One of the great challenges of performing electronic music is that the vibrating part of the instrument is the PA system. So without immediate proprioceptive feedback, how can the performance of electronic music be truly tactile? This question has preoccupied instrument designers from Theremin and Don Buchla to….well….international magicians of electronic musical instrument and interface design Passepartout Duo (Nicoletta Favari and Christopher Salvito).
Join the first in our Mess in Conversation series where Mess co-founder (and long time dabbler in problems of electronic music performance) Robin Fox hosts an in-depth discussion with these extraordinary artists including a deep dive on the amazing Chromaplane designed by the pair in collaboration with Koma Elektronik.
