About

February 2, 2008

Electronest is a creative agency with hands-on technology, developing technology for design & communication purposes. We use culture, knowledge and skills as a means to develop new concepts, sustainable approaches and nice projects. Electronest acts on both sides of a project: design and development.

R-Echos is one of the brainchilds of Electronest (Pierre Schmidt and Jerome Rigaud) – at the beginning it was driven as a serie of online experiments, bit after bit it gained its autonomy as a new hybrid-form of magazine – an electronic presence. Here we reblog, republish and recontextualises news and favorites we come across in our daily work, from which Electronest forges its culture, knowledge and skills; it is our way to say thank you and give back to the community which continuously enlarges our perception and culture by sharing and creating new connections between various topics apparently not directly connected.

R-Echos acts as one of the tools we mainly use to archive and later retrieve information we may need in research projects.

Since 2004, R-Echos is an experimental online magazine dedicated to republication; topics vary from biology to graphic design, from ecology to business. It agglomerates anything which is about art, coimputing, science. His form is made out of collage of texts, links, images, reference, videos and sounds – choosen with care to take part to this very personnal publication.

    Discographisme recratif is both a documentary and collectional work begun in 1996. It’s composed of different
    iconographic montages made from record sleeves and CD jackets. The distinctive feature: these covers, be they
    45s, 33s, or CDs, mostly found at flea markets, have all been redone or modified by anonymous indivuals
    using the original covers as a guideline and as a source of inspiration. This book just issued compiles over 220
    fascinating and beautiful examples of found altered or homemade record sleeves.
    21 x 21 cm 224 pages
    (The first book issued in 2004 ever compiles around 100 sleeves – sold out)
