I'm an engineer by title, scientist by function and vocation (master in High Energy Physics). I currently do research in Artificial Intelligence.

I am an enthusiast Free Software user, a non-professional paramedic, a musician, and like to draw (though I am colour-blind). A World citizen, I try to support I/O in English, German, French, Latin, Greek and Japanese, with random success.

I admire Werner Heisenberg, Niels Bohr, Paul Dirac, Wolfgang Pauli and Hendrik Casimir, Yukawa Hideki; Captain Cook , Yuri Gagarin and Werner von Braun ; Alan Turing, Bertrand Russell ; Toyotomi Hideyoshi. And lots of others, of course.

I have nothing in common with Rama, Ramallah, User:Rama's Arrow, Rama Yade or Rama.

I have been a sysop on en: from the 5th of May 2005, on commons: from the 29th of August 2005, and on fr: from the 24th of February 2006.
