A journal of listenings
Curated by Thierry Fournier
New: issue 10, autumn 2025
Nine issues published from 1997 to 2005
Pandore is both a listening journal and a curatorial project. The project consists of inviting guests, whatever their practice, to entrust me with a sound extract that bears witness to their work in progress, of any length (from a few seconds to 3 or 4 minutes). I then edit all these extracts end to end, respecting the order in which they arrive, without any editing, mixing or dressing.
The whole edit will then be released as an album on the Pandore Éditions website and on Soundcloud, and gives rise to one or more collective listening sessions, in the Perche region, in Paris, in the South of France…
The idea is to create a real meeting place for our work, which can also exist outside social networks: an ephemeral moment when our research, our recordings and our work come together locally: a step aside from our “news”.

Listen to excerpts: numbers 0 to 5, numbers 6 and 7, number 8, number 9.
In 2004, Pandore published a special issue of Pandore devoted to sound pieces by Juliette Fontaine.
