      Daniele Puppi


      Born in Pordenone in 1970, lives and works in Rome, he is among the most interesting Italian artists of his generation. The technologies normally used (video projectors, synchronizers, amplifiers, subwoofers, loudspeakers, microphones) function as activators and amplifiers of the perceptual abilities of the spectators, mainly visual and auditory. The viewer, as an integral part of the work, is called to enter a new alienating spatial-sensory dimension.

      ChDH Collective


      The chdh collective studies image/sound relationships by creating visual and audio algorithmic synthesizers. They mainly use these audiovisual instruments in live performances. Using equations that describe natural mechanisms, they generate abstract choreographies of particles whose minimalist matter reveals underlying structures of great complexity, formed by strange organic attractors. In search of a synesthetic radicality, his hypnotic performances work on joint movements between image and sound and belong as much to experimental cinema as to improvised music in the way they are performed.

      santiago echeverry


      Santiago Echeverry has dedicated himself to exploring the possibilities of volumetry in relation to the still image and digital video, in a work strongly connected to the problems of the LGBTQ+ communities. With a guerrilla video aesthetic, thanks to the portability of the Kinect sensor, and its possibilities in non-ideal lighting conditions, Echeverry has captured the spaces and stories of a whole series of characters who struggle to express their identity in complex sociopolitical conditions, due to to the resurgence and strengthening of the extreme right in the world.
