Anchored in a unique practice of phoNography and field recording, our desire for spaces and our practice of sound drive us to imagine devices and experiences that take the form of soundwalks or siestas, bare or "augmented" ear listening walks, listening yoga, or architectural sound installations.
These forms have been co-produced by organizations such as Le Cube (Digital Creation Center), Espace Mendes France / Lieu Multiple (Center for Scientific, Technical and Industrial Culture), Lieux Publics (National Center and European Creation Pole), L'Usine (CNAREP), and Maison Salvan (Contemporary Art Center).
The "re_COMPOSED re_ALITY" device was awarded the DICRéAM (CNC - 2015) and the "Toulouse Up!" grant (City of Toulouse - 2014).
The reach of Espaces Sonores extends both locally (Toulouse Metropolis; Museum Toulouse; Quai des Savoirs...), regionally (ZAT, Montpellier; Ultrason Network, Aude; PMCA Perpignan Méditerranée...), nationally (MNHN, Paris; CCAS; Domaine de Chamarande; Musiques Démesurées; Longueur d'Ondes; I Sulleoni, Bastia...), and internationally (Singapore Arts Festival; "Semana de la Escucha", Medellin; "Hearsay International Audio Festival", Kilfinane; "When Art meets Science", Bozar, Brussels; Sonic Narratives, Timisoara ECC 2023...).
Since 2019, Stéphane Marin, artistic director of the company, teaches - and is a member of the Master "Sound Path" jury - at the National School of Audiovisual of Toulouse (ENSAV). He regularly gives lectures and workshops in higher schools of art and architecture (ULB, ENSAT, ENSAD, EESI...) as well as in agricultural high schools (LEGTA Beaulieu & Ondes), primary schools (program "Passeport pour l'Art" - Toulouse Metropolis since 2019), inviting all audiences to lend an ear.
He also produces radio pieces for France Culture, Arte Radio, and RFI.
His contributions are spread throughout the internet: Acoustic Cameras - Radio Aporee - Cities & Memory - Framework Radio.
His music is published on the Unfathomless (BEL) and Galaverna (IT) labels.
He contributed as a Peer Reviewer to the international conference "Listening pasts, listening futures", WFAE 2023, USA.
