Starting from the study of scores by contemporary composers (Stockhausen, Xenakis, Nono, Ligeti etc etc etc.) the project involves the creation of two-dimensional and three-dimensional sound scores. The artist has created software through which it is possible to make any two-dimensional or three-dimensional drawing sound as long as it has been drawn in a vectorial manner. The same drawings were printed using a 3D printer (if three-dimensional) or by “traditional” printing on plexiglass supports (if two-dimensional). The different prints are assembled compositionally on a white panel where each print representing a sound event is supported by a tensile structure made with metal spacers and steel cables. The result is a graphic score that represents the sounds that are present in the audio composition that can be heard by framing the QR code that will be present under the caption of the work with your smartphone.
