# Science Fun: From the connected home of tomorrow to the technologies of the past

Welcome to the program co-produced by the University of Montpellier andDivergence-FM, which takes you on a cruise through the laboratories of the Muse archipelago.  In this program, we invite you to meet Anne-Sophie Cases, professor at theInstitute of Business Administration and the new coordinator of HUT,Human at Home Project,who will talk to us about the future of connected homes.

In the second part of the program, theEn salle des machines(In the Engine Room) segment takes you back in time with the Patstec collection. Audrey Theron introduces us to the UM's contemporary scientific and technical heritage. Enjoy!

Hello and welcome, everyone, to this stopover on our scientific cruise. So forget your swimsuits and sunglasses—due to the bitter cold, we're staying on shore today! It's time to get cozy at home with a blanket and slippers, which is perfect because this week we're talking about housing. Home sweet home, but in a forward-looking, even slightly futuristic version.

The home we don't want

For just over two years now, Montpellier has been the scene of a unique and singular experiment: testing the connected home of the future to learn how to better protect ourselves and, above all, how to better protect the famous data we generate in our now connected daily lives. Each year, two students are selected to live free of charge in this ultra-connected apartment-observatory, allowing a multidisciplinary consortium to use all the data collected for research purposes. Far from being a technological experiment, this project, called Human at Home (HUT), is a human challenge. We explain everything with the new HUT coordinator, Anne-Sophie Cases, who is also a professor atthe IAE in Montpellier and a specialist in digital marketing.

In the second part of the program, climb into our DeLorean and take a leap into the past with our colleagues from the world of culture and scientific heritage. Audrey Théron introduces us to the Patstec collection, whose mission is to preserve contemporary scientific and technical heritage. Computers from the 1980s, scales of all kinds, unusual and valuable educational instruments, old engines, typewriters, cameras, and much more... Surprises and wonder guaranteed.

Science is fun, you've got the ticket, let's go!
