LINE_102

Multitemporal Design is part of a series of studies exploring the ability of our brain to perceive time. We are taught that time in music flows in one stream, but what if we would write music with two different times flowing together? Two different beats per minute overlapping in the same piece? In this particular instalment we decided to start from the ground up, to imagine and build instruments that would themselves resonate and self oscillate at different speeds. Impossible devices, made with metallic spheres weighting a tonne, hitting 100 meters long strings, till gravity concedes. Humans cannot yet play a multitempo with sufficient precision, but will our brain still be able to decode this paradigm shift?

Valerio Camporini F. has worked on a wide spectrum in the music and sound field. He ran a record label in London, worked for Dolby Labs in the game industry, performed concerts, created installations and interactive cabarets in various corners of the world. He also writes soundtracks and soundscapes for indipendent movies, something that has granted him a prize for best soundtrack at the 73rd Venice Film Festival. An analysis of his multitemporal works is about to be published in a book, together with pieces from Ligeti, Stockhausen and Nancarrow among others.
