SCIENCE of SOUND
The project will launch with Science of Sound: a series of 16mm shorts exploring essential production techniques & debuting new music by Senni, Barbieri & Not Waving. Inspired by warped cult cinema & experimental motion graphics, each piece is a disruptive reimagining of the archetypal production tutorial.

On June 7th, BR & Genelec will host a live-broadcast event at Helsinki’s Ääniwalli: a towering celebration of the next generation of forward-thinking electronic music, ft. pointillist trance icon Lorenzo Senni, modular synth doyenne Caterini Barbieri, UK upstart Rian Treanor, audio iconoclast Peder Mannerfelt, & Diagonal’s Not Waving.
