Terra is a composition for cello, percussions, live electronics, fragments, drifts, and territories. Territorial sonic fragments were collected while drifting between Los Angeles, Recife, Beirut, and then reassembled here and there in no particular order. These recombined and reterritorialized fragments were proposed to a cellist and a percussionist along with a graphic score. During three days, in a theatre in the Swiss Jura mountains, the composition was developed and then premiered in concert. Meanwhile, territories around the globe are chaotically fragmented, compressed, appropriated, deterritorialized, reterritorialized, decentralized, decompartmentalized. Ethereal territories drift, going one way, while humans go in the other. Luca Forcucci is an artist, composer and scholar, who investigates the field of possibilities of the first-person experience through installations, performances, electroacoustic music, video, photography and text. His compositions include solo works and collaborations with contemporary musicians, indigenous musicians, turntablists, electronic music pioneers, dancers and poets. Luca Forcucci achieved a PhD in Music, Technology and Innovation at De Montfort University in the UK, a MA in Sonic Arts from Queens University of Belfast, conducted his research at GRM/INA in Paris, TU Electronic Music Studio Berlin, and NOTAM in Oslo. He studied electroacoustic music with the Swiss composer Rainer Boesch, and Al Comet, former member of The Young Gods, produced his early work. His professional background includes architecture, neuroscience, and the curation of many projects worldwide by promoting art and science encounters with his very own lab www.ubqtlab.org in collaboration with Leonardo / ISATS in California.
