I just received an email of a friend to tell me about this sad news : Arnaud Mercier, who was the designer behind the Elixir Studio and co-creator of the Area17 agency, passed away on september 26th in Marseille...

He was one of the first to design amazing interactive web site using flash (it was flash 3 at this time) and shockwave... it was back in 1999... He also did photography who had a big influence on my work, the way he use colors and unusual composition... I found in my archives a lot of images of his work...

My thoughts are with his family and friends...
