En 1992, Zurich fermait le parc Platzspitz, devenu, à l’ombre du Musée national suisse, le haut-lieu crasseux de la déchéance, de la violence et de l’overdose.
At certain times of the year, homo touristicus has a tendency, despite his good ecological resolutions, to fly off to seek the sun elsewhere. This astonishing biped sometimes seeks solitude, but more often finds itself in tightly packed flocks wading in the water of its favorite pond. Just like the phoenicopterus roseus, a partial migrant better known as the pink flamingo. Images taken at the Parc ornithologique du Pont de Gau, Camargue.

Brick: a building material made of clay, in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, says the dictionary. Which forgets the function of blotting paper, as the walls become impregnated with lettering from another time, telling the story of the city before. Examples from across the Atlantic and antichronologically from Denver, Colorado, to Flagstaff, Arizona.
Neige en couleurs, ou plus précisément, neige et couleurs, lesquelles éclatent d’autant plus quand le «blanc manteau», comme dit la chanson, tente de les recouvrir. Promenade non pas sur le Kilimandjaro, mais en ville de Neuchâtel.
La musique symphonique est un flot vaste, tempétueux. Et si l’on remontait à sa source, au centre de son jaillissement, juste à côté des musiciennes, des musiciens, des choristes? Immersion au cœur de l’Ensemble symphonique neuchâtelois (ESN) et du Chœur Cantabile.
French photographer and videographer Alexandre Sattler has been banned from the social network, which considered some of his photos to be «pedocriminal». Here, he recounts his misadventure and denounces GAFA's use of artificial intelligence.
