BETTER LIVING THROUGH ACID > MONT ANALOGUE @Centre Pompidou - Paris


Better Living Through Circuitry is a 1999 documentary about the Electronic Dance and Rave movement of the 90's. It is the first such full-length film on the topic.
Lights shows, and in particular Laser shows, are linked to Rave culture, and their "Acid" way to draw curved lines, patterns and abstract shapes it's necessary to create artificial environments where electronic sounds can explode and have their translation into lights. Here starts a crucial feedback between sound and lights; here you have a sound and its double described by activated photons; here you have "Figure eight" ad libitum.

Better Living Through Acid is a video documentation of my first laser studies.

Waiting for my forthcoming "D U N N O" on Presto!? i decided to turn everything on gold.

Expected release date around the first week of september (maybe before). Trying to have it ready for Japanese Tour so i can carry some copies with me.

Marcus Schmickler is mastering it @Piethopraxis Studio. Really Excited.

2010 seems to be pretty busy with some new releases to be announced.

QUANTUM JELLY is an extension of the sound installation "Streaming Illusions".
Data used to construct the abstract acoustic space and its illusory peculiarity in the Chapel of Santa Maria dei Bulgari are reorganized in real-time into different perceptual parameters shifting the focus and the approach to a condition close to a live set.



The only light in the room was a powerful MAX/Msp controlled Stroboscopic light.

STREAMING ILLUSIONS - Four Channels Sound piece installation > Gemine Muse
Cappella di Santa Maria dei Bulgari - Archiginnasio, Bologna > opening May 19

L’intervento di Lorenzo Senni è un’installazione sonora progettata per la Cappella di Santa Maria dei Bulgari, luogo accessibile solamente in occasione delle esequie dei più eminenti professori universitari. Studiando le proprietà acustiche dell’ambiente, Streaming Illusions indaga le molteplici possibilità di comporre e tracciare lo spazio ridefinendolo, generando così una dimensiona alterata, regolata da nuovi canoni percettivi, che invita a considerare il suono nella sua più pura e astratta forma. Attraverso un lavoro molto preciso sul fenomeno delle riflessioni delle onde sonore, Lorenzo Senni si focalizza sulla riverberazione e sulle modalità con cui il suono decade, muore; si tratta in questo caso di una morte fredda, scientifica che, in quanto “programmata”, viene constatata senza rituali né cerimonie.

REMOTE CONTROL (WARS) w/Orthographe @INTEATROFEST - Polverigi (AN)

In their new project, Controllo remoto, Orthographe shows the mechanism of the war machine using all sorts of devices – from knocked together slide projectors to tracking spotlights and smoke machines. The first war pictures ever made, those of the American Civil War (1861 -1865), are poignant and due to their age also curiously magnificent. In contrast, the images from a night vision camera suggest computer games. But the casualties are real. How tangible can projections on smoke be? With no less heavy a subject than war, Orthographe plays a subtle game with the audience’s perception.

I did the soundtrack and the sound-design.

next: ROTTERDAM, ROMA, MODENA, MUNICH ...more dates soon

I got this piece of paper by Carl Michael Von Hausswolff and this is
means that i worked one week only on this frequency range (from 500Hz to 1000Hz)
composing my track for the final exhibition.

"ERINNERUNG" is a sound installation based on a mathematical system about prime numbers.

Just for one night you can listen our prime numbers score play inside the Ravenna's Planetarium while a researcher "play" the cosmos.

RAVENNA PLANETARIUM - 02/07/08 - h. 20 > 24

"ERINNERUNG" - Fondazione Mario Merz / TORINO

Erinnerung is a music listening project that lasts about one hour.
We have two sound tracks one after the other with a short break between the two: the first is about 30 minutes long and the second about 15. The performance is left to a computer connected to a sound sysyem.
Erinnerung consists in a sound transposition of a prime numbers series ordered by the multiples of the number six. It can be visualized as an infinite sequence formed by ordered pairs that differs in two units (5 and 7; 11 and 13; 17 and 19...). The characteristic of these pairs is to respectively precede and follow all the multiples of six. This infinite double series of numbers does not include only the prime numbers but also the products of multiplied prime numbers. Starting from the fourth pair (23 and 25) the prime numbers do not appear regularly as twin numbers but they come alone or they stay hidden for longer and longer intervals. Then they appear again as pairs or alone.
The sound transposition of this pattern consists in pointing out, inside this infinite series of pairs, the non-prime numbers that periodically repeat and that are associated to sine waves in the first composition and to glitches and rhythm impulses in the second; the sound pattern becomes the negative of a positive represented by the prime numbers associated to the empty space left by the sound interruption.
What has a sound and can be translated in a legible score performable countless times, are repetitions; for each prime number appearing after the first pair 5 and 7 infinite repetition exist with regular intervals of the respective multiples.
This procedure generates a score following the rules of a bizarre embroidery; the ornament unravels in an infinite series of broken and asymmetrical lines with a recurrent modulation. They zigzag between the two rows of twin numbers, joining in the same family the multiples of each prime number.
The development of these lines allows, from a mathematical point of view, to predict, inside this double series, the appearance of new prime numbers by exclusion of the multiples.
The scores of the two compositions come from the same numeric sequence and they follow in a geometric way the editing criterium. What varies is the length associated to the single note-sound.
The tracks are created by different frequencies or impulses associated to the recurrence of the first 19 prime numbers multiples. The superimposing of different frequencies creates a so called soundscape continuously expanding and condensing, open to abrupt rarefactions.
The score of erinnerung is virtual endless like the prime numbers series. The programming of the tracks can be generated and controlled by a MAX/MSP patch. In this way the sound diffusion can have a duration so long as days or weeks.
