Driven by the EPFL Cultural Heritage & Innovation Center (CHC) in collaboration with the Claude Nobs Foundation, the “Montreux Jazz Digital Project” is an accelerator for research and innovation in technology, culture, social sciences, archiving and open science.
In 2007, Claude Nobs and Thierry Amsallem joined forces with the EPFL to create a unique, first of its kind, high resolution digital archive of the Festival. Considered both as an educational tool and research infrastructure, this audiovisual heritage has become a unique platform for students and researchers to innovate in fields such as acoustics, audio/video signal processing, data science, archiving, musicology, museology, design, architecture or neurosciences.
Cultural Heritage & Innovation Center
Known as the "Metamedia Center" from 2010 to 2020, the main objectives of the CHC are:
Digitize and preserve audiovisual collections and heritages of major importance in Switzerland or in the world.
Enrich and enhance these collections by organizing research and innovation projects with EPFL laboratories, start-ups and partners.
