desmodrone/performance by michele spanghero
desmodrone – performance by michele spanghero held in 2011 at sass muss.
Saturday 16 october The Schiara Building in Sass Muss hosted the performance Desmodrone by Michele Spanghero.
The Double Bass is played here without using the hands. The artists wanted to show us that is possible to use the wood and the strings without touching them direclty. He only used the medium in which the sound propagates: the air.
A synthetic sound of some heightened sine waves excite the air that make the instrument play. The vibrations of the echoing double bass become a sort of an acoustic signal that naturally tends to overlap with the initial sound. This kind of “duet” lead to the Larsen effect.
By using the computer, the artist act like an orchestra leader checking and modulating the sounds in real time.
