Abstract

Elemental is a site-specific sound intervention that proposed a ritual of invocation of the elements at the base of the El Portezuelo mountain in Catamarca (Argentina). It is based on a digital system that captures parameters of the environment and composes electronic music in real time, based on the information detected. Part of the results were recorded during the intervention and later edited with a format of small generative musical pieces, thus forming a sound memory of the experience.
