New Site, Book (and Music soon)
Noisy Lights concept book, front cover. (168 pages)
I have finished in March a first draft of the Art Book (part one) wich helped me to figure out what really works out in terms of story telling and design. Some main characters and key-concepts, (or pictures from the recording sessions) are there: the "SoundRunners", "SupraBikes", "Supra Cars","AirCosmopolitans" and "Characters". Last year my friend Kamil Rustam took some precious time to help me out to write down and synthesize the presentation of this project (for our Kickstarter campaign) and it has been very helpfull to use some of that to create this book . I sincerely thank him again for this ! Special thanks also to Ludovic Louis who took time with Kamil to pause for the book. It was great to collaborate with the great photographer Djeneba Aduayom (Kamil, Ludo and J.L's portraits at the Scott Hensel daylight Studio, thanks Scott again for the help). One of my main concern with that Noisy Lights project is maint to share that feeling of joy and connection we find thanks to music and artists. But also to tell an epic adventure connected to the complex world we live in and issues we are facing right now. I take time to figure out the best option for that book: self-publishing or not.
My familly and I had to go through some very tough events this year, and after all this, it took me time to go back to work and even feel concerned about all this again. But I'm currently composing and recording and I guess thoses beautifull musical collaboration brough me the tools and balance I needed to. Each moment of joy is precious and present time is always enough. Hope you will enjoy the new website i designed. Wish you all the best in life !
