I'm back home after an excellent "La Réunion des Communs" event. I just posted an article on my blog about the talks and workshops I gave:

The library of Saint-Joseph, a contemporary building in appaerance made of wood with the shape of a geometrical hourglass patched with many windows. Green palm trees and tropical plants are all around it. In the front, the banner of the "Reunion des Communs" Top down photo on a table of three A4 sheet of paper and my sketchbook (with a sticker Pepper&Carrot on it). The sheets shows the template of my comic workshop, and two examples of comic in three panels done with ballpen.

First comic: Carrot is about to receive a book on the head, but the book is magical and fly away.

Second comic: Pepper tries to bring a caldron to the cave. She unfortunately falls in the void outside of the stairs with it. Fortunately, the caldron transforms into a parachute and smiles.
A photo of a part of the library where tables had computers with tablet to do digital painting using Krita. I'm helping a young girl on the photo. She is painting a sunset. One of the room set for the talks. A screen, a projector, a computer, many empty chairs on a terrace surrounded by endemic plants and tree of the island.
C'est génial, ça ! Il y a des vidéos de l'event ?
@stemy Merci, les conf n'ont pas été filmé mais maintenant que j'ai les slides prête pour ces deux là, je compte les refaire dans d'autres évenements qui seront filmé. Je tiens au courant quand ça sera le cas.
C'était super d'avoir eu la chance de t'y rencontrer ! Merci pour ces moments de partage.
@jnoel Merci surtout à toi pour toute l'installation, les dépannages, l'orga en amont des ateliers pour les écoles, etc ! Je n'imagine pas les heures necessaire à la confections de tous les systèmes présent sur place. C'était super intéressant aussi d'apprendre au sujet de Zourit, et notre discusstion m'a redonner envie de redépoussiérer mon compte G1. Franchement, au plaisir de se revoir ... j'éspère bien pour l'an prochain ! 😊
Looks like a fun event.

Just a tip, if you wish to protect the privacy of those in the photo make sure to black it out (solid color) not blur. Blurring can be removed.
@adamsdesk Hey, thanks Adam. Bluring (pixelated/mosaic) can be approximately removed for text: I saw the proof of concept about it and I agree.

For face; I'm sure a IA can 'approximate' a face by denoising it, but it will not get the same facial features (especially because I smudged/liquified part of mouth/eyes before applying the mosaic effect) and so the identity will be protected.
@Adam
I should have know you would have been on top of this 😄.
j'aurai tellement adoré.
