nomadica workroom on Etna volcano
tutors Gabriele Mitelli and Sara Persico, september 20th – 24th, 2025
The workshop develops as a sensory investigation that explores the power of the volcano. A symbol of uncontrollable energy and transformation, Mount Etna becomes a metaphor for the human condition, where external events – natural phenomena, sudden changes, revelations – can mark a fracture, a “before” and an “after” in both individual and collective experience.
Participants will be involved in recording the environmental sounds of the surrounding area and exploring the Nomadica sound archive. Through practical and theoretical sessions, technical knowledge of field recording will be provided, deepening the use of microphones, recorders, and sound capture techniques in natural environments.
