Music

You can listen to me playing some classical pieces on my piano. Since I am not a professional pianist, needless to say that it's far from perfect.

• Chopin's Etude Opus 10 No. 1 in C major (1:56)   (File Size: 1.9 MB)
• Rachmaninov's Prelude Opus 23 No. 4 in D major (4:00)   (File Size: 3.8 MB)
• Debussy's Prelude Pour Le Piano (3:29)   (File Size: 3.3 MB)

Puzzles

I am really into puzzles, and have participated in the World Puzzle Championship several times.

• Magnetic cross-sums - a hard puzzle I designed for the 2006 French WPC qualifying test.
• Magnetic fences - a puzzle I designed for the 2007 French WPC qualifying test.
• The 2008 French WPC qualifying test.
• Sudoku: Not? - a puzzle I designed for the department's 2008 Integral newsletter.
• The 2010 French WPC qualifying test.
• The 2011 French/Belgian WPC qualifying test.
