The GAIV (Vincennes Art and Computer SCience Group) was launched at the University of Vincennes (now Paris 8 University) in the wake of May 1968. This multidisciplinary group brought together various personalities, including Hervé Huitric, Monique Nahas, Jean-Claude Halgand, Jacques Dupré, Fanie Dupré, Jean-Claude Marquette, Louis Audoire, Roger Tanguy, Patrick Greussay, Pierre-Louis Neumann, Jacques Arveiller, Jérôme Chailloux, Michel Bret and Sonia Charalambides. Using the resources offered by computers, the GAIV encouraged collaboration between artists, musicians and scientists at the Vincennes IT department. At a time when it was still difficult to access computer equipment, these digital pioneers experimented and produced works based on a programming aesthetic. These works challenged the hierarchies between the arts and shed new light on the relationship between art and technology, from "pixel by hand" to the first on-screen modelling.
