SONIC EXPLORATIONS
Aude Langlois is a French sound artist and composer based in Berlin. Her sonic palette comprises analogue instruments, voice and extensive digital processes, creating abstract textures that unfold in space. She holds a Master's in Sound Studies from the University of the Arts of Berlin and a Bachelor of Music and Musicology from Paris-Sorbonne.
She explores the spatial possibilities of artificial voices - especially as part of the STIP-4 for composers working with artificial intelligence in innovative ways within the sound art duo Ekheo (Musikfonds, 2025). She also collaborates on interdisciplinary projects such as Birds and Dreamers, a sound installation based on the bird’s reserve of Baitz (Hohes Fläming - Brandenburg) and on experimental projects with artists such as The Painter by Donata Wenders or Lost Voices by Anika.
