An octophonic performance realized on September 7, 2011 for Dolomiti Contemporanee, an improvised concert for technological apparatuses and insects: through the use of Diachronic, an innovative software conceived and produced by the artist. A dialogue opens with the crickets selected and microphone-controlled in their boxes placed inside a deserted industrial area of the Dolomites, staging a vision of continuity between man and nature, mediated by technology. The crickets were observed and fed for days, separated into four different groups according to aptitude and species, corresponding to four separate channels, as if they were four teeming autonomous, living and responsive instruments. Diachronic is a patented instrument inspired by the plastic dynamism of the Futurist Umberto Boccioni, free jazz, and the elliptical regularity of Kepler's laws. It allows you to draw speed variations in real time while maintaining the same duration of the measure, to improvise as the sound paste unfolds over time. This digital instrument is used during the session to dialogue with the crickets, which reacted particularly to sharp peaks, while in the second part it becomes the exclusive and artificial protagonist, and is used to rework the recorded material.
