Abstract: The human intelligence and in particular its creative potential seems to be, for many scientists, made of processes that cannot be automated by the means of a computer.

Keywords: accumulation, brain, chaos, conformal mapping, convolution, creativity, Fast Fourier Transform, fractal geometry.

Whether the human brain is a machine or not is one of the oldest questions posed by human beings. Two answers are given: yes and no, neither being scientifically justified. My personal view about this question is that the brain is a machine that constantly receives external data (by the means, for example, of the visual system), transforms, processes and memorizes it, and then produces output at the muscular level (to walk, to talk,...). Creativity could then be the "simple" result of numerous combinations and transformations of former memorized data thus giving birth, from time to time, to very surprising new data...
A tribute to Sandro Botticelli [Un hommage à Sandro Botticelli].

Tribute to Beaudelaire
[Hommage à Beaudelaire]L'étranger
Qui aimes-tu le mieux, homme énigmatique, dis ? ton père, ta mère, ta soeur ou ton frère ?
Je n'ai ni père, ni mère, ni soeur, ni frère.
Tes amis ?
Vous vous servez là d'une parole dont le sens m'est resté jusqu'à ce jour inconnu.
Ta patrie ?
J'ignore sous quelle latitude elle est située.
La beauté ?
Je l'aimerais volontiers, déesse et immortelle.
L'or ?
Je le hais comme vous haïssez Dieu.
Eh ! qu'aimes-tu donc, extraordinaire étranger ?
J'aime les nuages... les nuages qui passent... là-bas... là-bas... les merveilleux nuages !
Je n'ai ni père, ni mère, ni soeur, ni frère.
