In France, from 1992 to 1996, I have written reviews, articles and have took live concert photos during the whole adventure
of the industrial fanzine SYMPOSIUM. I
have collaborated with some others french fanzines like OMEGA as well.
At the same time, I have also managed the micro tape label EXPREL.

In 1997, I begin to work as a free-lance sound engineer in the audiovisual field in Paris and stopped an active involvement
in the scene. I only come back in the industrial sphere in 2003, making the mastering of the last albums of my old comrade
47 ASHES, who also created the Gods &
Beasts logo.

In 2005, I co-produced the first THERAPIE AUDITIVE festival and I continued to be involved in the others, mostly in filming and managing the video projections for the bands. I also did, and still do, the same kind of work for other french live concerts organizers : CYNFEIRDD, STEELWORK MASCHINE, LES SONS PARANORMAUX,  AU DELA DU SILENCE and L'ATELIER DE CREATION EXPERIMENTALE.

Still in 2005, I supervised the postproduction of the musical dvd RVB-TRANSFERT. Co-produced with INFRASTITION and OPTICAL SOUND, this dvd is a huge video-clip sampler of the french independant scene of the eighties. It gathered for the first time lots of archives unseen or rare, between post-punk, cold-wave, avant-garde pop, industrial and experimental music.

I also wrote a dozen of biographies of industrial and experimental french bands for the book CARNETS NOIRS and have written for the webzine OBSKÜRE until 2007. In 2006, I have reloaded my own experimental musical project named VINCI.

Since then, I am helping Eric Duboys on the issues of his industrial music saga, mostly with english translations and photographies rights search. Since then, I'm more or less uploading archives through various online medium...
