Trans-Missions and Resonant Encounters: composing the non-human body
Jussi Parikka’s *Insect Media* conceptualizes media as embodied, non-human forms that converge natural and constructed worlds through resonant milieus rather than binary oppositions. Building on this, an audio walk explores inhabiting these resonant spaces using psychoacoustic techniques to blur boundaries between music, field recordings, and sound art, challenging traditional modes of perception and bodily experience.

Paysages et territoires sonores, approches et écoutes imbriquées
Plus j’avance dans les expériences de terrain et les réflexions, plus j’éprouve la nécessité de mêler, de frotter, d’hybrider, des pratiques, des champs sociaux, des domaines de compétences, des structures agissantes, des passions et des espoirs. Au départ, il me semblait évident que certains domaines se croisaient notamment autour du paysage sonore, en œuvrant de […]
Bien entendre nos pas
Et mes talons qui claquent Clairs sur sol gelé Ils font bruisser les sentes Amortis automnaux Tapis aux feuilles mortes Percevoir mon allure Me donnent la cadence M’invitent à ralentir Ou à presser le pas La marche s’entend bien Comme un geste ambulant Étouffé d’herbe grasse Ou de neige ouateuse Réverbérée de gel Et dalles de […]
