In my quest to create a work from sounds and its graphic translation, I played two instruments while digitally recording their sounds. TV screens and the engraved tubes were the traces of that performance and of the digital translation of sound into lines.
In his book Impecable-implacable: Marcas de la contemporaneidad en el arte (Impeccable-implacable, Marks of Contemporaneity in Art), Gabriel F.
