Sink art
t’s an eco-statement that uses the psychedelia of the 70’s to deliver environmentalist messages through the ephemeral abstractness of shapes and colours taking place at random in the kitchen sink. Here again concept meets visual art: the amount of chemicals we see going down the plug in this video is the average used by a household in a month.

Transensory Vision – anatomy of a slide showHere photography meets video art celebrating the process of perception. The focus of this video is on its technical process as a concept in itself. The intention is to point out to the viewers that their own visual experience is more important then the object shown. What’s happening here it’s a long one way journey ‘object to brain’. It’s the journey of light defining the object, going through the lens of a photo-camera and impressing a film of a slide. A beam of light is then forced through the slide, goes through a lens and appears projected onto a screen. The image screened, being filmed, goes through another lens (directly or sometimes reflected by a convex mirror), is recorded onto the magnetic tape of a cam-coder, transferred into the memory of a computer, edited, burned onto a DVD, read by a laser, processed by a software and finally appears onto the screen of the computer or TV. It’s now ready to be absorbed by the viewer’s eyes, sent to the brain through the optic nerve and finally recognised (or not) as a known image. The content of the video is designed to trigger multisensory suggestions attempting to create the corrispondence between senses described by the title.

Abstract Tar
This is not art, it’s Dhyano’s brother’s extremely hard job: the insulation of terraces with a tar-based coat. The statement, as the photography, is provoking evidence that ready-made abstract objects are everywhere so what is the point in creating them?
The cutting and melted rectangular piece has not being created as art, it’s an honest functional patch to seal an accidental cut in the coat. It may however be conceived as a strong reference to the highly influential art of Burri and Fontana. The soundtrack it’s an installation called ‘Tar and feather’ and can be used independently from the images. Flutes played by Dhyano. |

IL PIANTO DELLA SCAVATRICE
|
I am introducing today a new series of video readings
with sound art from the City Lights pocket poets series n.41.
I am particularly fond of this publication (I urge you
to buy it here) in this particular moment because it's
a tribute to Ferlinghetti who left his body few weeks ago.
This piece is entirely produced by myself including, filming
editing sound/music and titles.
