Pictures, notes, generative media (sound or visual), mix with the rhythmic beats of the keys, and are woven according to the words that I type on the keyboard. And so I find that there are sentences intensely melodic and poignant. The first session of TYP-O is dedicated to the verses of my most beloved poet, Walt Whitman.
In its latest version, the performance involves the interaction with the audience and the presence on stage of two identical Olivetti typewriters, both connected to the computer. People are invited, one by one, to sit in front of me and write something on the typewriter in front of them (a thought, a poem, a confession, a secret), thus participating in a sort of typing "concerto for two hands".
