Fusion is a collaboration with Tuomas Tuomiranta, who created the animation using Processing. Real-time data from the animation was sent to Max via OSC, where I generated the sound using that data. I produced several audio interpretations and composed the final sound design from these renders to match and enhance the animation’s dynamic flow.

The foundation of the soundtrack is derived from the actual colors and their frequencies, translated directly into sound. Additionally, the evolving properties of the animation elements were used to modulate and shape the audio, creating a seamless integration between image and sound.

Shortly after our collaboration began, an opportunity arose to exhibit the piece. Fusion premiered at Flash Vallisaari on September 21, 2018.

The visuals of the NAPOLI film were translated into sound, forming the foundation for both the musical composition and sound design. A poem recited by lead actor Pasquale se Fabbio was converted into musical notation and used as the basis for the main melody.

Seppo Renvall is a pioneer in Finnish experimental film. He works mainly with film and video, but hid artistic output also includes photography, installations and happenings. His films are characterised by an abstract imagery in black and white and a non-narrative structure that often focuses on the apparently commonplace and everyday.

I consider myself fortunate to have collaborated with him on the film, which premiered on May 11, 2017.
