Thought out loud
The Philosophy of the Machine - translated into the acoustic
As announced, the "Philosophy of the Machine" (published in 2018) will take the form of an audio book, relased on a 14-day cycle. In addition to the German version, there is also an English version, the translation of which was done by Hopkins Stanley, in constant consultation with Martin Burckhardt.
It may seem strange to transplant a book (which does have a certain level of complexity) into another medium. However, this shift is not entirely coincidental. For the introduction already tells of how the author, working with sounds, samplers and sequencers, found himself confronted with a question, or more precisely: with the spirit of the machine, and that it took him on that long journey that eventually resulted in this book.
