Rodolphe Macabéo
Artist Bio
Rodolphe Macabéo is a sound artist who explores the musical potential of living organisms.
After four years as a composer at an immersive studio in Paris, he positions his research at the forefront of musical innovation, blending generative systems, spatial composition, and field recordings.
Through experimental listening devices—such as stethophones, ultrasonic sensors, and electromagnetic transducers—he captures the hidden vibrations of reality, revealing the bioacoustic dimension of plants. His meticulous attention to sonic detail is rooted in a deep melodic sensitivity, crystallized in his eco-poetic album De la nature des choses (December 2025).
Rodolphe Macabéo’s practice often extends to collaborations and immersive installations. His sound works, developed within the immersive studio, have been presented internationally at the Ludwig Museum in Budapest, UCCA Labs, and the Boxes Art Museum in China between 2021 and 2024. As an independent sound artist, his works have been showcased at the Palais de Chaillot and Le Houloc in France, the RIXC Gallery in Riga, CutOutFest! in Mexico, Bogoshorts in Bogotá between 2024 and 2025, as well as at the Grand Palais in Paris and in Dubai in 2026.
