SONIC EXPLORATIONS



Aude Langlois is a French sound artist, composer and lecturer based in Berlin. She graduated with a Master's degree in ‘Sound Studies’ from the Berlin University of the Arts and a Bachelor's degree in ‘Music and Musicology’ from the Paris-Sorbonne. In her work, she combines electronic instruments, acoustic textures and vocal elements to explore the interaction points between technology and perception. Whether as part of sound-to-image projects, music for theatre or spatial audio compositions, she creates sound experiences that inspire reflection and encourage active listening.
As part of the collaborative project LEEWA (recipient of STIP-4 Stipendienprogramm zur Künstlichen Intelligenz from Musikfonds in 2024) within Ekheo (with Belinda Sykora), she explores the relationship between AI, voice and ethics. Her own focus is on the technical and perceptual possibilities of spatial audio to give artificial voices a tangible presence.
