PHONOCENE
PHONOCENE è una teros-narrazione in forma musicale che prende spunto dal simbolismo animale per immaginare nuovi ecosistemi sonori.
Che cosa significa pensare alla capacità del ragno di tessere tele, prima ancora di una trappola, come un’espressione di stile? O l’ec(h)o-localizzazione del daubentonia madagascariensis come una strategia percussiva più che evolutiva?
PHONOCENE è uno spazio che non vuole raccontare la musica che gli animali fanno, ma piuttosto quella che potrebbero fare.

Cerambycidae (also known as longicorns, due to their long antennae) is one of the largest families of beetles, containing about 38,000 described species. In most species of this family, adults possess a stridulatory device that allows them to produce nightmarishly squeaking sounds. Although some adults produce sounds during courtship and copulation, this sound production occurs mainly when individuals are disturbed, being considered a defensive mechanism that might act as a startle response against predators.

Tardigrades (Tardigrada) are a phylum of
eight-legged segmented micro-animals found in diverse regions of Earth's
biosphere. Tardigrades are able to survive extreme conditions – such as
exposure to extreme temperatures, extreme pressures (both high and low), air
deprivation, radiation, dehydration, starvation and life in outer space – that
would quickly kill other forms of life, making them the most resilient species
known to man. Tardigrades have been on Earth for about 600 million years having
survived all five mass extinction events, and it is thought they could be
around long after humanity has died out.
They would 100% survive the Apocalypse, or a harsh noise wall.

The Aye-aye (Daubentonia madagascariensis) is a lemur native to the island of Madagascar and the world's biggest nocturnal primate. The most unusual feature of the aye-aye is its extremely narrow middle finger, which it uses to tap on trees to find grubs under the bark. The aye-aye listens for echoes to find hollow areas in the trees, a method called percussive foraging, alongside with patterns of echolocation. Due to their odd and eerie appearance, aye-ayes are in many cultures commonly associated with death and illness.
