Iacopo Seri

Improvisation for sticks and choir is a vocal performance created by Iacopo Seri and students from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence who attended the Mind Fellowships introductory seminar.
The artist rhythmically led the temporary community of students, who autonomously vocalized in search for a collective harmony with the two sticks…

“The performance took place at the end of the meeting with the Carico Massimo’s board, in which we illustrated the On Air platform and the student’s fellowships program. We talked about thought as work, uselessness as necessity. The improvisation came out of the energy of this very meeting, without a score or premeditation. Whatever came out of the recording made, we would have inserted it into the airchive itself: the moment gave us this minimalist polyphony.” Iacopo Seri
