Biography

Director and author of radiophonic programmes, Philippe Baudouin lives and works in Paris. A philosopher by training, and specialised in the history of Technique and media, he has published several works and articles on the question of radiophonic writing, notably in the work of Walter Benjamin. He is currently working on the ways in which different occultist tendencies have, throughout history, seized upon the technical object, both in terms of mediation and communication.
