The Montreux Jazz Festival and EPFL presented on June 19th the Montreux Jazz Heritage Lab, an interactive and inhabitable space that allows the user to plunge into 45 years of jazz, blues and rock concerts. Seen from the outside, the dark structure lets beams of light and fragments of images escape. The prevailing intensity is unmistakable. The side wall opens, letting in new users. The light wood interior is distinguished by a low table and an interactive display of specially designed geometry. Four users take their seats and are isolated from all external noise influences. Two of them simultaneously explore the contents on the table.
