Snowsound is an audiovisual project and musical research that intertwines Olympic archival materials, for the enhancement of the historical memory of winter sports, with contemporary artistic languages. An engaging experience, with a focus on accessibility and cultural inclusion.
Live Soundtracks
The musicians Guglielmo Prati, Tamburi Neri, and Vincenzo Fabiano (EEZEE Studio) will provide real-time soundtracks for a series of montages of vintage clips on Olympic winter sports, granted by the Istituto Luce and FICTS archives.
The archival images (1950s–70s), reworked and edited as living material, interact with the music of the artists in a layering of times that generates an immersive experience and new levels of understanding.
The SNOWSOUND Project
SNOWSOUND is an audiovisual and musical research project born from the collaboration between MMT Creative Lab and Filmmaker Festival within the framework of the Cultural Olympiad: a cultural experience that weaves together Olympic archival materials, live soundtracks and site-specific multimedia installations, to enhance the historical memory of winter sports – in view of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games – through contemporary artistic languages, generating an experience capable of engaging heterogeneous audiences and diverse territories of Lombardy, with a focus on accessibility and cultural inclusion.
The images of the past become the ground on which a profoundly present sound rests: the archive is not only remembered, but reinterpreted and re-signified. In this dialogue between the materiality of film and electronic writing, memory returns to movement and speaks to contemporary sensibility.
The Artists
Tamburi Neri is a project by Claudio Brioschi and Andrea Barbieri who share the same love for music, experimentation, and the search for new sounds. Claudio and Andrea met in 2012 in Val Masino at the “Kundaluna Bar”, where their friendship began, leading to the creation of the Tamburi Neri project in 2017. They have extremely different artistic profiles and musical backgrounds, but they are complementary in musical composition and artistic ideas. Tamburi Neri is a project based on the stories created by Andrea and the musical composition of Claudio. Since the beginning of their project, they have completed numerous pieces, with such naturalness that they seem already engraved in their minds. Their music offers a long vortex of emotions and poetry. Claudio oversees the sound production, while Andrea writes the lyrics and uses his voice to create atmospheres.
Vincenzo Fabiano has a decade-long experience in the video field as a visual and motion designer, creating multimedia content for concerts, performances, museum setups, and architectural projections. From 2011 to 2021, he collaborated with the Kernel Festival, and in 2022, together with Matteo Galimberto and Massimo Tantaro, he founded EEZEE, a creative studio in Milan. He is a Lecturer in Visual Art at the Istituto Europeo Design in Milan.
