This serie of audio recordings uses storytelling and descriptions to resume the different concepts and moments that led to the creation of the Social Sensibility R&D Departments at the Bernard Controls' factory plants in Beijing and in Gonesse.
These recordings are important to witness the crucial part played by the spoken word in both the theoretical and the pragmatic dynamics that have growth along 7 years from the beginning of the project.        Despite the fact that to really understand the quality and the essence of the project, direct observation and involvement remain the most convincing approaches, the spoken word is also another fundamental part to set up the complex relational process around which the practice is conceived.
