Montrealer Antoine Larose has been operating L’Envol
Québécois (the Quebec take-off), a bar-restaurant
in Paris that offers such Québécois dishes
as tourtière, cretons, tarte au sucre and fèves
au lard, along with beer from Quebec microbrewery,
Unibroue. The bar has served as a rendezvous for displaced
Quebecers for 10 years.

A computerized cloud harp playing atmospheric "music" visited France during travels that included Poland, Germany and the United States. Invented by Montrealer Nicolas Reeves, the instrument bounces an infrared laser beam off clouds and transforms their height, density and structure into sounds and musical sequences. It runs 24/7 and is online at www.cloudharp.org.
