it’s always hard to confess
quality
you know in the east in the
hired interviews or in the
castings for us comedians
inevitably we ask you this
question what are the defects and the
qualities that define you best
good then the defects there’s no
problem we always find
but qualities we always have a
modesty more or less feigned that we
prevents to announce the color is good
for me there was never a problem
that’s right first for the flaws 1
have validated the problem right away
I do not have one or I have too many and he
would need more than a tedx conference for
go around
but by cons of qualities I know that
I have one since always I am
curious about everything for everyone and especially
regards my environment
immediate
I can not help but ask myself
Questions
what is behind the name
of this metro station what is this
hides behind the name this street
what lies behind this
building that has been built that
lived there
why Paris was the capital of the
france why besides paris
is it called paris that’s all a
set of questions that I ask myself in
permanence that drives me because of
this curiosity to conduct investigations and
suddenly starting in the footsteps of
the roots of my everyday life
and this curiosity these surveys
it projects me into stories of
stories that can be anecdotal
but who can be as iconic
of my reality and my daily life
and here are all those stories that me
gives the sensation of lifting the veil on
all the shadows around me and
maybe understand a little better the
reality around me here I have the
sensation with this curiosity to live
in a more enlightened reality in a
augmented reality I feel like
to dominate 7
this reality around me to do
something less passive
2 – commonplace less informal less
anecdotal 2 – any for
opposite transform it my reality my
daily experiences on a trip
incredible to meet stories
wonderful and extraordinary
sublime characters who populated this
story to shape my reality the
reality
so this trip to the country tomorrow
augmented reality on the wings of my
curiosity that I want to share
with you because you know I have the
feel me to live like september
this kid in the movie with bruce
willis you know sixth sense that’s
leans towards him and who says to him I see
people who died ben me it’s
the same
around me I see people who are
dead I see things that have existed
who are no longer but they have face and
shaped my reality so
follow me in this experience of
augmented reality which I hope as
for me will allow you to savor a
little more than others
your daily life and thereby to feel
maybe a bit more out of step
so be careful, you’re going to have to be very
accurate because everything is really very
accurate everything started very exactly
Tuesday, October 27, 1983 at 8:30 pm on the
channel 3 of French television
I was watching a program presented by
a singer eddy mitchell
this show was called last
session we saw westerns of
epic peplums started with sauce
Hollywood who told us about Robin
ivanhoe vikings woods of
guillaume the conqueror of ben-hur des
ten commandments etc etc
I loved that I record and everything for
can the next day redo the scenario
with my soldiers in my room
or so in my bathroom when he
was to cross the sea
red to me with my super pleymo in
my washbasin
yes you know when we’re kids we have
always a super play a toy that
never dies and whoever gets the most
beautiful roles so there it is obviously
super world but the words that played the
role of modeuse Moses but when my
Mom explained to me that all these
stories that I loved watching TV
on TV were for the most part
of them even fantasies and
fictionalized from our history of
our humanity of our civilization
so I immersed myself in the manuals
10
wow i followed people like a teenager
as in historical novels I
follow-up victor hugo i followed alexander
dumas and there my reality exploded I
think it’s the most beautiful gift
this way of perceiving textbooks
of history as a way of
to feed my imagination and better
decrypt as well started to perceive the
reality around me it was the most
nice gift that they could have done there the
providence because from that moment the
world has changed for me really I’ve had
the feeling of going to search
from Treasure Island
without leaving the corner of my street
besides, as the first trip on
wings of my curiosity in the land of my
augmented reality that I could you
propose it would be to tell you my
moving to paris at 15 years old in my
street precisely which was called the street of
the white queen then the street of the
white queen
it’s a street without a street
any of the thirteenth arrondissement of
Paris
itself any borough
but my street was called rue de la
white queen
do you know why my street
was called the street of the white queen this
someone knows it
well because in the past at the end of
thirteenth century this street led to a
castle a castle that had been made
build the widow of saint louis
daisy of provence to finish there
days along the bièvre river
who ran in the thirteenth arrondissement
and it is also in this castle that his
white girl will finish her life early
from the 14th century you realize
my street rotten xiiie
borough that leads me to school
at work at taxes or at the
baker all of a sudden she drives me
in the middle ages she leads me to saint
louis at the time of the crusades of
knights of jerusalem of the person
cabbages of the formidable is
incredible it took a thick a
dimension not possible excuse me there I
very selfish dry I’m talking to you about my
personal experience but we could
talk to you a little bit
what lies behind the city
where we are tonight what is it
who hides behind the name of reims I
think someone is still
it’s a tribe the ereem a tribe
Gallic
so that’s it the race starts to
take relief you do not find one
starts to come alive there the droids the
forests of vercingetorix chains
Gallic no
made history it’s beautiful there
breeze in time but excuse me
but Gallic tribes like
reins under antiquity he has more than one
hundred there are tackles in Gaulish who
by the way spends the time to spend their
time to lend themselves to each other so that’s
not that original except that there is
another legendary story around the
name of reims a legend
the legend of romulus and rémus yes
ladies and gentlemen the Reims we are going
to speak of rome to reims of the city
eternal
the founders of Rome this great city
of which one is the heirs rome has been
founded by two brothers
according to the legend romulus and rémus after
his two twin brothers they ended up
frying so romulus killed or made
kill remus and his soldiers left in
exile were banished they saved themselves
have fought the camp and he would have created
reims do you figure so this is a
legend it’s a legend that date back to
high middle ages but romulus and rémus
it’s also a legend the reality by
two legends the legends are the
substrate our historical reality and
hit reims find themselves affiliates
directly to the empire
maybe that’s why after the fall
of the worsened western Roman 476 clovis
was baptized sacred to reims
that’s why through all
the history of france until jeanne
bow who will make them crowned charles
vii in reims why it’s dangerous
no it’s to reims because reims when
rum fell in 476 the Roman Empire
whose Merovingian Carolingians
wanted to be the heirs one the
continuators of rome
clovis as charlemagne wanted
emperor somewhere and that’s it
why did it happen to reims you
realize the thickness of reims
in one go there the density reims is a thousand
more important than paris in
medieval a thousand times more important
apart he’ll go into the story that
in pro 4th century with julia whistling
borrowing crown is another
history
let’s stay on reims and that name that
now is no longer a banal name
any artificial but that you
invite to a beautiful story a story
captivating probably legendary
mythical but founder of this
reality that will make the royals the
Kingdom of France and the Kings of France
will be sacred next door
but this little fun trip I hope
entertaining it must be taken as
such
well we do it for the names of
places paris reims rue darren white
but we could as well do it
for the names of things for words and
yes the words too it’s not
passive accidents without relief
they too have a story to you
tell as long as you see well
the ear words is the formula that
I like to use words are
monuments in our mouths every time
that you speak a lack ably you
was going to summon an ancestor assures you
we will take a small example of words
who will tell you a story of
words close to us the months of our
calendar january february march april
May June July August September I you
I said it’s hard north in October
November December
what do they mean these –
what is behind the word
January and well if we do not
the ear if we have a little bit curious
you will realize that
behind this succession of me who
parade throughout the year
and what is the history of our
civilization that is hugging you that is going
you are told
yes ladies and gentlemen I will you
proves January Latin word Roman god
very ancient god janus a double god
the god of doors and closures
opening closures that’s why
that we placed January janus at the beginning of
year
it is he who opens the year and it is him
who closes the old is a god
animist you know at the very beginning of
our humanity
when we did not have engineers yet
of technicians of scientists to explain
the world by the divine magical forces
there were gods everywhere there were
gods in the armchairs in the
cushions in the leaves of trees in
the sky whose interior was god
everywhere we understood nothing
it was gods here to help us
to understand nature the nature that
we crush the nature that is at
above us who plays with us from where
the second month februar the month
fevers frost the little man
all naked that early civilization
he’s shaking he ‘s scared and understands nothing to
nothing he gets crushed miss france this
link by a tsunami by a brief hurricane
this is the beginning lily is yet he is
not very strong but luckily happens
march march
still a Latin word again a god the
God of the war
watch out there we leave the state of nature
man wants to take control of his destiny
he goes to conquest well it’s still
by force could still in the state
of nature
so he goes with his club and he wants
domestic and the world but march is
more an animist god is already the god
of a state conquest assent a
character on advance
then arrives april april it’s
Aphrodite
then it’s still a god of an impulse
primary like war the force of the
man’s power will since
she is the goddess of sexuality
the reproductive instinct of
short conservation
really like Nietzsche would say the da
basis of deep characters that we
anime us human brothers who live
all together but a little
peculiarity is that aphrodite is
a Greek goddess
until now it was just words
Latin and well that also informs us
on the history of our civilization
80% of the words I use come from
the Greco-Latin civilization 80% for
the Latin 10% for the Greek the rest this
is only 10 % of the reality of words
we use we are from this
civilization there and that you see it
in the calendar
then comes another Latin word but
maya goddess of fertility and arrive
then junon goddess latin dead to
hands again but this time
goddess of marriage then there everything changes
I feel like seeing myself at 20 in
philo taking classes where our teachers
we said with jean jacques rousseau
in the social contract
when the man leaves the state of nature
to found a company
marriage is nothing else here
first social pact the man decided to
govern
the order of things to take charge
and take it in hand the governance of the
world he will start to suter her
to associate in society and leave this summer
states of nature that made him so
afraid and who previously explained that
by divine or supernatural forces where
the all-powerful nature in speaking
of men following our calendar is going
show how much he takes all the
place since July and August are
month dedicated to July jules emperors
August Caesar
august and yes this time here it is
the man gets rid of a little god
whatever Julius Caesar and Augustus was
also half gods had been
deified but it’s really the man who
take orders and we see it at the
continued september october november
December some Latin words there again
what do they mean 7 8 9 10
that’s it man resonates man ahead
place to the technique to science for
explain the world
we left leeds nature we left
the gods we left the forces at lima
land forces energy and
viva and how vital it is to
animated nature now it’s the man
who resonates is when it’s the man
who takes control but you are not
not married which is a bell
7 8 9 September 10th this yet I
believe it was the ninth month of
the year october 8 yet i believed
that it was the tenth month of the year
I am neither at October 27, November 9
yet this is the eleventh lan mode and
December
yet it is the twelfth month of
the year what is this bazaar
who has upset the mechanics
well that’s the man that’s julius caesar
it’s august that interposed
in our calendar we screwed up the
whorehouse
good at the same time you have to understand them
they were not going to choose November
February the guys they are put who are
choose beautiful summer months where he does
beautiful all year long we make the aperitif and
these youngsters are doing a lot of things
wait it’s the politicians the guys
healthy and choose the right months so
this little story she and she and
she is very schematic but she
sums up the story of our
civilization
and above all it shows how much
the man was capable of the best but
also capable of the worst by disrupting
things he himself cleverly regulated
that’s it then I definitely do not want
to do morality when we love history
as I read it as it is my case
does it purely
entertaining captivating to search
beautiful stories
and to embellish the ordinary know I
am convinced that by being curious as
I have always been
it allows to re – enchant life
to improve a daily that suddenly
becomes enchanted who explodes a little
like these animated books you know them
pop up it jumps in all directions and I
think very honestly that this
questioning this happiness it is in the
question mark in the fact of getting
ask questions you know when
I was in philosophy I was until
Licence
excuse me not bad thank you
no, but today it’s called a
master what I think that when we
said yeah I’m fired from
philosophy
that means you got fired no
no to licensed licensees so
now says a master 1 meter this is
more serious I I am very
pompously proud to hold a
master of philosophy
in short our teachers told us the
philosophy is not to seek
final points the philosophy is
look for assumptions do not conclude
never try anything to fight your
certainties stay in the thermos in
the questions are socrates with
the famous phrase of all that I know
it is that I do not know anything it is the doubt
Cartesian
that’s the philosophy learn to
stay awake finally it’s
learn to stay with his ability
of wonder to be amazed his
continue to look at the world with
children’s eyes and the only thing that
I want to tell you if you do
like me you will feel a little more
young I assure you
grow your why it’s the best
way to face life and I will
ensures to fight against death thank you
[Applause]
