Microsistema sonoro 2015, glass, water, waterproof speakers, iron, aluminium, multichannel audio system, composition

Inside a metal frame there are some different chemical glass ampoules. The ampoules are filled with water of different level. Within each ampoules there is a waterproof speaker. The played audio is digitally processed mixed with synthetic sounds, both organized in a composition. The composition is realized by exploiting the different sound propagation relative to the liquid level in the whole of each ampoule and according to resonances of the ampoules. The perceived timbre effect is therefore dictated by the different level of the fluids and the glass structures which have the function of sound filters. A kind of alchemical composition, dialogue between contemporary composition and physical principles.
