a Torino
Vladislav Delay costruirà il soundscape per l'inaugurazione della Luce d'Artista di piazza Vittorio. In sintonia con lo stato d'animo di “Whistleblower” (Huume, 2007), il più recente album con questo pseudonimo, ci aspettiamo un suono pacato e meditabondo, dove il fascino di atmosfere buie e architetture in penombra viene singolarmente e inaspettatamente illuminato da ritmi e anti-ritmi, distruttivi e rigeneranti, in vitale contrasto.

SPORTIVE by Addictive TV
The installation Sportive by Addictive TV dynamically explores movement and sound in a wide range of sports, evolving the action of the fast and furious sporting forms being sampled, into shifting new musical patterns of rhythmic audio and video.
With huge thanks to Adidas, Sportive was created using entirely the sounds and images of sports with only the addition of a human heartbeat. The installation is also available as a video piece on the Talents "Art & Sport" DVD, produced by Talents - the Art Video Collection - www.talentsvideo.com/en/issues/talents_performances
The Shanghai Grand Opening of "Gongzhen - Sport in Art" will take place on November 9th 2007 at the Museum of Contemporary Art.
