About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Never be settled anywhere. Try to care more about people than things. Travel

ABOUT ME

I'm archaeo-anthropologist, to sum up I'm digging human bones, which are threatened by works like railways...
I work mainly in France, often on the road during the weeks, try to be at home for weekends.

PHILOSOPHY

A useless life is an early death (Goethe).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music above all ! I can't spend one day without it. Listening a lot of things, from classical to punk, reggae to electro (but not rap or makina, sorry for those who like it!). Among my favorite: Archive, Mogwai, Nirvana, Asian Dub Foundation, Schubert, Mano Solo, Clint Mansell, Justice, Bjork, Godspeed you black emperor!, Bloc Party, Dat Politics, High Tone, Les amis d'ta femme, Joy Division, Daft Punk, Interpol, Depeche Mode, She wants revenge, Tetes raides, The Cure, Sigur Ros, Portishead, Didier Super, Noir Désir, DJ Shadow, Pink Floyd, Explosions in the Sky, Buckley, Vitalic, Smashing Pumpkins, Massive Attack, Hendrix, Cash, Funkstorung, Girls in Hawai, La rue Kétanou, and of course radiohead (i forgot something for sure...)
I'm really interested in movies too, especially those from Tarantino, Jeunet, Fincher, Lynch, Sofia Coppola, Aronofsky, and so much more
For books at the moment it's nearly only comics, and the best is calvin and hobbes, but some people have already understand with my pseudo!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunrise on Mt Sinai (not the one near Reims, the one in Egypt), after i broke my ankle and had to climb up on a camel !

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess i can teach some things about archaeology, egyptology and art, but i think i would be a very bad teacher (i already try once) I really like to share music experience, discover new groups, new styles, and it's a daily work !
And don't count on me to teach you all the subtleties of french grammar...
