Biography

Since 2009, Lassus has contributed to the Spongiculture blog in which she goes through her daily life against a backdrop of acerbic humour. The project won the "Blog Revelation Prize" two years later, at the Angoulême International Comics Festival. After a master's degree in illustration at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, Lassus published her first comic book, Ça va derrière ? (Vraoum, 2012). The book explores the individual micro-events that affect the family unit. Lassus regularly participates in the Pierre Feuille Ciseaux artist residencies organized in Arc-et-Senans, which bring together each year a selection of authors among the most innovative of the alternative literary scene. Since 2014, Lassus has collaborated with the children's magazine, Biscoto, in which she publishes the story Le Meilleurissime Repaire de la Terre, honored in the youth selection of the Angoulême International Comics Festival 2018 and the subject of an exhibition in the Pavillon Jeunes Talents (young talents pavilion). In 2016, the comic Quoi de plus normal qu'infliger la vie? was published by Arbitraire. In it, Lassus highlights the situation of those women who choose not to have children.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Oriane Lassus

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Oriane Lassus claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Oriane Lassus before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Oriane Lassus ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Oriane Lassus

In research: Oriane Lassus appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Oriane Lassus in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Oriane Lassus is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1987 births, 21st-century French women writers, 21st-century French writers, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Oriane Lassus outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
