Marseille. J'ai une tradition perso : faire une balade dans le Parc National des Calanques le 1er Janvier....

Le temps est incertain mais les crevures dans les nuages font des rayons derrière l'Archipel de Riou. Sur la 5ème photo, on voit de gauche à droite le Congloué, Riou et sa forme d'énorme sous-marin, Calseraigne (ou Plane car toute plate) et Jarre. avec Jarron à sa droite.

Je passe derrière les Lames et le Rocher des Goudes au dessus duquel tournent des gabians, tels des vautours...

Wzrok rozmaślił mu się w obrzydliwy sposób. — Ciri… — Co? — Ja… ja… — Nie wiem o co ci chodzi — rzekła niecierpliwie, wytrzeszczając na niego swe wielkie szmaragdowe oczy. — Ty najwyraźniej też tego nie wiesz. Idę. Bywaj, Jarre.

This was my first CD. Back in the day, I saved my pennies to buy a CD player. The prices had recently dropped, and were now down somewhere around $300. (At a time when minimum wage was $3.35/hr. It took a lot of saving.) I bought the player, only to realize that I had spent pretty much all my money and had nothing left to buy any CDs to play on it. The shop manager seemed to notice the dilemma and offered me a free CD from the rack, and I instantly grabbed Oxygene. I had several Jarre records, but not this one. It's been more than 40 years, and I still have the CD. I ended up buying a lot of CDs from that shop...

Jean-Michel Jarre Hits Reset, Blows Our Minds

On Sunday the 12th of May 2024, at around 09:50 PM CET, I left this planet and floated into space.

It wasn't a sudden thing, quite the opposite. It was a gradual sensation of weightlessness and freedom and happiness and euphoria and togetherness and warmth and love and that deep, deep feeling inside when you know that something special is happening and you're part of it, a feeling that had been building cautiously and slowly over the course of the day in Bratislava, where Jean-Michel Jarre gave us the performance of his life with a concert so perfectly done it just carried you away until at some stage you were no longer on earth, but somewhere in that happy place that exists only within the realms of music.

For me, that moment was at around 09:50 PM CET, when the opening notes of Rendezvous 2 started, and gravity just disappeared.

Jarre's "Bridge From The Future" concert was announced just over a month before it was due to take place, and it promised a lot. Too much. Free, open-air, city scale, large projections, lasers, lights, and even drones. The concert was billed to start the events of Starmus, under the slightly sinister eye of Bratislava's UFO Bridge. Even the bridge was going to be part of the fun, closed roads and everything!

You knew that this was going to be good from the trickle of photos on his social media of the stage (purpose built with those iconic screens he loved to use); from the rumours about drones and maybe search lights and even lasers projecting on buildings (and who doesn't dream of seeing those again!); and from the palpable excitement of Brian May, yes that famous Queen guitarist, who was to guest star in this production.

My dream of attending a proper Jarre spectacle was about to come true.

And wow what a spectacle.

From the countdown all the way to the final twang of Brian May's guitar, Jarre and his team managed to blend together all the elements that make these performances so magical: the music (I won't list the tracks, but there's something for everyone here), the art on the screen (high res HDR screens that practically pop), the search lights, the lasers, the drones (400 of them), the laser art on the building nearby, the guest choir and brass (who doesn't love a guest choir) and the surprise fireworks all came together to paint the perfect picture.

These elements were all clearly so meticulously planned to complement each other that they ceased to exist as single entities, but they become much, much greater than the sum of their parts and it felt as if this concert had become its own living thing, a thing that was designed to overwhelm all your senses at once, and at some stage just remove you from all your worries and cares and sadness and anxiety and let you float free and happy, practically carried by the sights and sounds you almost can't believe that you're witnessing at the time.

A dream made real.

And while Jarre has had some missteps recently in the world of VR, you feel that this concert was his way to hit reset and go back to the thing he does best: creating unique, one-off spectacles that only he can pull off, bringing thousands of people together to share the experience and come out of it closer to each other than they'd ever been before.

Old friends reunite, new friends are made, and for a magical two hours, we're all travelling together through this experience he has created for us, and when we finally land back down on earth we're filled with hope and love and happiness and a greater sense of togetherness than before.

And if this isn't the magic of a Jarre concert, then I don't know what is.

This was the worst mistake of my life. Oh my god help me. I should never have watched this movie. Why do I do this to myself.
