Passionate about knowledge, science, culture and of course knowledge transfer. I like to popularize and communicate scientific concepts, knowledge or theories. Being multidisciplinary, I am a jack-of-all-trades in science popularization, even if I have more facility with environmental sciences, ecology and more specifically climate disruption, my academic and professional specialty (M.Sc in environmental sciences, UQAM, 2018).
I am also involved in the convivial degrowth movement in Montreal and enjoy reading Illich, Gorz, Roszak, Ellul, but also more contemporary writings such as those of Serge Latouche, Yves-Marie Abraham, Agnès Sinaï, Mathilde Szuba, Louis Marion or even Giorgos Kallis. I recognize myself in the valorization of the commons.
Finally, hiking and photography are two passions that I often combine (see my Flickr portfolio here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/130159606@N03/). I'm particularly interested in film photography using cameras from the 60s, 70s and 80s. My favorite cameras : Olympus OM-1, Olympus OM-2 SP, Zorki 6 (1963), Yashica Mat 124 G, Canon New F-1 (1981), Canon A-1 (1980), Edixa Mat Reflex D, Minolta X700.
