quotation mark 1There is no such thing as an attention span... There is only the quality of what you are viewing. People have infinite attention if you are entertaining them.quotation mark 2

~ Jerry Seinfeld

 I listen, I forget. I see, I recall. I do, I understand...

 In addition to my editorial activities, I often co-organize exhibitions of my own work. I also conduct and hold brain training workshops and activities for cultural or scientific events.


 My workshops and exhibitions are directed towards

• Museums
• Public institutions and organizations
• Communication/Advertising Agencies
Congresses, Meetings
• Festivals, fairs, scientific or cultural events.

 


 The most requested workshops and activities
I. MatheMagics
origami craneFrom a recreational angle, mathematics can lead us to the discovery of weird paradoxes challenging our common sense. Each student/visitor who attends this workshop will experiment and realize his own ‘magic’ math puzzle with everyday materials and explore different branches of mathematics. My main object is to sharpen the eyes of the young and adult participants to the unexpected surprises that even the simplest things can reveal.
II. Eyes vs Mind
impossible diceUnder my own guidance each person taking part in this workshop will be involved in particular situations where the eyes and the mind deceive us. Everyone will discover original optical illusions, realize a perceptive puzzle and discover some incredible paradoxes of the mind and of our visual system... It is certainly fun to be astonished by an illusion, but it is even more fun and instructive to imagine how it could actually be possible!

 In a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, with original games from my invention or with everyday objects, I have entertained thousands of people at conventions and festivals... My great asset is to know how to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary. If you are interested by my workshops or exhibitions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
