    • TRK. Sound Club curated by PHASE – 27 October [CANCELLED]
    HYPERSKATE Dj Balli featuring Nicolò Masiero Sgrinzatto & Luca Maccioni

    October’s appointment with TRK. Sound Club, curated by thePHASE collective, is dedicated to the artistic research of musician, DJ, record producer, and writer Riccardo Balli (a.k.a. DJ Balli), from Bologna.
    Along with Nicolò Masiero Sgrinzatto and Luca Maccioni, DJ Balli will present the HYPERSKATE performance at the Frittelli Arte Contemporanea gallery. This performance originates from the performative project titled In SkateBored We Noize! (2007).
    HYPERSKATE is a hybrid multimedia performance that brings many different elements into play: industrial conveyor belts, skateboards and skaters, lights, sensors, sounds, and a mixer that processes the sound results produced within the gallery space by the various actions. HYPERSKATE is a microscope that magnifies the noise of the boards, used for skating tricks or for personal transport, travelling at different speeds and thus always creating new sounds. The HYPERSKATE performance sees skateboarding as a bringer of development and horizontal participation, an action of temporary urban regeneration and, in the skaters’ performance, an intentional/unintentional echo-performative exercise.
    To open the concert, Riccardo Balli will introduce the HYPERSKATE project and, more generally, the theme of skateboarding as a “sound footprint” of the urban metropolis.

    • TRK. Sound Club curated by Ambient Noise Session – 12 November [CANCELLED]
    Giulia Deval – Terrapolis
    Devid Ciampalini – Sorgente

    Giulia Deval (1993) works in the field of multimedia and voice. Her research, close to the idea of fictioning, i.e. a set of practices connected to fiction and writing used by visual artists, operates in a hybrid territory halfway between sound experimentation and writing, and between performance and live sets. For this occasion she is presenting Terrapolis, her new work due for release by Ambient Noise Session. Inspired by the book Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene (Experimental Futures) by Donna J. Haraway (Duke University Press Books, 2016; It. ed. Chthulucene. Sopravvivere su un pianeta infetto, Nero Editions, 2016), Terrapolis is an immersion through organic, analogue, and digital sounds which is seamless but with well-defined moments, drawn from the images presented in the book and from new points of interest, along with a dedication to Native American activist Leonard Peltier. •• Devid Ciampalini (1988) is a musician and composer, and a founder of the Ambient Noise Session collective. His research is related to improvisation and composition of electronic music, which he creates using synthesizers, field recordings, and magnetic tape. His work lies on the border between kosmische musik and musique concrète. Between 2011 and 2016 he has performed in various ensembles, such as Metzengerstein, Holy Hole, and Flocculi, releasing albums and performing live throughout Europe. He is currently part of the New Jooklo Age trio, formed with Jooklo Duo, and is pursuing his solo project named Luce Celestiale. For TRK. Sound Club he is presenting Sorgente, his solo recording debut to be released by the Canti Magnetici label, curated by Donato Epiro.

    The 2020 edition of experimental music event series TRK. Sound Club has joined the Aundici integration project, created by Tempo Reale in collaboration with other initiatives that promote experimental music in Tuscany. The event in March, curated by Tempo Reale, opens with a conversation with composer David Toop, in collaboration with the University of Florence’s PhD in History of Arts and Entertainment, and continues with another double concert: electronic musician Andrej Cebski will present three works constructed over the tempo and the gestures that make up the perfection of sound. Immediately afterwards, sound artist Rie Nakajima and David Toop will present the results of their artistic collaboration which explores – and confuses – the boundaries of sound and space, time and nature, recreating unpredictable sonic and visual settings.
