More from (vessels)2 🚢 with Sistro✨
"IV what is this?" Is a short and playful mov. 🍄 in which crunchy snare drum samples 🥁 are combined with glitched sounds 👾
(vessels)2 is written for my instrument vssl 🎛️
#opensource #puredata #experimental #electronica #avantgarde
vssl uses machine learning to analyze and organize sounds by their audio descriptors rather than filenames, enabling real-time navigation through sample libraries 🤖

Snippets from the premiere of (vessels)2 with Sistro Duo✨
(vessels)2 explores the sampler as both container and vessel. 🚢The piece is performed on vssl, a perceptual sampler and granular synthesizer I designed, programmed, and built🎛️

- More around and explore the room with your mouse or arrow keys.
- Zoom in with 2 fingers on trackpad (depending on browser)
- The audio is rendered binaurally in real-time and it matches your viewing position :)
For best playback:
- Use a chromium based browser (Vivaldi, Brave, Chrome) or the YouTube app.
- Use headphones (binaural sound).
- Disable "stable volume" to avoid YT's audio compression
- Watch in 4K in order to see the designs on the flaps
Commissioned by Børnekulturhus A'mar with support from #statenskunstfond (Danish Art Council) & #kodakultur / #danskkomponistforening (Danish Composers Society)
Premiered at Børneklang #klangfestival november 2025
idea, composition, puredata programming: Xavier Bonfill
hardware design and production: vertigo
based on an open source project by Scott Bezek
The installation creates an imaginative universe where the audience can step inside and let themselves be surrounded by sounds, mechanical movements, and abstract animations. The project explores multimedia experiences at the intersection between the analog and the digital.
$?|¡† ƒ|4? (52x60) is an art installation that reinvents the classic “split-flap” display technology, familiar to many from train station arrival and departure boards, in a contemporary and artistic format.
Interactive / immersive 🤿 video documentation of my installation piece "$?L¡† ƒL4? (52x60)"🎰 is now live on my YT channel ✨️

The commission of the piece has been made possible with kind support from #statenskunstfond & #kodakultur 🙏
And the event has been granted support from #kodakultur #danskmusikerforbund #knudhøjgaardsfond #vesterbrolokaludvalg 🚀
The piece has been in the works for over a year. We met with Katerina Anagnostidou and Marta Soggetti in 2024 to record extensive sound libraries based around snare drum and bass drum 🥁The recordings were then edited and processed and loaded into vssl to create the final composition. ✂️🔉🤖✨

(vessels) store memories 🗃️
(vessels) are always moving from A to B to all the other places they have to be. 🚢🛳️
(vessels)2 is the second piece in the (vessels) workseries, but the first to be premiered. The piece is scored for two vssl, a “perceptual” sampler and granular synthesizer that I have been developing since 2023. This performance will also be a premiere of the instrument! 🎛️
