The Sound of Images

Moreno Bueno is an artist whose track record has combined sound and visual experimentation around themes such as the body, movement and analogue processes. She has set herself the task of converting images projected through 16 mm into sounds by using photosensitive microphones. The resulting artwork is a kind of diary of Moreno Bueno’s stay in Toronto, which she produced using the colours and shapes found in her wanderings around the city. She also plays with double exposures, expired emulsions, colour filters and different methods for developing by hand, gradually modifying the images (via a random, open procedure) in a symphony of a city that truly sounds, by directly translating its projected images. It is an experiment that involved creating microphones that she herself describes as “photophonotransistors”. Rather than microphones, they are instruments that use images instead of strings or wind to create sound.
