MIX SERIES: #14 Pier Alfeo

Mix 14 comes from Italian composer and sound artist Pier Alfeo. A beautiful and eclectic mix of textured sounds from across the spectrum of electronic music.

​

Through his artistic practice, Pier Alfeo investigates cognitive and pathological problems caused by the intense relationship between human beings and automation systems in contemporary societies. His multimedia installations, sound sculptures and electronic musical compositions put the repetitiveness of mechanical-algorithmic automation systems under tension with the unpredictability of chaos. In this way, the rigid regularity of serial systems is interrupted and deconstruct from the inside, generating new configurations of meaning. Within these processes, sound acts in an organic way as a destabilizing and healing element at the same time, emerging with its irregular expressiveness.

​

Pier Alfeo is a composer and sound artist working with electronic music pieces, immersive audiovisual performance, sound sculptures and visual works related to sound agency. After living in many cities in Italy, he moved to Berlin where he acquired a wide recognition as a music performer by collaborating for various record labels, organizing events and performing at International events and festivals across the European countries and outside, such as Italy, France, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, Cyprus, Serbia, Ukraine, Czech Republic and Kenya; sharing the stage with artists such as Robert Henke, Fennesz, Rashad Becker and many others.
