Les Machines animales includes improvised works designed during a residence at Avatar. Integrating a wide range of microphones and their friction, the creative process has led to sounds evoking machines as well as the animal aspect. The work is structured like a story, the titles well indicate the archetypal form proposing a world of fiction, fairy tales or animation.

Les Machines animales comes with a booklet entitled Le Livre sonore. It illustrates multidisciplinary visual arts, one of the artist’s lesser-known practices. Objects, book-objects, installations: the documentation follows a process that has gone on for at least twenty years.
