I architect AI systems as CTO of Dafolle in Paris. The rest of the time I make music, generative visuals and keyboards.

I’m Robin, 23, based in Paris. I’m the CTO of Dafolle, a design studio, where I lead the work on its operating system: agents, pipelines, billing, the plumbing that holds a company together. I started in 3D, sculpting characters and kitbashing ships, and I never stopped making things that aren’t code. Music on the piano and in FL Studio. Visuals in TouchDesigner. A keyboard called Synapse. People call that two careers. To me it is one signal that keeps changing shape.

03Build · Flagship · Dafolle OS

One platform. Eight products.

Dafolle OS runs a design studio end to end, from the brief to the invoice. Each of its eight products is big enough to be a project of its own.

  1. Designers brief 14 Claude agents the way they brief each other. Threads, attachments, decks, exports.

Glyphs

Piano first, then FL Studio and Serum 2. The visuals are TouchDesigner: audio in, feedback and GLSL out. Glyphs is the first piece where both halves were made together.

Synapse Nº 001

An exploded 60% with a rotary encoder, a brass weight and its own PCB. The keycaps in the field are the real layout, measured from the renders. Type on your keyboard.

Replantify

A VR system that puts you inside the pollution, then hands you the means to undo it. It won Best Debutant at CSI Hackathon 8.0 and is now a registered work.

Before the systems

I learned to see in 3D first: topology, silhouettes, how light sits on cloth and metal. Most of this is Blender and Substance, a lot of it kitbashed, all of it made before I wrote production code. It is the reason the engineering looks the way it does.

Realtime · UE5

A snowbound environment built in Unreal Engine 5: assets modelled in Blender, terrain in Gaia, a few Megascans samples, rendered in real time. The same instinct runs through Godot 4 prototypes and the TouchDesigner networks behind the music.

Mid-Pour

My first book, philosophy meeting science. It follows one small observation all the way down: something in us moves before we do. The drawing here is its cover, set in motion.

Build something with me.

Systems, AI products, the odd strange collaboration. I read everything that lands in my inbox.
