Venusia spatial electroacoustic musical theatre for actors, voices, instruments, live electronics and ... light A theatrical sonic journey inspired by and dedicated to the city of Venice and its lagoon. The performance takes the audience through a number of sonic and musical scenarios, as if it was wandering through an imaginary Venice. Along the way one might catch elements of the Venetian tradition and culture, past and present, glimpses of Commedia dell’Arte and references to Luigi Nono and the Venetian ‘spatial’ music of the XVI and XVII centuries. Venusia combines music and theatre into a single expressive form, using the actors’ movements to generate and control parameters of sound including pitch, volume, spatial position and motion in a 3D surround sound setup. The mapping technology, developed by Andrea Santini in collaboration with Dave Hunt and Middlesex University, London, allows to map physical gesture and translate it into ‘sound gestures’, capable of creating a spectacular and immersive sound dramaturgy.
