LUMEN — A human-centered AI concept dedicated to cultural understanding, education, and peace.
This website presents my vision of AI: clearer, more human, more educational, and more respectful of cultural differences.
LUMEN is not just a tool idea. It is a long-term concept for helping people understand each other better.
Dedicated to the OpenAI team.
If you're interested in understanding the bigger picture of AI and how it works...
If you want to avoid the divergent opinions widely spread on social media...
If you have questions, feel free to ask here whenever you want...
Just let me put into words exactly what's on my mind!
Before becoming strong like an oak, you first have to be as dumb as an acorn. (EN)

Sources to learn Python :
- First, watch Monty Python until absurdity becomes a method.
- Then read Shakespeare , because code is also a kind of poetry.
- Finally: learn the basics, break things, fix them, and build your own apps.
I wanted to write a Python joke.
Three days later, I was debugging subtitles for a music video.
This bug became a feature.
This is why developers should never start side projects.
Every Python developer knows this one:
import this
displays The Zen of Python:
one of the most famous Easter eggs in programming.
Beautiful is better than ugly.
PEP Groove:
- Listen to "Python will survive." (disco joke)
- Listen to "Heavy Code." (metal joke)
- Python music playlist (Developers YouTube Channel songs)

Skills Summary
Background
My path is not linear. I started with photography and music, developing a strong sense of perception, timing and detail.
Later, I moved into web development and technical environments, learning through practice and real-world experience.
Over time, I became increasingly interested in systems, tools and human-centered design.
Today, I focus on Python and AI, building meaningful tools and exploring new ways to connect technology and human understanding.
PHOTOGRAPHY DEGREE – Promotion 1992
1992
Fell asleep more often than not in class (warm room, guilty teacher).
Still graduated with distinction.
Yes, even while half asleep.
Professional photographer with official access to the title, back when autofocus was more of a suggestion than a solution. I trusted hyperfocal distance instead.
MASTERING SURVIVAL – Ongoing
2007
Not your usual degree.
I’ve learned more survival skills in real life than in any classroom.
Bonus course: How to spot real humans (and avoid the rest).

UI/UX DESIGNER
Present day:
« C’est plus plus ou C++ »
(en français dans le texte)
Now (while loop here)
I make things simple.
So simple that users click without even thinking.
Some say it’s magic. I say: caffeine + empathy.
I could also be your Scrum Master — less ritual, more humanity. Product-minded, UX-driven, and allergic to useless complexity.
Just contact me to know the whole storyboard!
