Based on clinical experiments, we once again question the bond between an autistic child and the voice. We defend that the body and language resonate based on tone, the real dimension of a “sonorous” voice. Mechanical voices, artificial voices and musical sentences are used by autistic children to play with this dimension of tone, allowing for an opening towards language. Thus, identifying a child’s possibilities concerning resonance offers a new clinical perspective.
