Extended Psalter
This proposal is about a musical performance by Claudio Merlet, which presents the final result of the author's investigation and technical-musical developmental process aimed at the creation of an electronic interface, one that—through digital programming, DC motors and its own mechanism to attach itself to an original acoustic string instrument—allows for unnoticed aesthetic and theoretical possibilities. This is a musical proposal that lives in the limit between the academic and the experimental, between the elitist and the underground, between science and art, between human and machine.
