Gastrophonique: Sound-of-Food MP3s

“Le Menu Gastrophonique” is a series of podcasts recorded in and about kitchens. The concern of “Gastrophonique” is, according to its recordists, “the sounds of food, digestion, excretion.” Produced by Coraline Janvier, there have been 10 episodes thus far, though only the first two appear to have popped up on the Resonance FM RSS feed (more info at papier.brouillon.free.fr). The first had all the clanking and frying of a visit to an Indian market, followed by the making of pakoras (MP3), and the second celebrates the random noises of the kitchen, as if — notes the posting — concrete legend Pierre Schaeffer were a cook (MP3).
