Hypomnemas from Melancholy Memory for piano, video and 5.1 sound (2017)
The Hypømnema is a strategy of audiovisual production. It proposes the composition of a sound piece built from the act of remembrance, subjected to its subsequent translation into images by a visual artist. Through the production and research processes, the implication of the individual and collective perceptual phenomenon was explored. In which the following questions were made: How do we perceive image and sound? is it possible to prioritize one of our senses? How can a sound stimulus be translated into a visual object?
