Paths. The artist plays back some music he loves (by Steve Roden, William Basinski, Akira Rabelais, Christina Kubisch...) in places that have marked his life, and then records the "dialogue" between the music itself and the environment's sounds.

In Paths Inverni plays back some music he loves (by Steve Roden, William Basinski, Akira Rabelais, Christina Kubisch...) in places that have marked his life, and then records the "dialogue" between the music itself and the environment’s sounds. As critic Daniela Cascella explains, "The audio tracks attempt to awake the magic that is felt when finding an old picture and creating an ever-peculiar story around it. There is not only one story in an image, not only one sound in a musical piece, and not only one distinctive path in a landscape: rather, for each of them, and each of their ways of combining, we catch a feeling, an emotional tone, a Stimmung, to borrow a term from the German language. A mutable and fleeting one, and yet we capture its ambience, its aura."
The work consists of a dual format project: a book with audio cd and an audio/visual installation.
Born in Savigliano, Piemonte, Italy in 1977, Paolo holds a BA in Communication Sciences qand a MA in Writing and Story-Editing for
