Thinking with our ears

التفكير بآذاننا

Not Translated

The sound of thought, from ancient acoustics to modern microphones.

What if we listened carefully to the voice of thoughts?

We often forget that thought has a sound, whether it is a loud noise or a gentle rustle. We even tried to silence the thought.

However, in the writings of philosophers, we hear cries and whispers. Their voices and accents are an integral part of their thoughts. From ancient audio equipment to today's microphone, François Nudelman uses his stethoscope to study philosophy.Nodelman proposes a “sonic ecology of thought” to study the sonic environments in which philosophy is created and to which philosophy contributes to creating.
