AI?

Yes, I use AI… but never for my articles, nor for my books. Maybe that will change in the future, but I will let you know, and it has never happened until now, and I have no desire to do so.

A debate about AI? It’s a deadly abyss and a hypnotic power. Given my background, the evolution of my thinking, my situation, being at the heart of software development, being what I consider myself to be: very well-equipped for organizational and product thinking, I choose to use AI to go even further. And this while not being ignorant of the strong cognitive dissonances with other of my ideals. I live with these demons. I leave you yours, that’s not the subject here.

So once again: to go further in my profession, for example the documents around Peetic, but not for my articles or my books.

About me

After a master’s degree on the Monty Python, a DEA on nonsense and the absurd, the beginning of a PhD on cinematic comedians, it seems normal that I launched into management and change management, it is -ultimately- a logical continuation. For fifteen years, I have been considered an experienced player in organizational development (holacracy, sociocracy, agile, lean, kanban). I am above all an entrepreneur. In 2010, after consulting in IT, I became a leader by founding with two friends the consulting company Smartview. Then I joined Benext as partner/CEO in 2015. Benext was sold to Accenture/Octo in 2021. I participated in its integration for a while then I regained my freedom.

The crypt

Welcome to my little crypt. I store here old things that have no connection to the blog except that I made them. They are also not related to agility, although…

Zepablo’s Led Zeppelin

Site maintained from 1997 to 2003 about Led Zeppelin. The first French site about Led Zeppelin.

1994: DEA “the forms and mutations of the absurd and nonsense in cinematic burlesque”

A DEA (Diplôme d’Études Approfondies) in Film History (communication & audiovisual) dated 1994. Hey, show some restraint, I was only 23… The illustrations are also missing (the pages I found no longer had them), I’ll take care of finding them (one day…).

1993: Master’s thesis: “Comedy in Monty Python”

I found in 2025 in an old folder a copy of my master’s thesis (most of the illustrations are missing, but in 10 years to come I should be able to add them, since I have the sources). I was 22, a master’s thesis that nourished who I became.

Appendices:

1989 baccalaureate 1989 Arts & Philosophy with cinema & audiovisual option: “Work on Star Wars”

It’s very naive, but I don’t deny anything.
