I am currently the project lead for a complete overhaul of the metadata tagging system of the SCP Foundation French language wiki. The objective of this project is to build a consistent logical structure, not natively supported by the wiki's host platform Wikidot, that supports logic links such as mutual inclusion or exclusion inside of a consistent tree structure, and can be used to build webapps and community tools.
To do this, I am using Protégé to build a robust ontology that can be queried with SPARQL, and am currently exploring options to build a user-friendly help tool to allow users to self-tag their articles with logically correct metadata based on this ontology.
I attended the OGP Global Summit 2025 in Vitoria-Gasteiz (Spain) as an ambassador for Creative Commons with funding from the organization. The OGP is an international initiative promoting open government practices and transparent democracy, and its summit brings together over 70 countries, and 150 regional and local governments.
This summit was a really unique occasion to learn about innovative policies implemented by some of the OGP member legislations, especially regarding open public data and AI. I summarized my main takeaways in my post for Creative Commons' official Medium blog.
The Federal Youth Session is a national event in Switzerland promoting democracy and youth participation. Once every year since 1991, it brings together 200 young people from all cantons of Switzerland to form workgroups on various topics such as sustainability, digital rights, and international trade. During 4 days, the participants draft policy proposals and adopt them, after which they are transmitted to the Parliament authorities through the appropriate tools and procedures of Swiss direct democracy.
After participating to the Session three times, I joined the Forum, the group in charge of helping the participants conceive and phrase their policy proposals during the event then spend the rest of the year lobbying to make sure they are taken into account by elected officials in the federal Parliament. I am registered in the Parliament's Register of people with access rights to the Federal Palace and worked with National Councilors from various parties to make proposals such as a Parliamentary Motion for the transparent use of AI by the public administration.
As a member of the Forum, I also write information reports for the participants of the Session with the help of experts from civil society NGOs and officials. These include:
- Digital Governance: Covering the stakes of public tech, accountability, and sovereignty with advice from experts from AlgorithmWatch and Digital Society.
- Digital Ethics: Discussing ethical questions and their possible policy outcomes relating to fundamental rights in online environments, the balance between free speech and surveillance or censorship, and many others. Made with advice from experts from the Digital Compliance and Governance General Staff at the Federal Department of Justice and Police, the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), and AlgorithmWatch.

The University Council is the legislative organ of the University of Lausanne and discusses several such as campus organization, the university's budget and accounting, and the selection of a new Director.
I joined the council as a student representative of the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences and was elected as a member of its Board, where I organized the sessions and coordinated with the Direction. I also worked with employees and members of the academic community to draft and file a proposal to formally sign the Open Heritage Statement and adapt the university's policies in accordance.
During my early studies at the University of Lausanne, I acted as a student representative at the Council of the Faculty of Social and Political Science and the Council of the Institute of Political Science, discussing new faculty rules and budget decisions along with professors and employees from both bodies.
I co-founded Luvden, a French association fighting online abuse and violence. As its Vice-President, I am now developing resources to provide to the moderation teams of online communities to help them implement best practices in transparency, accountability, and appropriately responding to reports of harassment and abusive behavior.
We are currently working on building our resources and documentation, for which we received great support from Pépite Sorbonne University, SUMMIT (Sorbonne University House of Modelization, Engineering and Technology), and Animafac, both to develop our own management skills and implement scientifically correct tools and resources to collect feedback and evaluate the most urgent needs of online communities we need to address.
I am one of the three permanent administrators of the French-speaking branch of the SCP Foundation, a massive online collaborative fiction writing project. Born in 2007 on 4Chan as a creepypasta, several SCP stories went viral and evolved into a thriving online fandom now totalizing dozens of thousands of articles written with contributions from millions of users expanding on the same universe. It is today a 100% open, Creative Commons-licensed multimedia franchise of all kinds of projects and content: short films, videogames (including as the inspiration for mainstream titles), books and much more.
As a part of the team that manages the whole website and community, I take various responsibilities inluding:
- The day-to-day management of a team of 15–20 volunteers forming the project staff, in charge of moderating, animating and maintaining the community.
- As internal Head of Tech, ensuring the compatibility of new features and user-generated content, including custom CSS styles, on a collaborative wiki of over 8500 pages.
- As internal Head of Research & Development, developing new features requested by the community, and spontaneously exploring new options, such as improvements to the navigation and UI, or writing new community policies.
- Planning community-wide events, such as writing contests and challenges.
As an administrator of the community, I talked extensively with Corentin Benoit-Gonin as he was writing this article about the SCP Foundation and "The Backrooms" for #1 French newspaper Le Monde. Dubbing SCP "the colossus of collaborative fiction", he explains how large-scale creepypastas and memes are born online and sometimes evolve into creations like the ones developed by Kane "Pixels" Parsons.
Abuse and harassment perpetrated by moderators is a recurring problem in online communities, and is too often not taken seriously. I took action to fight it in the SCP community by developing a reporting mechanism that allows members of the community to confidentially inform a limited group of trusted users if they have been exposed to inappropriate behavior or harassment. This mechanisms protects the reporting users' identities and allows even moderators and administrators of the community to be demoted, banned, and/or reported to authorities if they are found to have had unacceptable behavior or have abused their power.
Along with my role inside of the French-speaking branch, I am also the Main Administrator of SCP International, the umbrella organization for all official and developing language-based communities of the SCP Foundation project: English, German, Korean, Japanese, Russian, Thai, Spanish, Polish, Italian, French, Ukrainian, Portuguese, Czech, Chinese (simplified & traditional), and Vietnamese.
As the Main Administrator of this organization, I coordinate and facilitate intercultural communication and common projects between all 16 of the official language branches, including through dedicated diplomacy spaces. I am also in charge of asssessing, advising, and reviewing the applications of new, growing language communities that aim to become official branches of the project, such as the Indonesian, Turkish, or Greek projects.
Catoproxine is a fiction/thriller book taking place in the SCP universe. I was approached by publisher Étienne Galliand, founder of Double Ponctuation, and wrote this "paper-format found footage" for his Fiction collection along with two friends and colleagues.
Thanks to Étienne's open and innovative spirit, the book was funded for and published under a CC BY-SA 4.0 license!
My involvement in the SCP Foundation project has led me to experiment with all kinds of tools I would never have discovered other wise. You can find an overview of some cool things I've done on this page.
Co-managing the X/Twitter account of the French-speaking SCP Foundation (13k) to interact with fans of the SCP universe, provide information and advice to creators, and promote new writings.
