"Soniche Visioni Olografiche” is a project born in memory of the exceptionally talented pianist Bodgan Zins. The idea starts from the description of the ecstasy that the pianist felt when he played, of that euphoria that even in a moment of immense degenerative madness, of immense ugliness or that of the Holocaust period could give him a moment of pure beauty. The work speaks of his unmanageable desire to play during his period of confinement within the containment center of Campagna and therefore of his morbid and insatiable relationship with music. The project was carried out using holographic projectors (designed and printed using a 3D resin printer by the artist) that adopt a still experimental technique, a technique that the artist created together with a research group (with whom he collaborates in a startup technological). Thanks to this innovative technique, the installation is equipped with three projectors that give the holographic optical illusion that allows you to perceive the three instruments: a piano, a cello and a violin floating in the air in front of the projectors while the first movement is played. of the Composition n. 32 in D minor by Anton Arensky, which is one of the compositions to which Zins was particularly fond of and which he performed during his internment period. The instruments rotate in the ether while their colors become iridescent and their shapes are modified according to Arensky's composition to somehow become "augmented instruments" or idyllic transfigurations, a symbol of Zins' love for music.
