Manos Saklas invites François J. Bonnet—a Franco-Swiss composer, theorist, and electroacoustic musician—for a discussion on Otoliths in Flux. 
They talk about Bonnet’s fascination with listening, the multimodal nature of sound, his anti-dogmatic compositional methodologies, and his music under the alias Kassel Jaeger. They also cover recent and upcoming projects, as well as Bonnet’s role as the director of INA GRM in Paris. The conversation further explores his writings, including The Order of Sounds: A Sonorous Archipelago, After Death and The Infra-World, along with his manifesto The Music to Come, where he speculates on the future of music and its intersections with technology, aesthetics, and philosophy. 
Otoliths in Flux is a digital platform exploring emerging sonic art through artist talks, discussions, and radio pieces with influential contemporary artists, theorists, and composers.
