Sonification: 4 Genetic Counterpoints. Polyphonic vocal synthesizd voices on gene sequence texts
Polyphonic vocal synthesizd voices on gene sequence texts
duration: 1’58’’ + 2’05’’ + 2’30’’ + 2’28’’
Year: 2009
Property, editor: author

re-new call for audio works on genoma sequences. I started from proposed text of genome sequences to compose 4 counterpoint using the synthesized voices of MacOs System, edited following simple rules of classic counterpoint: imitation, transposition, augmentation, inversions.

The four movements of this Suite are:
First performance: RE-New competition, May 2009

1-Canon a 3 - durata 1'59"

Ascolta/listen

2-Canon a 4 Inverse - durata 2'05"

Ascolta/listen

3-Canon a 4 Septima - durata 2'30"
