Olivier Robin was born in 1978. He began studying and working in the field of acoustics in 1999 and became a lecturer in 2021 (Department of Mechanical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Université de Sherbrooke). His parallel interests in science communication and comic books led him to publish scientific articles with comic book artists (Catherin and Marsi), to the publication of two books (Dessine Ta Science in 2022 with Benoît Leblanc and Fantastique Acoustique in 2024) and to scriptwriting (Tuer Le Peintre, with Étienne Poisson – an independent French-language comic in 2022 and winner of the Réal-Fillion Prize in 2024). He is also a member of the KrRoLe collective (recipient of the Jacques-Hurtubise Grant at the Prix Bédéis Causa in 2023 and a nominee for the Prix de la BD Alternative at Angoulême in 2024).
