Big news: I’m part of the 2026 @mozillafoundation Fellow cohort! Over the next year, embedded with the Unitary Foundation, I’ll be diving deep into open-source quantum software infrastructure. The goal: building community-driven tools for quantum error correction and ensuring that open source stacks remain central as quantum computer mature. taken in Paris, France by @mathysrennela

MansA Radio - Artistes noir·es et minorisé·es dans les scènes électroniques : penser la fête de demain

Lancement d’Explain The Sound, le premier podcast original de MansA
20 juin 2026

À l’occasion du lancement du podcast Explain The Sound, MansA propose une rencontre consacrée à la place historique et centrale des artistes noir·es dans les cultures électroniques.

Nées des expériences afrodescendantes et queer, la house et la techno ont longtemps constitué des espaces de création, de liberté et de résistance. Pourtant, les communautés qui les ont façonnées continuent de faire face à des mécanismes d’invisibilisation et d’appropriation.

Après une écoute collective d’extraits du podcast, cette rencontre ouvrira une réflexion sur les enjeux qui traversent aujourd’hui les scènes électroniques : représentation, transmission, mémoire, accès aux espaces festifs et transformation des cultures de la nuit.

Comment préserver l’histoire de ces mouvements ? Comment imaginer des espaces festifs plus inclusifs ? Et comment faire de la fête un lieu où les récits, les luttes et les héritages qui l’ont vue naître continuent de s’affirmer ?

Avec Marie-Maxime Dricot, Mathys Rennela et Élodie Vitalis (ABS8LUTE).
Rencontre modérée par Laure Togola.

Cover : Luce Ebene / @klme__

Mom, I still feel your presence everywhere in my life. You were always afraid that you would be judged for your sometimes clumsy words, but know that it is your kindness and your actions of kindness that you’ll be remembered by. I will always love you. by @mathysrennela

Ce samedi 25 mai dès 11h se déroulera le dernier talk de la saison co-organisé par @audimateditions et @laboulenoire_

Pour cette édition, les musiques électroniques seront questionnées sous le prisme de l’appropriation, de l’exotisation et du fétichisme. 

Les interventions de chercheurs (Samuel Lamontagne et @mathysrennela ), croisées à l’expérience de terrain des musiciennes du duo @acidusa_ ouvriront des pistes de réflexion retraçant l’histoire et l’actualité de la culture DJ, qui seront ensuite approfondies à travers un échange avec le public.

🪑 La Boule Noire propose un format assis intimiste, la jauge est donc limitée et la réservation est fortement conseillée.

☕ Les billets gratuits étant déjà épuisés, les préventes restantes sont les participations payantes (5€ avec café et 8€ avec café et viennoiserie).

I have been documenting political street art for a bit more than half a year now. This one remains one of my favourites. It’s subtle, yet its meaning can easily be understood from its context. After all, it hangs above the door of one of the poshest neighbourhoods of Paris. #streetartparis #streetart by @mathysrennela

I tried to find some spare time to document street art on a recent trip to London. It was a busy trip so this one was my only lucky find. Am I just more trained to find them in Paris, or is the city of Paris just a better host for street art? #streetart taken in London, United Kingdom by @mathysrennela

New project: I document political street art. This is why ⬇️⬇️⬇️

A few weeks ago, somebody wrote “white lives matter” on a pillar next to my office. It made me feel uneasy. Two days later, somebody blacked out ‘white’ and wrote ‘black’ instead. That’s how it remains to this day.

Over the past months, I’ve seen people correct street art they disagree with. I see the city as a stage for a dialogue on some of the hardest topics we face as a society.

The public space is a canvas on which everybody can express their opinion, and be directly seen by the public. Even when it is only for a fleeting moment, it is now one of the purest forms of free expression we know.

And I want to document it as much as I can. #streetartparis #streetart taken in Paris, France by @mathysrennela

I had the opportunity to elaborate on some of my recent work for @technomaterialism at @listenfestivalbrussels a few weeks ago.

I have spent a lot of time in recent months thinking about the crisis that the cultural sector is in, with a particular focus on the dance music industry. I am very greatful for the feedback I've received from people in and outside the industry, and the continuous support I've received from my peers on those topics.

While giving a lecture at the University of Amsterdam recently, I have come to realise that I have barely scratched the surface and that there is still a long way to go. This is still work-in-progress!
