Nelly Ben Hayoun has been called the Willy Wonka of design and science. Born in Valence, Drôme, France, Ben Hayoun now resides in London, United Kingdom. An award-winning director and experience designer, she works with leading scientists and engineers to devise subversive events and experiences.[1] Ben Hayoun is also an exhibitor and keynote speaker who has worked with leading museums and design centres across the world. Her work is known for bringing "chaos, subversion and disorder into the design and scientific world". Nelly Ben Hayoun Studio
Ben Hayoun collaborated with Beck, Bobby Womack, Damon Albarn, Maywa Denki, Bruce Sterling and Penguin Café in a musical collaboration that took music into space. Blasted from a Japanese launch pad in August 2013 and her most ambitious project to date; she assembled the International Space Orchestra - the world first orchestra of space scientists from NASA Ames Research Center, Singularity University, International Space University and the SETI Institute.
In 2013, Icon Magazine nominated Ben Hayoun as one of the 50 international designers “shaping the future”.[2]
Background
Ben Hayoun is a visiting professor at the Architectural Association School of Architecture (Unknown Fields Division), a lecturer and researcher at Central Saint Martins [3] and the Royal College of Art. Ben Hayoun is a contributing writer at Domus[4] and Design Indaba[5] and guest writer at We Make Money Not Art,[6] Blueprint [7] and Bruce Sterling’s blog "Beyond the Beyond" on Wired.
Ben Hayoun had an eclectic education, initially trained in painting then Textile Design at Olivier de Serres National College of Art and Design in Paris and then graduated from Design Interactions (MA) at the Royal College of Art. She is currently a a researcher (PhD Candidate) in Human Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London, UK.[8]
Designer of Experiences at SETI Institute
Ben Hayoun was appointed Designer of Experiences at the SETI Institute under the supervision of David Morrison, Jill Tarter, Karen Randall, Franck Marchis, Adrian Brown and Janice Bishop in May 2013.[9] Her work at SETI focuses on extending outreach activities and design in terms of scope, scale, and methods of engagement towards architecture, installations, environments, social system, performances, experiences and narratives, as events.
Extreme Fieldwork
Ben Hayoun speaks about the value of ‘extreme’ fieldwork which she considers an essential part of designer training. For Ben Hayoun, designing experiences implies tangibility, hence fieldwork, and working collaboratively with experts [10]. Ben Hayoun’s design practice brought her investigation to the empty lands of Chernobyl Exclusion Zone and the Large Hadron Collider, CERN situated 100m below ground.[11] She has also collided atoms at SLAC, trapped herself in a Soyuz rocket capsule in Baikonur Cosmodrome[12], and experienced a sonic Booum in the neutrino Observatory Super Kamiokande[13] in Japan.
About her practice she said: "My working method is to go in situ in scientists’ research centres and design events that radically change and adapt their attitudes to their research to a non-scientific audience’s creative needs. Design should be embedded in a physical experience, it should be something you remember like seeing a painting and remembering the tone of it."[14]
Director of the International Space Orchestra (ISO)
Alongside her role as Designer of Experiences at the SETI Institute, Ben Hayoun is directing the International Space Orchestra at NASA Ames Research Center. The International Space Orchestra is a project she created and assembled over the summer of 2012, with a team of space scientists from the NASA Ames Research Center, SETI Institute (Search for Extraterrestrial Life), Singularity University, and the International Space University.[15][16]
In January 2013, the International Space Orchestra feature film, directed by Nelly Ben Hayoun, had its world premiere at the Rotterdam International Film Festival where it was acclaimed by the critic as a masterpiece (Independent Cinema Office, ICO), a real achievement (DOMUS), as thrilling as watching a rocket launch and Spine Tingling (The Guardian).
Launch in Space
Ben Hayoun's work Ground Control: An Opera in Space, performance recordings by the International Space Orchestra was launched in space on 4 August 2013.
On 4 August 2013, two ArduSat (Arduino based Nanosatellite run by the company Nanosatisfi) carrying the ISO recordings of Ground Control: An Opera in Space were launched aboard the H-IIB Launch Vehicle, HTV-4 from Yoshinobu Launch Complex at the Tanegashima Space Centre. A video of the launch is available for public access online.[17]
The recordings of Ground Control: An Opera in Space was recorded at Skywalker Ranch, George Lucas' studio, where Star Wars was developed.[18]
