Thursday 12 October 2023 at 10 pm in Bologna for the Fall re-opening of Raum, Condylura presents in collaboration with Xing MUSICA ANALFABETA, a performance by Jacopo Benassi with Daniela Cattivelli and Pasquale Savignano, for the release launch of Condylura07.

MUSICA ANALFABETA (Illiterate Music) at Raum is a live performance, a programmatic action that implements Jacopo Benassi’s performative experimentation as a tool to widen his photographic practice (in the past two years he has created new situations of sound and live shooting, centered on a self-ostensive gesture). MUSICA ANALFABETA stems precisely from the urge to probe the liveness of the event and the audience, galvanizing its presence, and phisycally exposing himself to it. With the involvement of the sound-makers Daniela Cattivelli and Pasquale Savignano, Benassi transforms Raum's spaces into a crowded arena, where the audience's body is acted upon and, in turn, acts out. A storm of flashes and sounds, hurled by cameras arranged in the space and trained by the artist, but also entrusted to the direct usage of the participants. The performance is directed by a trumpet/camera, which moves with Benassi, yet plays and photographs autonomously like an organ endowed with a life of its own, and by the interventions of the invited musicians with live electronics and other devices, conditioned by a ‘score’ of that collective body, fragmented and incidental.
