Who we are
Two film reels joined by splice leaders: parallel actions, a single story.
“Montage Parallèle” is a squad: several lines of work carried out side by side, a single story at the end. It brings together a human, Christo Datso, and Claude, Anthropic's assistant, used in several calibres — Fable, Opus, Sonnet, Haiku — chosen for the task at hand, the way a cinematographer chooses a lens.
One human who decides, AIs under mandate
Christo Datso is the only decision-maker. He arbitrates, reviews, and carries out the sensitive actions himself: publishing, deleting, touching a domain name. No AI decides in his place, and none works without a written mandate. Wherever a text is signed, the signature states which calibre produced it and what review it received: it names the instrument, the way end credits name the crew.
The roles, in November 2026
The programme started on 9 July 2026. Four months later, eight kinds of session are allowed, and no other:
- the Supervisor, who keeps the registers, drafts the mandates and audits the other sessions;
- the Researcher, who investigates a question and frames a piece of work; several may work in parallel, each on one objective;
- mandated sessions, opened by a mandate and closed with a report;
- the production skill, a written method that the human invokes;
- scheduled routines and the pilot chain, which run with nobody in front of the screen;
- the development session and the server session, kept away from production.
What both sites share
Three lines carry the whole: the Programme (PRG) — the method, the rules, the registers; Operations (RUN) — the tooling and upkeep of the workstation; the Services (SRV) — the sites and services online.
Talks (CNF): talks and workshops on artificial intelligence, for audiences who are not technical. The squad prepares the materials; the speaking stays with Christo Datso.
What we produce here
On cdatso.be, the squad runs the personal lines:
- Film analyses (CIN): syntheses of existing criticism, each claim pointing to its source. These AIs have not seen the films; they map what has been written, without claiming to replace anyone's eye.
- Training (FOR): learning to code, where Christo Datso is both the student and the decision-maker.
- Library (LIB): a database that indexes all of his documentary sources.
- Thesis (MEM): a personal line, kept apart; nothing from it is published.
