good evening to all and good evening to all I
am delighted and flattered to be in front of you
tonight
a patient is also intimidated by the idea
to talk about a subject that I do not have
really used to tackle for everything
tell you
it’s a first for me tonight at the
both on the bottom and on the form
a way you will tell me to repel my
limits and that’s good because it’s
a little the theme of this evening
so unlike the others
I’m not a specialist
no discipline
I am neither physicists and chemists and
biologists
I’m not a teacher actually I do not
am a smuggler
my role is to make the connection between
the wisest and those who feed
to know if I accepted this
tribune it’s because I feel that
since I lead this activity I
have never stopped pushing my
intellectual limits
physical and psychological also if
I could only name one I you
will speak in priority of this limit
crossed 23 years ago
without this gesture I think I will only be
not there tonight 23 years ago I’m
journalist
my editor is Frederic
running my comrade fresnes
neither he nor I are scientific and
yet we will create together
the show is not rocket science
the magazine of discovery and
science then some of you are
certainly remember the credits
this american truck in the muffler
glowing rushing on a small road
from the central massif and driven by a
some thank you that will make him happy
so that was not the first limit
that I was crossing teenager I dreamed
to become a reporter when leaving school
of journalism
my thing is the radio and the press
written
I like these media because I like
to tell I like the words I like the
richness of the French language
the extent of his vocabulary the words
which allow when we like to testify
describe accurately and accurately
these words also that allow to create
in the head of the reader’s listener
atmospheres of images is from elsewhere
always thought that words are the
first tools from which
men made images
virtual cerebral but virtual
always is it that I find myself
parachuted to radio france first in lille
then to bordeaux
we are in 1989 in october
I have some contacts
in berlin in 1989 europe is divided into
two by the so-called curtain
of iron
a phone call and I understand
that he’s going to be doing something
something important something
history
so I wanted to say at that time I
have no affinity for television
but I understand that it is not enough to
tell you that you have to show
pushing one’s limits is also going
against his convictions get back into
question we lend a camera and here I am
In Berlin I film the fall of the wall
Berliner is not those of the east who
west of Berliner
the west of the medical students who
go looking for a job in the east
I understood that day that we could
tell stories as strong with
the pictures that with the words and that
maybe by marrying the two of them
could be even stronger we
again in 1994 then at the beginning of
90s science and television
it’s a serious business
when I say that I say nothing to the
television we do not mess with the
science on the bottom that’s fine on
the shape is a bit boring
in general scientists who
speak in front of a camera uses a
expert language always easy to
understand not always accessible and
then on form the broadcasts
is organized around topics in
which we find we discover a
innovation innovation which is next
commented on the board by others
most boring scientists in all
this is actually that the audience
no longer adhere to this kind of show
and the gap is widening
in addition between science and society
French then it’s true that when
we arrived with our truck and
our firm resolve to make
science accessible to all and even to
kids and well we have a little
pushed the boundaries of the genre
you know her 19 years 570
issue 570 subjects for which and there
I only speak personally
push the limits of my
knowledge indeed I am incapable
to talk about a subject without mastering it
the basics
gold you know I wanted to say I’m not
not scientific
I remember the first broadcast
a show dedicated to the sounds she
had been shot at La Rochelle to
francofolies I myself chose this
theme maybe because I do not
did not know much about it
phenomenon of curiosity and well
it’s like I went back to
school I remember rediscovering the
physical phenomenon conceptualizing long
of mechanics the vibration of molecules
that make up the air until tinting
notions that I thought were essential
concepts that were to be transmitted to the
public if we wanted to go further by
the acoustics so during this
broadcast I recalled the composition of
the air I did a little bit of anatomy the
tympanum the functioning of the ear
internal a bit of technology also the
microphone with the electro and man then there is
had a show on the liners on the
close the towers the man of cro magnon
the underwater the ants the
nuclear center
for all these broadcasts I had to
push the limits of my
knowledge
so it was not always easy
but what happiness
what happiness to understand I confess
have sometimes felt the same emotion
than by discovering a master’s painting or
reading a poem
and yes you know you know you
are scientist the pressure to have
found this little door that allows
to access the backstage of the world who
surrounds us and better understand
I think that’s what wanted
to express rabelais in the fifteenth century when
he was talking about the gay know this
knowledge that is good
so to understand is very good but
then it must be said explained
transmit find the words and that’s it
certainly the most difficult
find the right words without disguise
the scientific reality so that in one
minute thirty two minutes the audience
completely uninitiated include the
phenomenon for that commitment this famous
conceptualization process it takes
find the words the images and models
the rhythm and the tone all these
experiences have taught me one thing this is
that everything can be explained finally everything
the state of knowledge at a moment t
and that’s what I continue to do
today through two broadcasts
like a garden urge a show
who as his name indicates is consecrated
in the garden and botany it can you
surprise
here are some of the topics that
hold dear
there is
botanic tell the history of gardens
it’s telling the story of the men of
their displacement from their conquest of
their connection with nature and
the environment and then a garden
finally this is the only place where the
science and poetry meet
then the seed was sown there a little
more than a year if you want to see her
grow and grow well this is the
Sunday at 4:15 pm on France 3 and then there
there is
the world of jamie the world never a
two-hour broadcast broadcast as a bonus
time at 20:50 on France 3 a double challenge
first because betting on the
knowledge at a great time
listening to the entertainment and
series is not won but hey we get
do not miss it we manage even
sometimes very well second challenge it’s
that I find myself now on the
field in the company of the journalist
myriam boulahfa the goal being
to explain the phenomena at the moment
same where they unfold do what
I call immediate pedagogy
so to do this pedagogy
immediately I had to cross another type
of limits
I did not expect it necessarily
physical boundaries as will testify
the images that are broadcast
it’s an excerpt from the last show
which was devoted to volcanoes and
earthquakes it’s about climbing the
volcano pacaya in guatemala this is a
volcano that woke up there is a whole
little less than a year in the month of
january we lie in the company of a
geologist emmanuel delstanches who is
in front of and a vulcanologist
geoffroy var who is right in front of me
I’m at the end of the pack in blue
volcano interests us because it is at
the effusive time is explosive both in
same time the explosions and pours
of lava and that’s what we expect
see once at the summit only
that’s the climb is not going to happen
exactly as we had imagined
first one must imagine that
we walk in a kind of
gravel in fact these are spirits of
small shreds of lava cooled to
every step during this ascent
sinks to the ankle
and as you can see
and well the volcano gets caught in
a cloud of fog we are under
the tropics and yet I can you
promise that he’s very cold there in
from the wind a condensation like never I
have not seen I promise you with
glasses is a real ordeal
writes this moisture that runs through
the event the clothes I repeat
a calvary after three hours of
walk from base camp
we finally arrive at the top of the volcano
at the level of the crater at this level
which is called the lip the lip of the
crater and there the show is fascinating
you saw some pictures
lava gushes out a few dozen
meters from us at about where
is the ruler of the flaps of lava
who leave like that in height even
do a little attention for good
check where ccga fall
help from the avs
so we could have stopped there
only geoffroy the vulcanologist is
not completely satisfied because at
where we are we do not see
not this famous lava flow
gold we came to see both
that’s what’s interesting about this
volcano to see the flow must be done
the crater ride
is it dangerous we do not know
not but we trust the expert and
we decide to follow him and we
start to bypass the crater and there
it’s even worse
it’s worse because we’re moving on
a kind of cant that plunges into the
crater and we walk in a kind
from ashes of the avs by lying better
like that of sambre school mixed with
sulfur this time it sinks up to
mid calf I promise you that at each
page was looking in front of my shoe
that a crack is not created at the end
one hour on the other side
of the volcano is there the show is
extraordinary I had never seen
there is on one side the crater with its jets
of lava his shreds of lava and
the other a crack with the lava
costs that run out both at the same
time
then you will tell me why be
went that far why have you crossed
this limit finally images
would have been enough well I do not think so
I’m not even convinced otherwise
I think this is the only way to
that the public apprehends measures the
power of the phenomenon
I think the role of the smuggler is
also a given moment to create a link
physical between the subject of which he speaks and
the audience to whom it is addressed
and then the words themselves which explains
are never as fair as when
we pronounce them
after having or when you feel
the ground the ground vibrate for rats
count a volcano must of course have
a precise idea of what is going on under
our feet from its mechanism
but to tell what he has in the
belly and twice as close to
the beast
well I think that on one side as
the other
I will never give up on pushing back my
limits thank you for our
Warning
I hope you have shared a little
from what guides me
and thank you for your loyalty
also without limits because without you I do not
would not be here very soon on
screens and on networks
[Applause]
