2021 - 2022 / ongoing

SENSATION is a podcast on Radio Poush exploring ultra contemporary art with a multisensorial and interdisciplinary approach. It focuses on our mutating world, the relationships between technology and the living, as well as scientific and philosophical findings.
Each episode is a sensorial portrait of our guests: artists, curators and researchers, who have close interests and sensibilities to our own curatorial fields of research.

The discussion is punctuated by explorations of our senses through:
- the consumption of food and beverages selected by CRO, as to echo the artistic approach of our guests
- the listening of non-verbal sounds selected by our guests
- the narration of anecdotes related to the touch
