23-24/05/13 Le forme del suono

exhibition, LiveStuff, Music, MusicalInformatics, SeminarsAndWorkshops

I will be at “Le forme del suono” festival in Latina on 23-24 holding a SuperCollider crash course. I will also present the “Trilobiti” installation:

A population of 8 radioclocks, each one listening to the surrounding environment. When a sound is detected, each radioclock starts emitting a pattern deriving from the letters composing the word “telegraph”, translated into Morse code. Both listening and emitting happen through radioclock’s loudpspeakers.

To be premiered on May 24th, the day when Morse sent the sentence “What hath God wrought”.

A feedback system, you know when trilobites start singing, but not when they stop.

On 24 I’ll be with Simone Pappalardo and Franz Rosati for a gig at Circolo Hemingway, Latina.

Padua: on Poème électronique

SeminarsAndWorkshops

On April 19th, 2013 I’ve been invited in Padua by the local Association of Engineers to speak about Poème électronique, and Xenakis’ role and aesthetics. It was a nice day, with a very interested audience. The meeting was inserted into a series named “The cultivated soul of the engineer”.

18-20/3/13 Nic Collins’ Workshop at CIRMA

As CIRMA I’m co-organising with SMET (School of Electronic Music, Turin) a workshop with Nic Collins, with final concert. Hail hardware hacking! Some pics are collected here

Rumentario autoedule

exhibition, Multimedia, Music, MusicalInformatics, SeminarsAndWorkshops

I’ve added on Vimeo a short video of the “Rumentario autoedule” installed in Como for Elettrosensi 2012.

Rumentario autoedule

In the “Rumentario autoedule” installation the Rumentarium electro-mechanical ensemble, made up of 24 acoustic generators, is coupled with audio analysis capabilities. Two mics capture the surrounding soundscape.
Retrieved pitch and loudness profiles are used to drive the orchestra. As the soundscape around is mostly (even if not only) made up of the same rumentarium, the latter reacts to itself.

Elettrosensi in Como

exhibition, Multimedia, Music, MusicalInformatics, SeminarsAndWorkshops

I’m very happy to be invited to hold on Jan 18/19 2012 a couple of seminars at the Conservatory of Como, for the Elettrosensi cycle of this year. I will speak about audio physical computing, mainly showing a bunch of computationally animated rubbish. The “Rumentario autoedule” installation is included.

I’m honored to be invited at the next Generazioni elettroniche meeting in Gorizia on Nov 3rd 2011. I will speak about audio physical computing and presenting an installation that at the moment is still hyperuranic.

Workshops in Aosta

Thanks to Salvatore Livecchi, I held two workshops in Aosta, dedicated to Rumentarium on April 18th and on May 2nd to Sound Design (with Paolo Armao). Big fun!

On 9-10 May 2011 I’ll give a free SuperCollider workshop here in Turin, at Lab Quazza, University of Turin. Just drop me a line if interested.

Sound and Image conference in Turin

On Oct 28th 2010 I should be ubiquitous as I will present also a communication dedicated to audible domain in the Universal horror talkies at the Sound and Image conference in Turin, this year dedicated to “sound and genre“. Luckily, the first author is Luca Canova, and he will present our work.
