Text

A glance on the world, on landscapes, on children, on highways, on lifts, on faces, on lakes, on subways…The kinematic tablets are connected shoots where slowness and speed, images and sounds come together. Kinematic Pills is a video-concert. The music is especially composed and arranged for Guido Prestigiamo’s videos. Five musicians are on the stage, the images are all around. The musical language is varied and ranges from electronic music to “Nordic” European jazz, from Hip- Hop to Rock and ethnic music. 

Kinematic Pills is a project by Stanislao Lesnoj and Guido Prestigiovanni.

An example of how different musical styles can, through images, create a new synthesis, taking the viewer/spectator to far away lands.

 Compositions by Stanislao Lesnoj and Federico Bosia.
