THEATRUM MEMORIAE
This sound-collage is an attempt to evocate the “Stimmung” of Gabriele D’Annunzio’s Prioria, his house in Gardone di Riviera (Villa Cargnacco), that was the major work of his late years, and in a certain sense of his life: a syncretistic “Gesamtkunstwerk”, an assemblage of (found) objects, images, musical instruments, books etc. A real “Theater of […]

ASNAMUS (Hommage to Sergei Parajanov)
The magic of collage. Great surrealistic polyphonies (almost kitsch and almost sacred), beyond traditional logic. Sergei Parajanov besides Kurt Schwitters, Giuseppe Zevola, Pierre Schaeffer and other eccentricities. Étrangeté…

What connects us, is the remembering of the Origin – of the continuum, to whom we belong. Remembering is to recognize the archetypes of reality. The sound of the “Androgynous“ (reconciliation of the opposites) […]
