The project tends to take possession of the extraordinary technical and musical capacity of one of the most recognized musicians in the world, Paolo Fresu, to bend them to the acoustic-visual expressions of contemporary art. I presented some of my verbal suggestions to Paolo and asked him to make them healthy and I let him improvise as much as possible. The sound performances, once recorded, were subsequently analyzed and processed thanks to a series of genetic and complex algorithms that returned sound material that was subsequently assembled into an electroacoustic composition. The composition is reproduced by an electroacoustic trumpet inserted through a system created ad hoc in a brass trumpet. In this way the recording is reproduced by the instrument that generated it, acquiring all the structural resonances giving a very natural sound.
