Computer Museum

One of the first digital camera to be sold in retail.


The first "RSS reader" as Philippe Nieuwbourg, the head of the museum puts it. In fact a sort of telex that was used on military boats to receive instructions broadcasted from land.


The first "Laptop" computer (Osborne 1 - 24.5 pounds!)


Sinclair ZX81. I remember it as the first popular computer in Europe. Sinclair was British.


What a teenager room would have looked like in the 80's. The modem is worth the visit!


One of the first hard drives.

Photo shoot from La Défense Tower

This is were I was when I took all these photos for the Tribu Cancer association. It's the top (that is about 40 stories above ground) of the EDF (the French electricity company) tower. It was a stunning experience, I must say. Before you ask, the reason why I was wearing a mask is that they have air conditioning equipment (exhaust fans) up there and they don't want to take any risk regarding legionnaire's disease.

PDP Picnic 2008 Interviews

Full length (39 minutes)





(5 first minutes only - as posted on May 9)



I'm sorry I don't know what went wrong but the video is only 4 minute long (whereas it should be 40 minute long). Don't ask me why, I have no idea and... no time to work it out as my taxi is coming to pick me up in one hour! You are going to have to wait until my return I'm afraid. So sorry!
