Sound of the Spheres for Macro Photonics tells how in the dark side of the moon the mysterious sounds that have heard the Apollo 10 astronauts have allowed them to enter another dimension where space / time has other rules.
In February 2016 the recording of the conversation between the three astronauts orbiting on the dark side of the moon, made public by NASA already in 1973, was again spread by the American channel Science Channel. This is how the debate on the origins of those sounds heard by Eugene Cernan, John Young and Tom Stafford in 1969 is reopened: '' Do you feel it? That kind of whistle? ''. 'Do you also feel it?' 'Yes, it sounds like music from space' '. Device disturbances? Interference between the command and lunar radio modules?
Sound of the Spheres is a journey into space / time and knowledge.
As the formal goal of achieving the ultimate audio-visual sinesthesia, Sound of the Spheres was born from the theory of Pythagorean "Ball Music", in which the Greek philosopher stated that the Sun, Moon and planets of the solar system effect of their movements, would produce a continuous sound, imperceptible to the human ear, and all together would produce harmony.
Thanks to the re-elaboration of NASA audio and video fragments, Sound of the Spheres creates an immersive environment where sound and light are intended to alter the perception of those who enter it in order to stimulate thought and vision.

Giuseppe Guariniello aka Mutech, is a digital artist who through video, installations and performances declines complex and refined audiovisual landscapes.
His world feeds on stimuli that come from obsolete obsolete visual fragments, software that generate images from code and math, of 3D shapes that are treated like old photographs. All this gives rise to an audiovisual story where sinesthesia between sound and image creates powerful and evocative performances and installations thanks to the use of ancestral icons.
