reducing board footprint and simplifying LED control while preserving the flexibility and safety features in our existing products, these two new charge pump-based devices take those achievements to a new level.”
Reduced PCB requirements
Operating from a 2.7V to 5.5V input voltage, the AAT3176 flash driver IC supplies up to 500 mA output current. The dual mode charge pump maximizes power efficiency by supporting both 1X and 2X operation and can be programmed across 16 distinct steps via AnalogicTech’s patented S²Cwire™ (Simple Serial Control) interface. Coming in the industry’s smallest package for a 500 mA flash driver IC – 20% smaller than comparable devices – the AAT3176 allows designers to build highly compact camera lighting solutions.
To maximize design flexibility and minimize programming time, the AAT3176 uses separate external resistors to set maximum flash and movie-mode current. To protect the integrity of the device, the driver features a thermal management system that includes open- and short-circuit protection and automatic soft-start circuitry. A load disconnect feature extends battery life by disconnecting the load during shutdown and reducing quiescent current to less than 1.0 µA.
High Efficiency LED Driver
The AAT3351 is a high efficiency charge pump capable of driving up to 4 White LEDs at up to 30 mA each. The dual-mode fractional charge pump automatically switches between 1X and 1.5X modes based on input voltage, LED forward voltage and load current to maximize efficiency. A 1 MHz switching frequency helps minimize external component size.
To smooth transitions between brightness levels, the device uses AnalogicTech’s S²Cwire™ serial digital interface to enable, disable and set current to any of 32 levels. LED current output accuracy is ±10% and LED current matching is 3%. The AAT3351 also adds automatic soft-start circuitry and built-in short-circuit protection.

Ahmet Ertug, Photographies de Bibliotheques, Exposition à la BnF
The Picton Reading Room, Liverpool Public Library, Angleterre © Ahmet Ertug
Le photographe turc Ahmet Ertug a sillonné l’Europe à la découverte des plus belles bibliothèques du monde occidental. Les architectures les plus élégantes ont été érigées du XVIe au XIXe siècle pour recueillir et transmettre la mémoire du monde. Plus de trente photographies proposent un voyage dans l’univers de ces lieux singuliers. Pour Bruno Racine, président de la BnF, « les très grands formats, le talent de coloriste et la technique particulière dont use Ahmet Ertug rendent justice à la splendeur de ces palais des savoirs ». Diplômé en 1974 de la prestigieuse Architectural Association School de Londres, Ahmet Ertug se convertit à la photographie alors qu’il est encore étudiant, en documentant la vie urbaine anglaise. Il travaille ensuite comme architecte en Angleterre, en Iran et en Turquie. Entre 1974 et 1976, il se consacre à un vaste travail d’enquête photographique en Iran. En 1980, lauréat du très prestigieux Japan Foundation Fellowship, il parcourt le Japon, accumulant un matériel photographique considérable sur les jardins zen, les fêtes rituelles et les temples anciens. A son retour à Istanbul, il décide de se consacrer entièrement à l’art de la photographie. Nommé pour participer au plan de conservation de la ville historique, il photographie le patrimoine séculaire d’Istanbul. Ses images des monuments ottomans et byzantins, réalisées à la chambre, marquent les esprits par leur caractère spectaculaire. Ces photos, comme d’autres qu’il réalise par la suite, sont exposées à de nombreuses reprises, sous l’égide de l’Unesco, à Madrid et Toronto, mais également à New York et Paris. Les photographies des bibliothèques d’Europe, dernier opus d’Ahmet Ertug, s’inscrivent dans ce travail de coloriste et d’architecte. Elles possèdent les qualités et la force d’un maître de l’espace et de la lumière. A travers la sensibilité de celui qui fréquente les espaces du sacré, elles invitent le spectateur à la méditation. Ahmet Ertug nous fait découvrir, de la Prusse à l’extrémité de l’Espagne, de l’Angleterre jusqu’aux profondeurs de l’empire austro-hongrois, les stupéfiantes architectures que les peuples ont imaginées, au cours des quatre derniers siècles, pour accueillir la lecture. Des bibliothèques baroques de monastères autrichiens aux grandes bibliothèques laïques du XIXe siècle, l’exposition explore la manière dont les hommes ont pratiqué cette discipline particulière, la lecture des lettrés, exercice pratiqué dans le silence des grands volumes.
