The material for this work comes from a tape cassette that I found in a derelict empty house. The material consists of a series of recording-tests performed by the woman who used to live in the house. The title of the piece – my loss will be your gain – refers to the accidental discovery of the tape after years of abandonment and neglect.

The audio work documents the encounter between me and Paolo, two amateur singers that accidentally meet on the street at night time. After a short introduction, the encounter turns into a back to back chanting battle. The street becomes the stage of a spontaneous performance; the chants, a way to discover each other.

Magnifying My Sphere of Power is an audio work where I sing and play drums along with a selection of my favourite hard core punk songs. The work reflects on the power of music as an emotional inciter, an agitator that animates physical energy and one’s own desire to move and participate.

This is me singing along with the music that comes from my neighbour’s flat.
