Hype(r)Olds

Gangs of wired seniors, a project by the artists Albertine Meunier and Julien Levesque supported by the association MCD.


Based on Albertine Meunier’s experiment in Paris with women aged 77 and older (Tea Time with Albertine), Hype(r)Olds is the first Internet and multimedia workshop for women aged 77 and older, a successful project that is currently being implemented in regional cities.

Using digital art as a catalyst for social interaction, Hype(r)Olds is not a class but a friendly tea-time meeting that invites participants to use digital media to create artwork, gain knowledge and inspire discussion around the themes and terms of new media. These wired ladies will learn about DIY coders, hackers, « Anonymous »..., tell the « French Touch » story, explain Podcasting…
