“A space that, in the hands of Mybosswas, becomes a mystical setting for a performance that distills bodies and the purity of sound. Not to be missed.”
L’Espresso
“Exploring the unknown through a blend of music, cinema and visuals. When music, cinema and visuals come together, the result is always astonishing, and this time even more so.”
La Stampa
“A film about lives that are essential, yet unknown.”
Corriere della Sera
The preparatory short film of Beautiful Things was shoot in 2013.
The reverberation chamber, this tremendous, unfamiliar space, moves those who walk over its threshold into an overflow of mystical awe. Yet it is but a measuring tool for those who explore the boundaries of the physics of sound.
Unbeknownst to us, the reverberation chamber is an obligatory rite of passage for most of the objects we use in our daily lives.
The film is based on the interaction between the almost-holy, aesthetic elevation of a once-off musical performance that can only be played within the chamber, and the sheer mathematical aloofness of its ‘priest’
Giorgio Ferrero and Rodolfo Mongitore (Minus&Plus) composed and recorded a unique, one-of-a-kind suite for the reverberation chamber, which, for the first time, abandoned its role as a measurement instrument to become a true musical instrument, composed of blown organ pipes, struck walls and human voices.
