What I'm focused on right now.

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

March, 2026

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: Rebuilding the Gallery Charly website (transitioning from WordPress to Next.js).
Reading: The Experience Economy: Work is Theatre and Every Business is a Stage by B. Joseph Pine and James Gilmore.
Listening: Scylla (listening a bit less lately after losing my headphones).
Location: Helsinki (Spring is slowly arriving). Moving to Espoo soon.
Language: Continuing Finnish courses. It's challenging, but I'm making progress.
Hobbies: Learning to play chess.
Wellness: Enjoying Avanto (ice swimming) and Sauna.
Writing: Releasing chapters of my fiction book, TADOW, Etoiles ancestrales. After an unsuccessful attempt with a publisher, I created the site www.tadowuniverse.com to self-publish it episode by episode.

Experimenting

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

The Atilebart Ecosystem:
Cultural Heritage & SEO:
- visitabomey.com
- ouidahorigins.com
- visitganvie.com
- Note: Traffic has started growing over the last 3 months thanks to my own efforts. I've just contacted my friend Jose, an SEO expert, to boost the content and make it more professional and human.
Fidjrosse.com: A digital homage to my favorite neighborhood in Cotonou.
Restructuring: Closed Atilebart to rebuild it on stronger foundations.
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: Published the first chapters of my book, TADOW.

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