On the occasion of the performance Speaking Cables, presented during FOG 2024, we host a conversation with Agnese Banti – sound artist, musician, and overtone singer – to delve into her compositional research consisting of monologues, choirs, dialogues, and silences that construct and deconstruct space. The talk will be moderated by Maddalena Giovannelli (Stratagemmi) and Damiano Pellegrino (Altre Velocità), the author of an article on Agnese Banti's work in the latest issue of the magazine "La Falena."
