Intonarumori · L'Arte dei Rumori

Russolo catalogued six families of noise in 1913. A century later the catalog is incomplete — his machines never heard a jet engine, a crowd of ten thousand, a radio dial sweeping ghost stations. This instrument keeps his six and adds six more: Sirens, Electrical, Granular, Motors, Crowd, Radio. Twelve noise-machines total, each synthesized from first principles. Hold a family as a drone, fire a single gesture, or build a piece on the sequencer. Drop an image and its structure — mass, drift, void, orientation — composes the orchestra automatically. The strip at the bottom is the immagine di rumore: the combined output turned back into image.
