ReCoding Cloud – Festival 33,7
Filippo Zapponi (*IT, 1976)
ReCoding Cloud (2022) for youtuber/soloist and ensemble, recorded and broadcast on screen in the form of YouTube videos – 40’ World Premiere
Commissioned by United Instruments of Lucilin for the project 33,7 – Esch2022 European Capital of Culture
ReCoding Cloud is a cycle of seven compositions/performances for soloist/youtuber and ensemble, recorded and broadcast on screen in the form of YouTube videos. The videos are gathered on the YouTube channel ReCoding Cloud. The cycle is based on hybridisation, the creation of genetically modified musical organisms, fakes, (concealed) parody, double coding and re-coding. It is up to the listener/viewer to decode the compositions correctly, to grasp the hidden references, not to stop at appearances and not to be fooled by fakes.
