Performing presentation of the CD - Let Sfinge

Double Room Gallery - Visual Arts Trieste

Let Sfinge (The Flight of the Sphinx) is a sound and visual poem about the Sphinx’s epic journey to the omnipresent world of its dreams. The Sphinx flies there as a keeper of knowledge in order to find out the essence of its intimate truth.

The monumental-trans sound story is placed in a spherical structure, which represents on a grand scale the Sphinx’s mental membrane. The performer, as a vocal sculpture, generates graphical images through his brain activity. These pictures are projected onto the screens of the vault during the performance.

Let Sfinge is an archaic-futuristic prototype of the visual manifestation of sound vibrations, which translate the deepest inner self directly into images on the screen of the cerebral vault.

The Flight of the Sphinx is a complex multimedia project developed by artists from different parts of Europe over a span of three years.

The project was initiated by Intimate Notions’ Dream & Raj Per Tot, a Slovenian-Italian multimedia artist.

The musical part of the project was realised in Barcelona and in Sveto (Slovenia) between 2010 and 2012 by Raj Kraljev and the Italian composer Riccardo Massari Spiritini, living in Barcelona.

Raj Kraljev wrote the original melodies and lyrics in different languages: English, Slovene, Italian, Spanish and Catalan, according to the spirit of international identity and the universal message of the project.

In spring 2013, the vocals were recorded in Barcelona and the final mix was completed by Riccardo Massari Spiritini and Carlos Sedeño.

The final sound mastering for the CD and vinyl was done in summer 2013 in Ljubljana by Sašo Kalan.

Videoprojection and mental images realized in autumn 2013 in Trieste by Antonio Giacomin - Fluido.it.

MODULAR MOBILITY  by Intimate Notions' Dream

Mobile modul as an articulated being in motion

Modular mobility is a system or a way of reading different psychophysial levels that a mutating personality is composed of. These states are undefiningly connected at different stages of our identity.

The artistic act is a story about the leap in consciousness and as such an exactly defined confession of our personality. By tracking the brain impulses, concentration, focus, meditation, body movements, emotional implication and other mental or emotional states during the performing act, we show a synchronised image of the performer's integrity. In this way we try to unveil the integrity and the essence of the psychophysical character of the personality as a specific concetrate of the whole.

A specific concentrate is a symptom of an error in the system. This is not a negative element, it is an exact record and a carrier of a precisely defined deviation from the entirety.

Oneness as a result of everything doesn't have a recognisable identity, that is why it splits in two, three or in inumerous parts to become a recognisable fact. This splitting triggers the movement of mutating units which come to life in a ceaseless embodiments of different expressive forms. Each of these entities is an independent subject that has to live out the specificity of its concentrate.

The perfection has therefore nothing to do with the awareness of an imaginary wholness. The perfection is a synchronisation of the being with the symptom of its specific error. Each being is an individual product of the truth in motion and, as a specific concentrate of the whole, it is unique and perfect only in the essence of its own identity.
