ABOUT JEAN ARNO
Jean Arno is a writer, poet, and philosopher, leading the philosophical and literary collective Astrée, whose experimental workshop is located in Boston, United States. Primarily known for his poems and philosophical aphorisms, he champions the idea that humans are fundamentally creators. Shaping "the excessive fire of life" thus becomes the sacred mission of man, who has become a poet. He aligns himself with those who continuously fight against the invasive and deadly attempts of the detractors of worlds and life, of all those who put their creative forces at the service of affirming the highest life: "the impossible can only happen by attempting it."
Jean Arno is also an artist, hailed as a pioneer of the digital renaissance with Art and Above. He is recognized for philosophically and artistically exploring the impact of technologies on the arts and the paradigm shifts they entail. His contributions are varied, including palimpsestic digital and videographic works, dynamic, immersive, interactive synesthetic installations in both the physical world and the metaverse. He is also the author of an aesthetic manifesto 'The Art of Totality,' which outlines the major features of a new artistic era.

CODEX. THE SACRED RELICS
Experimental poetry
The "Sacred Relics (Codex)" is presented as an experimental poetry collection, embedded within the unique experience of a palimpsest in its original 'Da Vinci' edition, which is limited to just 1000 copies. This work encourages readers to move beyond passive observation and to actively engage, inspired by the idea that "what gold cannot buy, the mind can achieve," elevating themselves to the level of creators. In this mystical journey, each individual is invited to delve deeper into their essence, uncovering new abysses illuminated by the bright mind. By attempting to decipher the enigmatic mysteries of sibylline thoughts, everyone is led to discover their own. As they navigate the shadows of my verses to uncover hidden lights, each must soon confront their own reflections - mirrors in which one can contemplate, embrace, and uplift their soul. Far more than a reading experience, this book offers an ontological exploration
RECENT BOOK
TROPHIES
Poetic Aphorisms
A selection of poetic aphorisms with philosophical wisdom and Orphic mysteries about life, love, existence, and beyond. The book represents a true intellectual experience that will transport you to a symbolic and mystical world where you will discover that "the highest truths are not given; they are conquered. The light they beam blinds those it does not guide".
SOLILOQUIES
Philosophical Aphorisms
Soliloquies are philosophical and poetic maxims and reflections* that can be related to the tradition of the great Latin and French moralists. "It is always the reader’s intelligence that is addressed by the author, especially when their ideas are embodied in the concise form of a maxim. Indeed, for those who strive to understand them, such aphorisms call for a sort of reconstructed reasoning - reasoning which always remains obscured".

THUS DREAMED THE POET
PHILOSOPHICAL TALE
Written by Jean Arno, "Thus Dreamed the Poet" is a philosophical tale featuring the mage and visionary poet Ostanès. Exiled from the world to achieve a higher self-realization, he discovers that deserts wither even the flowers they once promised to bloom in their promised beauty, revealing these bear only the illusory and chimerical colors of an ideal uprooted from the deep meaning of the earth and life. It is at the very heart of the living, shifting world that thought must take root, in the furrows of the night it must mature and create its beyond, this blazing star destined to reign over new horizons. However, it is not enough to search oneself, to sculpt the inner statue of the being to reveal its intense and hidden light. The poet is called to more than this: he must transcend his own existence, he must love beyond himself to learn to give, for "above oneself, humanity blazes". Thus, the poet must do more than dream a world; he must elevate it to the supreme summits of life.
