Nocturne info -
Is meant to be a multimediaproject, an audio/visual experience, an experiment in creating aconnection between two forms of communication. Having started to shoot these photographs drawing constant inspiration from electronic music as an audio source bound to influence my perception of what surrounds me,I started to consider the idea to melt two medias together in one single project, like a sum of the various parts involved. As a result,I considered the possibility to get in touch with a certain number of artists whose music suits my photographic style properly, in terms of recreating via audio the feeling that my images evoke by watching them. The following paragraph has been included to explain better my photographic research/vision:

The Photographs -
I chose photography to represent a feeling, or rather, some strictly human sensations, even though what is immediate is the close to the total lack of people in this project. This absence, the continuous search for empty spaces, and my self imposed isolation make these photographs so human. Space becomes the main protagonist character; it embodies and reflects such human conditions, resulting in the humanisation of space, one of my goals. Taking pictures at night time is another important factor: during day time, any places are crowded ,but when night falls the urban element replaces the human one with its unusual geometry and its countless details highlighted by the spectralglow of neon lights. This is the reason why I overload some elements with colours the eyes fail to perceive in real life, despite their importance: they make reality unreal and the ordinary extraordinary without forgetting the intimacy of the moment, framed in a single shot.

The Soundtrack -
Each artist supplied a track according to the photographs they received; all of the afore-mentioned tracks were collected in the audio cd that comes along with the book, working as a soundtrack to the book itself.
