EDITER project presentation news
The Screen-Paper-Editing (Écran-Papier-Éditer, EPE) project was led by ESAD•GV from December 2023 to late 2025 under the research unit “Designing Tools, Tools for Design”. This initiative, developed in collaboration with a consortium of five national and international partners, addresses a critical issue: the hegemony of a handful of editing tools has severely limited design choices for online content layout. We argue that open-source tools can expand design possibilities by leveraging web technologies. Furthermore, these new toolchains promote ecological sustainability by enabling precise control over what is published on paper. It is therefore based on website content that we design hybrid editorial objects that combine screen and paper: web-to-print. Situated at the intersection of graphic production professions—with a particular focus on graphic design practices—EPE serves as both a conceptual and practical toolbox. Its goal is to develop open-license software modules that foster alternative and creative communication between screen and paper. As part of Work Package 8 of the EPE cooperation project, this closing “Kick-out” event features public lectures and an exhibition showcasing selected works from the project’s two-year activities. The EPE project is funded by the European Union (CREA-CULT-2023-COOP, grant agreement 101131949).
