Window-Glitched Clouds and Montreal Architecture
Whenever I walk in downtown Montreal, I keep looking up at the skyscrapers and the reflections of clouds. I especially enjoy how the windows seem to transform them into glitched clouds. Each glass pane sits under a slightly different tension and pressure. This makes each one bow a fraction differently and act as its own…

Scanning Skies for Clouds
I am returning to a small project I set aside last year: a script that scans the sky for clouds and traces their contours. The work is far from finished, and the difficulties are instructive. Dark clouds and clouds sitting in shadow absorb so much of the blue spectrum that they become hard to separate…
New Hatching Patterns
Another approach to dividing the skies with geometry. This time, the hatching itself is holding up reasonably well; the patterns read cleanly, and the logic feels closer to right, but the overall composition still needs refinement before it settles. Une autre approche pour découper les ciels à l’aide de la géométrie. Cette fois, le hachurage…

Recap Bitcoin 2026 Las Vegas
Bitcoin 2026 Las Vegas has wrapped up, and it was once again a conference worth the trip. I was pleased to showcase Do Not Accumulate, a new Ordinal project exploring the design, implications, and quiet coercions of Central Bank Digital Currencies. The work generated exactly the kind of dialogue I had hoped for, specific, informed,…
Cloud Fragments Recomposed
Here is a small preview from a generative script that recomposes my cloud images. The process breaks the photograph into pieces and reassembles them through algorithmic steps, much like how an encryption algorithm transforms data into a different form. Voici un aperçu d’un script génératif qui recompose mes images de nuages. Le processus découpe la…

Tropical Storm Clouds
With the heat easing below 30°C again this week, I’ve been looking back at last summer’s trips and those tropical storm clouds. Cloud formations like these definitely make you forget what they bring with them. Avec la chaleur qui redescend sous 30 °C cette semaine, je me suis replongé dans les voyages de l’été dernier…
Kicking Off Flight Season 2026
I hope you’ve had a good start to the year. There’s a noticeable wind of change in the air, and it’s been a refreshing source of energy. It feels like the right moment to begin the 2026 flight season. What are you most looking forward to in 2026? J’espère que ton année a bien commencé.…
On Square Pegs and Round Holes
The holiday season and the end of the year are always good moments to pause and reflect, allowing patterns to surface across longer timelines. Over the past months, I’ve been thinking and writing extensively about contextualizing crypto art, with a particular focus on the role of art-world misfits in its early years, those who operated…
Clouds over the Bahamas
As the year winds down, I return to the clouds and itineraries that stayed with me. I’ve never visited the Bahamas, yet I’ve crossed their airspace several times and photographed cloud structures like this one. This work is an experiment in expanding those formations in a generative way. À l’approche de la fin de l’année,…
Morning Cloud(s)
Nine years into working with clouds, and the pattern recognition is getting out of hand. Even my bread has joined the project. Neuf ans à travailler avec des nuages et la reconnaissance des formes commencent à déraper. Même mon pain s’est mis au projet.

Touching Grass
Touching grass in the Black Forest. I timed it perfectly because I left Montreal on the first snow day of the year. No better place to think than the woods where I grew up. Toucher terre dans la Forêt-Noire. Timing parfait : j’ai quitté Montréal le jour de la première neige de l’année. Il n’y…

A Desert Note
I wrote a stack of postcards in the Marfa desert and mailed them at the Marfa, TX Post Office so they’d carry that place with them. Location and time are core to my practice as the work lives in where and when it’s made. The Marfa postmark turned each card into a small artifact: a…
Back from Collecting Clouds
After a short hiatus, I’m returning with fresh energy. I’ve had time to recharge and to collect many cloud photos and videos that I’ll share soon. With Marfa, TX on the horizon next weekend, expect a series of updates in the coming days, including some special surprises for Noctilucent Mementi holders. Après une courte pause,…
New Digital Cloud Collage CW37
The photo for this sunset cloud collage was captured on the ferry between Quebec City’s Old Port and Lévis. There’s something timeless about sunlight breaking through clouds in radiant streaks. La photo de ce collage nuageux au coucher du soleil a été prise sur le traversier reliant le Vieux-Port de Québec à Lévis. Il y…
Cloud Surveillance
Recently, I’ve been reflecting on cloud surveillance, especially the role of data clouds. My practice often explores the ambiguity between clouds, data, and blockchain, and I find myself drawn to how relentless the collection and monetization of information has become, ranging from copying crypto wallets’ “investment” strategies to triangulating data points that expose real-world identities…
New Digital Cloud Collage CW35
I put together a new photo collage using Python-processed cloudscapes I often use in pen plotting. I like the direction and want to test lighter inks next to layer on top of dark-pen lines with the plotter. Do you also see a face? Update September 9th, 2025:Minted as an edition of 30 on OBJKT.

Texas-bound Aerial Clouds
A few weeks ago, I flew to Texas through some truly breathtaking cloudscapes. It also happened to be my 50th flight this year. Flying through storms isn’t for everyone, but I might be one of the few who genuinely enjoy it, because that’s when the clouds are at their most spectacular.
Geometric Pattern Collage
I just got back from Texas with dozens of photos and videos. The clouds heading into Dallas rarely disappoint. With all this new footage, I’ve started experimenting with simple geometric patterns and shapes. Collaging clouds has become one of my favourite ways to slow down and play with the material. Update September 8th, 2025:Minted as…
Throwback WOW Gala Lisbon
Throwback to a fun evening during the World of Women (WoW) Gala at the Palácio do Grilo in Lisbon earlier this year. The palace’s decoration was truly special—but I still got stuck on these lamps for obvious reasons. Quentin caught me mid-awe, mesmerized by the palace’s cloud enhancements.
New Geometric Cloud Collage
I am sharing my newest geometric cloud collage, made from a digitally drawn cloud and photos captured during a walk earlier last week. I created the collage in my hotel room in Toronto during one of those pauses between flights. Two takeoffs last week, four more this week. Update September 5th, 2025:Minted as an edition…

Nephology Studies
Last year, I explored some of my cloud photography and created a small series of Nephology pieces. For those not entirely lost in the clouds, nephology is the study or contemplation of clouds. Many of these studies were offered for free on ZeroOne, where users could mint them as NFTs at no cost. This particular…
2024 Year-End Thoughts
As the year comes to a close, I’m wrapping up 2024 with a spectacular 103rd flight of the year today. The hundreds of photos and videos captured during these journeys will serve as “raw material” for a new series launching next year. Stay tuned!
Algorithmic Collaging
After a few hectic weeks and the recently concluded Miami Digital Art Fair, the pace has finally started to slow down as the year comes to a close. This pause offers the perfect opportunity to dive back into my algorithmic collaging and continue exploring.
Generative Collaging Continued
How experimental is your creative coding process? I often find that manually going through certain steps helps me better understand the effects I want to achieve through code. This might involve experimenting with mockups, identifying which digital manipulations get closer to the desired results, and then iterating from there.
Generative Collaging
Returning to collage-making, but with a new approach: I’m currently exploring the use of code to create seed-based collages from images. My goal is to fragment and reposition parts of an image in a way that allows me to reconstruct the collage later and potentially apply the process to videos. Early tests have been quite…
Studio View Cloud Collage
Since moving to the new studio, I’ve taken photos and videos daily. After experimenting with sketches last week, I’ve found myself enjoying digital collaging again. Here’s a collage of some recent views from the studio.
Connecting Cloud Collage
Variety is the spice of life! To clear my head, I’ve been experimenting with recent generative outputs, connecting clouds and revisiting collage work; it’s been a while! You can peek into my attempts to distract myself and return to long-term projects with a refreshed mind in my visual studio notes. How do you break up…

Cloud Timelapse from the Art Studio
I’ve been absolutely captivated by the sky ever since moving into my new studio. Watching the clouds drift by has become a daily ritual, and I love capturing these moments. In this video, you can see something special, the background and foreground clouds moving in opposite directions, creating a mesmerizing effect.
Transit in Toronto (YYZ)
Today, I’m back from Texas, and Toronto is welcoming me with a rainy fall vibe. Now, I’m heading off to Montreal, hoping to catch some beautiful rain clouds along the way.
