    • Fenêtre Ovale

    Between July 2020 and March 2021 I was involved in the radio show of Fenêtre Ovale, a collective from Bruxelles, on the webradio LYL. In each episode, we introduced a subject which put in the front the relations between sound and the living things from the most general point of view. The show is having a break for now. The show is in french language only.

    You can find all the episodes here and below, all my subjects, bibliographies and playlists for the episodes I was involved in.
