THE MAN WHO WANTED TO CLASSIFY THE WORLD

Paul Otlet, a Belgian Utopian little known in America. Otlet invented an international classification scheme called Universal Decimal Classification used for books, photographs and other documents. He invented microfilm. He invented the ubiquitous index card catalog used in most libraries. But as he says in the film, "I think in terms of the universal" and his ambitions were much larger. Otlet began organizing existing international organizations into one grand inter-organization -- the Union of International Organizations -- which inspired the League of Nations. His one failure was to build an ultimate World City in Europe, but it was not for a lack of trying.

But his most amazing invention (in retrospect) was his invention of hypertext, multi-media, and the web. He didn't use these words of course. He called it the International Network for Universal Documentation.

ELECTRONIC LIVE Performance since 97 (source Soundcloud)
Singer since 1990 in various groups ranging from alternative rock to Jimmy Hendrick and the Red Hot Cure or see Pink Floyd, I discovered electronic music in 95.

I begin by mixing Techno, Trance and scratches included in the compositions of my last group of rock fusion style "Sly Circus". It follows the discovery of Spiral Tribe and the evolution of my widening mix of Trip Hop to Drum and Bass, Hardcore and the desire to create my own compositions.

With the purchase of a Roland MC 303 and after three months of concentrated effort to manipulate loops on this little box, I live in begins 98. I insert loops into the compositions of the group while starting to play live in the evenings.

The group splitter in 2002, and I keep my songs and lives strongly influenced by the sounds Tribe, Break Beat, Drum and Bass, Hip-hop show.

In 2004, I appeared on a live cd (Family Production, Prod ES) and 2005 on my first vinyl young label "Statik Travel" through the meeting Barouf aka Wise Children.

In late 2005, thanks to former local knowledge, I co-founded the association 4Kicks Production and sign on the first and second opus label Mutation Android. In late 2008, according to new horizons and following the arrival of my son's love, I find myself again solo.

2009, I co-produced with the leitmotif Sound System Azimuth Records first signing in 2 pieces.

Again, I share the feeling of the research group and agree on many proposals for combining musical collaboration turns Mc, percussion, guitar, bass and live performer and dj

GOOD TIMES 1992
Very cool read about the magical year 1992, when free raves where at their peak, written by Tim Knight.
 --
"So 1992 was a good year then. Well, for me, and for a few thousand hedonistic others, 
it will never be beaten."

"In Mexico the car is a “sacred being” as formerly were some animals and plants; the difference is obvious. Today, in Mexico, there is a kind of paranoid obsession with the production, sale and purchase of one of these things with four wheels, giving the car the same attributes as a pet and let’s say even survive humans. The car has the preference, with respect to pedestrians, but goes beyond that … in many cases serves to create disputes and differences of social rank."

Basically i was inspired by the city, where everyone is thinking about money, business and fame, without any respect towards people and relationships.."
