Best : 2003-2007

best-1.jpg

In 2003 when I was still living in London, I went to Muji and bought a clear B5 plastic photo holder and started filling it with what I considered representative of the best moments from my life: maps, tickets, cards, photos, bills, handwritten notes/letters from people, newspaper articles, boarding passes…

The book is not yet full (my laziness shows inconsistencies in the process), but it has accumulated. The result is graphic and abstract but personally filled with memories and experiences passed. Every piece in the album helps me recall a strong moment from my life. 4 years on and still recording.

Although the London Design Festival personally ended up being a sore throat and runny nose festival (see pic) it was still nice to browse around the stalls and spot new creations. The overwhelming level of content makes it sometimes hard to digest - nothing really sticks out - but it is the creative atmosphere/energy that makes the experience all worth it (without forgetting the free Diana+ camera from the lomography world congress).

Totally cheesy cover… but Prince did great at the 02 Arena and he gave out free CD’s (since he’s decided not to sell them anymore).

Finally back in Paris after a journey to the other side of the world. My bag was filled up with paper - business cards, boarding passes, bus tickets, maps… and other recollections of places seen and experienced.
