A piece from my album Vedute della Luna scritte in Braille has been broadcast on France Musique’s Electromania show by David Jisse, Christian Zanesi, Christophe Bourseiller. C’est magnifique! Thanks to Nephogram/Franz Rosati.
With Simone Pappalardo we designed and create the Otosimbionte installation, a feedback system with some computational elements, mostly based on DYI analog electronics. Otosimbionte keeps changing and singing while going.

On Jan 19th, I’ve been invited by Matteo Bordone and Fabrizia Brunati as a guest at Mu, broadcast by the Italian national radio, Rai Radio 2. We discussed about physical computing and I made a demo with Rumentarium. Big fun!
Here some pics by Fabrizia Brunati. Here the podcast.
The new Organised Sound issue dedicated to “Re-wiring electronic music” contains my article “Making Acoustic Computer Music: The Rumentarium project” that sums up four years of research with the Rumentarium setup. To be precise: Andrea Valle (2013). Making Acoustic Computer Music: The Rumentarium project. Organised Sound, 18, pp 242-254. doi:10.1017/S1355771813000216.
I’m starting a week dedicated to a new piece in collaboration with friend composer Mauro Lanza. On november 4th we will premiere “Regnum animale” for amplified string trio and electro-mechanical devices, a commission by Milano Musica, played by Repertorio 0 ensemble. Before that, on 29th evening some insights on the production at Galleria Lia Rumma, Milan.
I will present my digital reconstruction of Enore Zaffiri’s Musica per un anno in Lugano, at the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana, for Oggi musica, on Friday 11th October 2013. Happy to be able to propose again this relevant electronic work, between music and sound installation.
I’m happy to be in such a good company, with Agostino di Scipio and Federico Placidi on the album issued by Synesthesia recordings, Live at ‘O, that documents the concert we did in Dec 2012. It feature Dispacci dal fronte interno, for strings, printers and live notation. You can find it here. Thanks Matteo Milani and Federico Placidi of USO project.
I’ve finally put on line a video from the Trilobiti installation in Latina, for the festival “Le forme del suono” on may 24th. Shortly, trilobites is a population of radioclocks capable of sensing the acoustic environment and reacting to it. Here it is. Here a video from the amazing live gig with Simone Pappalardo and Franz Rosati at Circolo Hemingway in Latin the same evening. I’m using a live setup with radioclocks.
I’ve been invited to participate to TPA, Torino Performance Art festival. Which is not a music festival, so I was the only musicians: an interesting context. I’ve played live with the Trilobites project (radioclocks), writing.
I’ve been invited by Alessandro Sciaraffa to join other Turin-based artists in a radio project at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin. I played radioclocks by wrirting poems. The event was related to Alessandro’s exhibit. It has been an impressive event!
