‘Passeggio Sonoro’ is typically performed in-situ via some multichannel loudspeaker set-up in holophonic or periphonic configuration and employing bespoke software coded by the artist. The available material is juxtaposed in time and space following a loosely pre-defined narrative and employing live-coding as well as real time hardware control. A studio stereo mixdown is provided below for demonstration purposes.
