"Odissea canto 6: Nausicaa" - live @ Nuovo Teatro delle Commedie 26 feb 2005 - Livorno, Italy (excerpt)
Made using a voice reading the 6th book of the Odissea as the only sound source and feeding a granulator, a couple of loopers and a karplus strong resonator with it. Again trying to explore the human voice, this time more in a "musical" way. All Pure Data.

"I have a dream" - live @ fuoricentro 22 and 23 Gen 2005 - Livorno, Italy
this is a live laptop performance. every single sound comes from FFT anal and resynth of Reverend King's famous words. I coded a simple GUI application with CSoundAV to control position, pitch and each formant's volume. the intent is to exalt emotions latent in every fragment of sound of every word.
