Andro Giunio: Pneumaphone

The segment of the work based on field recordings includes the documentation of sound fragments of the port ecosystem: the space of the Rijeka port as a hub of exchange and communication between people, machines and nature – life above and below the surface of the sea. The second segment is based on the research of (DIY) crafted wind instruments that act as acoustic conductors and resonators, physical structures that direct air flows and shape the behaviour of sound waves within a defined volume. The live performance is a synthesis of all these segments in an attempt to shape a sound landscape between the real and the imaginary, between the memory of space and its sonic reinterpretation. The work continues on previous projects of research on wind instruments and electroacoustic composition through the manipulation of field recordings (“Off Gamut”, 2025, “Three Streams – Sound Psychogeography for Črnomerec”, 2025).
