Science EN ↓ 13 episodes

nature folds invites you to travel through different sonic landscapes, territories, cosmologies. Recordings of urban noises, forest sounds, wind, water, earth movements, animal cries, volcanoes, rain, leaves, sound-walks, music, broadcast through radio as animistic felt presences... nature folds is also an invitation to think of recording, editing and mixing as part of an inter-species event that takes place between the machinic and the natural, the animal and the cyborg, the human and the more-than-humman, weaving together multi-dimensional sonic fabrics.
