Activities
Things I do that aren't strictly mathematics — though most of them keep circling back to it.
Perpimaths
A free extrascolaire math circle for kids in Perpignan. Association loi 1901, filed March 2026. No fees, ever. Weekend workshops built around problem-solving, logic games, puzzles, and the kind of math that rewards intuition over memorisation — the stuff I wish I'd had access to at 14. Peer tutoring, short stages during school holidays, outdoor math days. Anyone can join; curiosity is the only requirement.
We've raised €2,000 to cover our first year of workshops. For the next step — sending students to regional and national competitions, building a small library of textbooks, hosting guest lecturers — we're looking for sponsors. If your company, foundation, or local institution supports youth education, please get in touch.
Writing
I write on Substack when I have something to say that isn't a theorem — literature, Greek mythology, the occasional political thought. Mostly English.
- Leaving the First State — on family, rebellion, and the first act of political emancipation, read through Rimbaud's story.
Reading & listening
I read a lot of literature and Greek mythology, and I write about both when something catches. Music — mostly Górecki's third, Bach partitas, and a slow rotation of Radiohead.
Press
Oise Hebdo, 13 April 2026 — "Du Clos-des-Roses à l'université de Stanford", on growing up in the Clos-des-Roses and being admitted to Stanford SUMaC.
