I started designing live music actions performed by musicians improvising/interpreting/interpolating live tape-music and soundscapes/soundmarks flows - see examples in TIMET's cds "Cicli di Sintesi", "Quadri di Schermo Vivo", "Colazione con la Pietra". 1992-1997.

I then went into exploring non-linear music behaviors, meta-organized by synthetical inter-languages: intra-musical (sound gestures conducting live music actions - i.e. BUTTERFLY: live conductor, Composer Ikue Mori) or extra-musical (graphical or choreographic performs conducting live musicians' behaviors - i.e. PARTITURA VIVA: live conductor, Choreographer Raffaella Giordano/Sosta Palmizi). 1995-1999.

Simultaneously I tended to substitute real musicians/players with radical editing of freeform "sample music " articulations - i.e. Timet's cds "La via Negativa", "Shadows", 1996-1999.

Then I virtualized musician-musician and musician-samples interplays, strengthening even more the attempt of concentrating in a given time-music unity - a song-form generated by a poem or by a philosophical sentence - the complexity generated by such interplays - i.e. Timet's cds "Carne Capitata" and "Zarathustra" 2000-2001.

I had the chance to experiment how a sound-based dynamic space design and the living experience of an architectural space could naturalize complex music forms and the infinite richness of music heritages - i.e. "Klangturm project", "Ospite Ingrato" installation, 2001-2003.

This was a turning point. I needed to deal with acoustically less predictable sound emitters, able to variously interact with architecture and its dimensional and material features. I started to prototype environmental and architectural sound modules (with a strong commitment to landscape design) and a related wide sound and music design - here there are the Giardino Sonoro years and its many developments and projects, 2004-2007.

Then I developed a full sound experience design fundamentals, in order to virtualize and multiply through a dynamic sound symbolic experience, the material perception itself of the architectural space - I founded Sound and Experience Design, in Krakow and Berlin. 2007-2008.

It was the time for a deep and electro-acoustically well grounded architectural sound system, able to be highly spatial and expressive, synthesizing the Giardino Sonoro and the Sound and Experience Design skills in a new generation of spatial/environmental sound modules. We founded - with Lorenzo Coppini of B&C Speakers - Architettura Sonora, Applied Acoustics, a division of B&C Speakers, 2009-2012.

Adaptive sound space design is my/our main current goal. See ASG and AMM projects inside the Architettura Sonora website.
