Because every makers/creators/artists have their own universe, it is obvious that, at a particular point of their lives, they want to make the big equation of everything in order to describe it.
Indeed, we (artists), are strange people.
We want to show you everything of us, sometimes nothing, oscillations being a huge part of our work, if we can consider we are working, because I’d prefer to write we are living, instead working.. our life being our work or vice versa.
Building an universe from nothing seems to be hard.
But there are already many parts we just have to stick, to agglomerate, to join.
In my case, I’m just multiple which doesn’t mean mentally ill!
The multiple parts of myself – working together
Art takes its sense with the word technic.
Indeed, even if some doesn’t agree with that, we know art is also relatic to skill.
Britannica Online says Art is “the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others.”
How to separate skill & imagination ?
Indeed, it seems hard, but education, societies, and globally jobs & bosses tend to make you using right & left parts of the brain absolutely not at the same time, which breaks absolutely our bunch of super-powers being inside of us.
My great friend Laurent (Boghossian) agrees 100% with that and it means a lot for me as he’s one of the most accurate to explain that kind of global human theory through his books about management, self-improvement.
Indeed, you have to notice that: each Continue reading »
Laurent interviewing me on his blog
Tweeter
Laurent Boghossian is a great friend and one of this guy who could build a world with 5 kg of sand only.
I already talked about him here, and I’m doing again today because he made and published an interview of me.
(if you cannot wait for reading my interview on his website, the link is .. a bit below 
)
I’m very moved by his words and he described very well how our both new lives have begun several months, years ago.
I’m inviting you to go there to read the interview entitled:
Design the media : Design your music like you’d like to design your life
I’m also inviting you to browse his blog 35nextyears.com
It is full of a lot of nice life design tips & tricks which can teach you a lot!
Zombies in real life are more fair !!
Tweeter
We always have to deal with zombies.
In real life, sometimes, after some strange contamination or satanic stuff, zombies appear.
We also have to deal with zombies that are not real one but who are working in an office they hate, and living in a life they hate too. I call them false-but-real-future-zombies.
In both case, we have to shoot them in the head:
- the first one for real ; aim precisely and push the button and you’ll be safe.
- the second one, by using our words to try (if we have time for that) to change them a bit, to make them happier
In the computer sciences field, zombies are strange and roaming specific processes defined like that by wikipedia:
On Unix and Unix-like computer operating systems, a zombie process or defunct process is a process that has completed execution but still has an entry in the process table. This entry is still needed to allow the parent process to read its child’s exit status. The term zombie process derives from the common definition of zombie — an undead person. In the term’s metaphor, the child process has “died” but has not yet been “reaped”. Also, unlike normal processes, the kill command has no effect on a zombie process.
Did you notice that TOTALLY UNFAIR thing at the end of the text ?
NO, you cannot shoot those processes in the head.
And it is totally unfair.
I hope one day, Linus Torvalds & UNIX Gurus would have a read to that and help us, and, while doing that, will help the world !
Don’t let him to name you a “shit” !

This is a post I wanted to write for a while.
It requires around 7 minutes and it comes with 3 important rules (at the end) I follow in order to keep my lifestyle.
What is that story ?
The action takes place in a restaurant, around 12:00, where I worked a long time ago (I mean, around 2001)
I was a network engineer junior in a big big big factory in south of France.
I just finished my studies at this time.
A colleague, one day, was a bit depressed, I guess. I mean, one of these days when you are a bit anger against everything, and probably, especially against yourself. He was around 50 years old, I was around 25.
We began to discuss, as usual.
At a particular moment, he began to say Continue reading »
From program development to life design
Tweeter
This article talks about how we can design our life and what it can be related to program design.
It is my own experiences, and some I saw for some close friends too.
This isn’t the guide I could write about “How to change your life & have fun by creating your path?” but just a kind of introduction to some concepts (at the end) amongst a lot of other sweet words
This is not my best photo, but it is just me.
I’m just a human, but I decide where I want to go.
How to summarize my 2011 ?
Tweeter
It is the day to write & post this article, today.
2011 was the real first year of my existence as Design the Media owner/founder/developer & Protofuse digital artist.
In another article, I’ll write more about me quiting my last job, but I quit it November 2010.
About Design the Media
I created, developed and made Design the Media company in order to support my technology activities here, there & inside the wired.
I have been contacted, targeted for a lot of projects, selecting the best to fit with my lifestyle, contracting, denying, accepting, deciding all over the year.
Certified by Ableton end of 2010, I gave Continue reading »
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012
Tweeter
I wish you the best year 2012 ever :p
Especially, I’d suggest you to follow your dreams, to do your best to live them instead of dreaming your life.
It is very important.
I’ll write more about this concept ; in fact, I’m writing about that everytime in my articles, as a subliminal message for you.
You guessed and heard it, I know that.
I wanted to show you my face closer today because of these very sincere wishes for you.
I’m just… what I am, no more, but absolutely no less too.
Use that crack in monotony
Tweeter
I want to thank you all for the nice “welcome to the world !!” yelled about my last software designed The Uncanny Sequencer
For those who missed a step, I just released a very special music sequencer named The Uncanny Sequencer. I invite you to read this post and that one (that one explains why I named it like that, and it mixes David Lynch, Uncanney Valley concept & more)
So, THANKS TO YOU.
It gives me a lot of power to understand you like my designs.
It brings me to continue my way into art & technology fields.
Today, I want to talk about something very important:
the little crack into monotony
This a coaching stuff, I guess.
I mean.. I’m using it everyday to live better and it works.
It would help you in your life, job, for sure.
