ABOUT ME

I spend a big part of my time looking aroud and finding beauty everywhere. I'm part of the animals, but gifted with language, so I can listen when you talk, and tell infinite stories.
I listen rare musics, allways curious of something new, I like to caress things as living things. I'm always building machines, in mind or for real. Movement is the greatest invention of Nature.

PHILOSOPHY

touch everything, you are alive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach anyone who wants to: the french names of birds, riding unicycle, using most of current tools, throwing axe, building a house in a tree, playing pigs, find the animal by the form of its foot on the ground.
I would like to learn all the music instruments , all the stupid sports like curling, BMX and freefall, magic tricks, body sounds, hair cutting, cooking, your language.
