October 2026

Hello from Paris.

Much of September was spent working on Source Primaire, a project I have been developing with Émilie Girault. We have teamed up to bring together her experience in collection management, research, and publishing with my work in design, photography, and art direction.

We work with artists, collectors, families, and institutions to help them understand, organise, and share their collections. These can include artworks, photographs, letters, family archives, and objects with a personal history. We identify and photograph the items, research their background, and organise the information so it can be used and passed on.

Émilie leads the research, documentation, and editorial work. My side involves photography, visual identity, graphic design, archiving and websites. Together, we develop books, catalogues, and digital projects suited to each collection. Sometimes the aim is to make an archive easier to consult. Other times, it is to tell its story through a publication or make it available to a wider audience.

Source Primaire gives us a way to work together while drawing on what we each know best.

I have been spending time on the website and on how we present our work. There is still plenty to do, but I am happy to share this part of our lives here: source-primaire.fr. All the images in there are photographs taken by us, assembling relevant items in a collage sort of way.

We are also developing our own software for Source Primaire. This alone is hard but exciting work. I might write about that later.

Alongside this, I have also been developing an iPhone app with my little knowledge of coding and the help of the mighty Codex. It has involved a lot of learning and experimenting. I am keeping the details to myself for now, but I will share more when it is ready.

My new album will be out January 22nd. I just received the masters today and after listening thoroughly to the tracks, I can say it’s sounding great.
Can’t wait to put it out.

Everything is exciting now. It’s been this way since I left my 9 to 5 job back in March. Never again, I hope.

Working at my own rhythm made me 100 times more productive, more curious, trying new things and experimenting in many fields.

Bref.

Georges.
