13.8 billion years ago, the Universe was born. The inexorable blossoming of a bud that has continued to swell, expand and dilate ever since.
At the age of 20, I remember the shock it gave me when, watching the film Annie Hall, the young Woody Allen suddenly became fully aware of the expansion of the Universe.
It contaminated me. I began to take an interest in it and have still not recovered. In a very spontaneous lyricism, this expansion of the Universe had blown this hybrid object to me.
