Che donne! Live Sonorization at the Musei Reali

On Friday, August 28, I curated the electronic live sonorization for “Che donne!”, a silent film screening as part of Torino Crocevia di Sonorità, in collaboration with the workshop “Comunicare il cinema. Progettare il suono del film muto” (Department of Humanities — Communication Sciences and DAMS degree programs, University of Turin) and SMET — School of Electronic Music at the Turin Conservatory.
