Different writings on technology, design and their political, social and ecological dimensions, based on my practice.
The PhD conduccted at SACRe program, PSL University Paris, and EnsadLab, give birth to a PhD thesis entitled "Manufactures Technophaniques". It tries to re-evaluate the Simondonian concept of Technophany, suggested in the 60s, in regards to the different machines and experiments conducted during the PhD.
During my different research positions, I wrote several scientific articles to relate my parctice to different concepts - and to explore the different political, social, anthropological, implications of developing new technologies.
In parallel, I co-founded a small collective of design researchers, writers and graphic designers, called Les Presses Pondérées, in Paris. This collective edited a publication called Obliquite, but also worked on different publications, events and exhibitions.
