Vision
Dissonanze is a platform driven by research, cross-pollination and expressive freedom, designed to create radical connections between sound, technology and urban space.
Masterclass
Festival workshop dedicated to children (0–12 years) to discover sound through play, listening and experimentation.
Sound exploration: Hands-on activities using voice, body, objects and intuitive instruments to explore sound creation and transformation.
Creative output: Production of short soundscapes and simple audio exercises as the outcome of the workshop experience.
90-minute masterclass introducing children to the basic functions of the software.
The software’s capabilities will be explored through a visually immersive installation within a dedicated room.
Exhibition
In parallel with the festival, Dissonanze is featured in an exhibition dedicated to the relationship between sound, visual arts and exhibition space at MACRO — Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome. Installed across the two historic rooms on the museum’s second floor, the event brings together professionals, scholars, artists and cultural operators connected to the festival’s legacy, as well as individuals whose work has been shaped by that heritage.
