CONVERSAZIONI ALLA FONTE REGINA

Environmental behavior for birds and bird calls


invention, direction and performance Fabrizio Saìu
with the students of the Liceo scientifico Galileo Galilei (Caselle di Selvazzano), in collaboration with the sound artist and musician Francesco Ganassin

production Fabrizio Saiu, Land on Art Festival
media bird calls, megaphones, smartphones
duration 35 minutes










In Conversazioni alla Fonte Regina, a group of performers establishes an acoustic relationship with the local birds using traditional hunting birdcalls. Repurposed from their original function, these tools are used to construct a sound environment structured as a conversation. Rather than merely imitating nature, the performance actively simulates a new, hybrid soundscape.





Through the unconventional use of birdcalls, megaphone-induced feedback, and smartphones generating high-frequency audio bands (10–15 kHz), the artists gradually transfigure the park's acoustic environment. Ultimately, the sonic intervention fades away, allowing the original natural soundscape to gently re-emerge.


Realized in Fonte Regina (Colli Euganei - PD) @Land On Art Festival (2017)
