Excerpt from "I Have Never Seen A Sound" by R. Murray Schafer 2009:
"Sounds tell me about spaces, whether small or large, narrow or broad, indoor or outdoor. Echoes and reverberation inform me about surfaces and obstructions. With practice I can begin to hear “acoustic shadows,” just like the blind."

The distant sound of the carillon bells at Reims Cathedral.
The shadow and light of stained glass.
The people. Their footsteps. The birds.

Extrait de "I Have Never Seen A Sound" par R. Murray Schafer 2009:
"Les sons me renseignent sur les espaces, qu'ils soient petits ou grands, étroits ou larges, intérieurs ou extérieurs. Les échos et la réverbération me renseignent sur les surfaces et les obstacles. Avec de l'entraînement, je peux commencer à entendre les "ombres acoustiques", tout comme les aveugles."

Le son lointain du carillon de cloches de la cathédrale de Reims.
L'ombre, la lumière des vitraux.
Les gens. Leurs pas. Les oiseaux.
