Je suis un geek en Belgique. J'écris des histoires SFFF, je tiens un blog, je développe des outils autour de la littérature. J'adapte aussi des œuvres en audio. Je suis malvoyant sévère et j'essaie de rendre les choses plus accessibles par de l'impression 3D, et autres. À mes heures perdues, je joue au go, à des jeux de rôle et des jeux vidéos. J'écoute des livres, ainsi que des films et des séries audio-décrits. Vous trouverez un peu de tout ça ici, en français et en anglais.

I'm a geek living in Belgium. I write some sci-fi and fantasy stories, I have a blog and I develop some tools for literature. I adapt some works into audio. I'm legally blind and I try to create accessibility with 3D printing and others. In my spare time, I play go game, sport (kickboxing), RPG and video games. I listen books and audio-descripted movies and series. You'll find all of that here, in English and in French. I'm learning Dutch and Japanese too.

So proud to learn the speech of Helen Keller in 1925 for an audition. This is an historic piece for all blind people. Helen Keller did so much for us !

#NowReading "Fables et Légendes japonaises" is a really good book. Its title can be translated as "Japanese fables and legends" but I didn't find it in English. It contains ten short versions of traditional fables from Japan. It can be read by a lot with a really fluent writing. If you read french, I recommend !

I've started my dramaturgical arts lessons, and I need to choose a fable in french. But I have no idea for now…

Some decisions have been taken. I'll continue to write and maintain my blog, but limiting to 3 hours a week for next year. Priority is on the accessible writing and management software, this is the long-term fix for legal issues. While I don't have all requirements, I'll be supervised by an enabled person (credited as co-author). If it's not sufficient for copyright collectives, I'll remove my name on my works. So, as legal is resolved, I come back here :)

Current issue I want to solve in my next project: I want to be a DM for some next #RPG sessions. But, with low vision, it's a bit tricky. So, I'm thinking of braille and 3D printed materials to make it possible.

Last day of rest. Tomorrow, I resume my volunteering projects.

I don't have resin 3D printer, and I'm thinking to fix it during next months. A filament-based printer can't have enough precision for braille and other adaptations. But, I'm a bit afraid about toxicity and all the stuff to do (cleaning and more) with low vision.

And back to projects. Today, I try to prepare a file for voice acting (an adaptation for blind people).

Bad idea of the day: 3D printing near my computer. I can't use my fan, the printer heats during an heating wave. I'm melting…

I'm late on all my projects. I'm back here after few weeks. Burn-out has come… I hope resume some activities before the end of the month, but I'm not sure.

Bon anniversaire @davidrevoy !

Et voilà, j'ai assisté à la finale belge de MT180 (Ma Thèse en 180s). C'était vraiment très intéressant et les participantes et le participant étaient bons ! J'ai été heureux de voir autant de monde intéressé par un événement sur la science.

Today, I show the final of Belgian MT180 (my thesis in 180 seconds). That was really interesting with very good participants. And really happy to see a lot of people during an event about science!

Happy towel day! And thanks for all the fish!

[EN] And now, not the final result because I need to #3DPrint a 19x19 one and note a 2x2 one. I can't wait to play go game with it! If you want all files (sorry I have to comment the code): https://procrastinator.nerv-project.eu/kujiu/goban/src/branch/main/with_marbles

[FR] Et maintenant, pas encore le résultat final mais presque, parce que je dois imprimer la version 19x19 et pas 2x2. J'ai si hâte de jouer au go avec ça ! Et si vous voulez les fichiers : https://procrastinator.nerv-project.eu/kujiu/goban/src/branch/main/with_marbles

[FR] Et il est temps d'imprimer en 3D un goban 2x2 ! Quoi ? Je l'ai déjà dit ? Des preuves ?

Sérieusement, concevoir un jeu accessible n'est pas si facile. Je tente d'utiliser des billes pour une couleur et des pierres de go pour la prochaine version. Toutes les pierres doivent être inamovibles car les personnes aveugles ont besoin de toucher sans bouger quoi que ce soit. Mais au final, dans tous mes tests du jour, il est difficile de retirer les pierres capturées. #3DPrint #GoGame #a11y
