Fabrizio Saiu is a mover, performer and percussionist active in the field of experimental music and performance. His research centres on organized actions that blend together practices of bodily movement such as art du déplacement and free running, with procedures for sound production and active sound listening, and interaction with the environment through the use of analog and electronic technologies. He is a teacher of Sound Space Design and Performance Techniques at the Accademia di Belle Arti SantaGiulia in Brescia.

Peripatetiche dell’ascolto is a journey that combines walking, microphone recording and headphone listening into a single experience of exploring and discovering the sonic environment. The use of ear prosthetics, microphones and headphones allows explorers to revitalize a mediated and conscious listening experience; microphone recording allows to cross the threshold of the audible and navigate the boundaries between proximity and distance to a sound event; headphone listening enables the creation of a shared acoustic environment and a common area of intervention, a place for action and collective listening.

Peripatetiche dell’ascolto is an opportunity to share individual and collective practices and to experiment a conscious use of listening techniques relating to bodily movement in space and sound managing in time.
