Geneva, Banking District, 1979  © André Knoerr

What if… the story would begin with an end

November 2009. I found myself in a classical and delightfully old fashion mansion in the banking district of Geneva, shivering next to the old boiler, diploma in hand, what was I going to do with my life? On an evening of flu fever, I started to write, write, write. I was far from suspecting that this “Geneva story” was going to happen. The first words flooded under my fingers…

« The cover. The surface of the glossy paper, deceptive by its beauty so perfect, so varnished, so desirable; a capricious one that crumples at the slightest unpleasant word, condemned to expiation by the violence of the tearing. The mirror pulverized, the lie undressed, sabotaged, ostracized, it is at this moment that the true story stammers out imperfect syllables, whispered from the depths of a human fragility that ignores its power, huddled against the back of its armor, under the mask and under the makeup. Under the cover. »

…. Geneva UnderCover was born.

The Geneva context of the magazine and then the blog, first defined the identity of the articles, whether on the city culture or on the life at the Faculty of sciences at the university. After my graduations, if the tone is willing to keep its student spark, Geneva UnderCover remains a professional blog.
