In sound, the concept of “partial” refers to any of the simple waves of which a complex tone is composed. Each of this partials can be harmonic -its frequency is an integer ratio of the root partial- or inharmonic, and the particular configuration of partials in a complex sound will lead to different timbres, from smooth musical sonorities to harsh noises.
In this work, Playmodes transforms the facade of the Duomo in an architectural sound design device. The horizontal white strips of the building act as placeholders for the visualization of sound, in an exercise of architectural sonification and procedural graphics generated through hand-made coding tools.

“Widespread and threatening action to the detriment of individual or social integrity.”
Infectio, by the Modenese group, is the visual interpretation of the phases in which the system, once infected, adapts and changes, from the entry of the infection to the overload of information. The infection changes, grows and many times it is not the one to fight. But what feeds it.

AreaOdeon collective revisits the concept looking for a new metric made up of graphic and musical triplets that decline a perception of space and time, in a rhythmic composition of geometries, sounds and colors, regulated by constantly repeated segments. An obsessive generation of stanzas that progressively brings the story into the volumes of architecture, in an interweaving of elements that gives life to a visual poem.

Young pupils of elementary and middle schools reinterpret the facade with their imagination. The contents developed by them during a workshop become the protagonists of the projections in a dynamic show.
The intervention involves the middle schools of the Raiberti plexus of Monza, the Baby College and Junior College Bilingual Schools of Monza and Seregno and some middle schools in New Mexico (USA) thanks to the collaboration with STEMarts Lab.
