As the part of a residential programme Open Studio, experimental musician Andro Giunio is going to
present a segment of his work currently in the process of making, in a form of sound installation
made of Walkmans, cassettes and modified audio tapes. Different loops, samples and delay effects
are products of the research in the medium of an audio cassette, which artist is going to continue in
the following weeks of his residence in the gallery. Audio recordings on sound tapes are sequences
recorded live on electronic baritone guitar in the space of gallery „Miroslav Kraljević“ between 19th
and 26th February. Noise, irregularities, distortions and other specific nusproducts of using the lo-fi
medium such as audio cassettes entice a closer relation between the music and its surroundings,
and in turn presents recordings immanence in time and space. Possibility of forming new musical
compositions is enabled by manipulation of existing recorded materials, and audio cassette as lo-fi
technology becomes a kind of materialized memory.
Next Open Door are going to be held on 10th March at 19h, and on 17th March, the last day of Open
Studio programme, the artist will stage a musical performance.
Open studio is supported by the Ministry of culture of Republic of Croatia and City of Zagreb.
GMK program is supported by Kultura Nova Foundation.
