Diluted  Sounds, In a Sleeping Mood.


This my week-long musical collaboration with In a Sleeping Mood.

Everyday through 2013, the duo In a Sleeping Mood composed a short sound sketch and matched it with either a video, an image or a text. The result is an impressive set of 365 singular sonic moments. The group invited a range of artists to join them for a week-long collaboration each. These included: Maria Chiara Argiró, Jacopsen, Tommaso Stingo, Alex Kutumov, Flavio Buonerba, and Nicola Palanza.
