My art, experiments and rambling
I was a bit melancholic about the internet yesterday, but I realize now that the feeling mostly came from the fact that search is very broken almost everywhere Outside of fedi nobody uses hashtags anymore. So if you want to discover new opinion and current discussion on let’s say gardening you need
Posted by NIGHTEN on December 20, 2025 In September 2024, I finally took the leap and launched my art newsletter, something I was dreaming about for months beforehand. Flash-forward to 2025, and I still kept the habit of publishing one new issue every single week, first on Sunday evening a
Artists often have this shame about “promoting” what they are doing, even if it’s something they do for no monetary gain. They are afraid of bothering people, or they are doing the bare minimum when they have a new piece to show. This is a trap I fall into way too much. But I’m slowly learning how f
Never make art for social media This is not a joke. You want to make art for fun? Don’t make art for social media.You want to work in the industry and have your art published? Don’t make art for social media.You want to be famous on social media? Don’t make art for social media.
Posted by NIGHTEN on November 03, 2025 Located east of the country, this city (commonly called the Blue Roof City for its iconic tiles) is quiet and unremarkable for the untrained eye. Except maybe for the proximity of the mountain in the north and the eastern sea. But beyond its mundane a
I’m very critical of my art. I put a lot of effort into my illustrations, but each time I finish a piece I can’t help but clearly see all the flaws: The anatomy is wrong, the subject not interesting enough, those details distracting, or I’ve been lazy in some other aspect. There is always something
I came across this post by @Jo , that captured a feeling I’ve had for a long time: “Fun internet Theory” states that there are still a lot of cool and interesting things to do online. This is a reference to the Dead Internet Theory, which states that the internet is invaded with bots and algorithmic
Posted by NIGHTEN on July 28, 2025 I wanted to brainstorm an idea with you: How to reuse a single art into multiple posts. This is especially important for me, as I prefer to make fewer illustration that I can repost at any time - instead of always grinding and chasing trends. And good art

For personal website, one type of content that I think works uniquely well is the kind of page that gets updated sporadically, and is not time specific So basically instead of making a blog post "Favorite games of 2024" you have a page "Favorite games" that you can update wheneve
Posted by NIGHTEN on August 18, 2024 It has been a good while since I've last shared progress on "Hi, Welcome to Froggy's!", my silly time management game about surviving the night shift at your local Froggy's store. Progress has been very slow since the last update l
Posted by NIGHTEN on July 14, 2024 We were stuck in an airport for several hours now. I was already supposed to arrive the day before, and I didn't know at the time, but I would have to wait another 9 hours before reaching my destination. The weather was terrible, and the plane wasn
While being stranded for 24h in Germany and Paris’ airport, I finished a first version of a “Mastodon Unroller”, a simple way to take activitypub threads and make clean article out of them in your Astro website. After a few iteration I think it’s now time to show a little demo!
Tired of your boring day job? Do you need new opportunities and an unlimited supply of cheap coffee? Well, you're in luck, because your local Froggy's store is looking for a talented and hardworking person for the night shift! Hi! Today I'd like to quickly present a project I've been

Published by Nighten on September 19, 2022 Today I want to present to you a project I never talked about on the internet, only to a small circle of friends. Between March and April of this year the metro app for the city of Toulouse stopped working for me. It was really annoying, because it was grea
Published by Nighten on September 16, 2022 Whether you want to build a business or just want to be popular, I think it is concerning that we put so much emphasis on making content for free on social media. All of that is geared to build social status, clout, that by design platforms don't want y
Published by Nighten on September 15, 2022 IMPORTANT NOTE: I found this article on my hard drive. It was probably written around April of this year. Even at the time I wasn't really comfortable with the form it took, but I'm too tired to rewrite the whole thing, and I still think the message
Published by Nighten on September 11, 2022 I'm really depressed these past few days, so I wanted to write something more light on this blog for once (the stock market article was quite heavy to write ngl) Today I'd like to share with you some tunes I discovered recently.
Published by Nighten on April 15, 2022 I don't want to be preachy about my ideas, become an authority, and act as I have all the answers. I have a lot of things to say that I think can be valuable to some peoples, things that would have helped me years ago. But I never hold them as absolute trut
Published by Nighten on April 15, 2022 During the first lockdown, while seeing it falling into pieces, I got really interest in how our economy, and by extension the stock market, is working. To be clear, in case you're worrying, I've never put any money into any stocks or financial assets:
Published by Nighten on April 07, 2022 It seems like almost everyone went through a "lucid dreams" phase, especially in their teens. There's lot of content about it, and lot of technics are even commonly known: Write down your dreams, do reality testing regularly during the day, interr
Social Media make you anxious and unhappy. You check your feed compulsively, but without much pleasure. You just want to spend more time in the real world. Whatever your reason, limiting social media usage is extremely difficult. Those platform are designed to make you spend as much time as possible
Published by Nighten on March 22, 2022 Since the very beginning of this site, so around 2017, I've used WordPress to manage my blog. It came preinstalled actually, and I've been really happy with it overall. But I finally decided to switch. I want to explain why, and what custom and flawed s
Publié par Nighten le 23 janvier 2021 Allez, 2020 c’est maintenant terminé. Je suis un peu en retard, mais comme l’année dernière j’ai envie de faire une petite rétrospective de cette année, axée uniquement sur ma production de jeu. Ce sera très certainement long et très décousu, mais je vais faire
Publié par Nighten le 3 juin 2020 L’autre soir je lisais Mint Na Bokura (un peu par hasard) et je me suis mis sans m’en rendre compte à découper les cases que j’aimais pour les conserver. Ces petites vignettes font une petite collection d’autocollants que je trouve intéressants, même hors contexte.

Publié par Nighten le 26 août 2018 Les Game Jams sont des exercices fantastiques. La combinaison d’un temps très limité et d’un mouvement collectif a (presque) toujours réussi à me galvaniser suffisamment pour créer quelque chose, même si ça me semblait quasi impossible juste avant.

Publié par Nighten le 6 juin 2018 En attendant de futurs vrais articles, j’ai décidé de m’amuser un peu avec Blender, un logiciel de 3D libre et qui ne cesse de m’impressionner. De mon expérimentation j’ai fait une vidéo, et sans plus de bavardage la voici !
