Now

Current Focus

What I'm focused on right now.

"Focusing on things that actually excite me long-term."

Late December, 2025

Refining the Digital Clay concept. I've spent the last few weeks stripping away the noise from my digital presence. No more cluttered frameworks, just raw CSS and meaningful content.

I'm currently:

  • Building: This portfolio, polishing the i18n engine and ensuring the "Archives" feel like a real place.
  • Reading: Le code de vie primitif by Basile Adjou-Moumouni.
  • Listening: Go Slow by OPA (from Benin Republic).
  • Location: Helsinki (Winter is settling in).

Experimenting

My "Lab" is active. I'm currently developing:

  1. The Atilebart Ecosystem:
  2. Fidjrosse.com: A digital homage to my favorite neighborhood in Cotonou.
  3. Restructuring: Closed Atilebart to rebuild it on stronger foundations.
  4. Noise Shaders: Exploring tactile web interfaces.

Past Tense

This year has been defined by recalibration and execution:

  • Academics: Completed my Professional Master's in Blockchain, studied Software Engineering at Aalto University, and explored Space Economy at the ESA Academy.
  • Relocation: Moved to Helsinki 🇫🇮 and started learning Finnish.
  • Building:
    • Launched Noutala, a portfolio tool for hybrid creatives.
    • Built a custom Flask CMS for hsschultz.com.
  • Writing: Started my fiction book, TADOW, Etoiles ancestrales.

This is a "now" page, and if you have your own site, you should make one too.
