This time Human AutomatArt is in Edinburgh from 9 to April the 24th, 10am to 5pm, for the DataSphere exhibition, for Edinburgh Science Festival, at the National Museums of Scotland.
We had to say goodbye to our beloved dog Sila, the most anarchic and musical dog ever. She’ll be greatly missed.
Shortwave radio is one of the most fascinating sonic worlds – capturing vital moments in world history as well as the thrill of pirate radio, clandestine radio stations, secretive number stations and military and spy radio. All of humanity is truly out there to be listened to at the turn of a dial.
Cities and Memory have teamed up with The Shortwave Radio Archive to present more than 100 incredible recordings from the history of shortwave radio all over the world for artists to remix and reimagine.
Silent Chaos created the composition De-Konstruktion.
In the present world, every human being has become a living set of data, and potentially a content creator. With Human AutomatArt, we are transforming Aberdeen’s Music Hall into an information collector, gathering data from the human activities occurring there, via movement detection, sound and temperature sensors, whose data are generating the digital painting on the screen. Doing so, the unaware human beings become the autonomous agents whose behaviours create the structure for the generative art program, and the human life and related activities as a whole become the painting artist.
After the first The Autogenerative Secret Music of Plants, this time we make a bucket of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) play the modular synth and the FM synth Korg OpSIx. They tend to be on one side quite noisier than the plants, but on the other, they are a quite thoughtful type. And they sing melancholic tunes.
Our composition “L’Oscuro Oceano dello Spazio Infinito”, originally commissioned by Sound Festival for the 2020’s edition, is now in rotation at the Marischal College in Aberdeen for the British Art Show 9 and Sound Festival 2021.
We are starting this series of live autogenerative sets on Youtube that will see Audrey The Plant control with her inner bioelectrical movements, through bio-feedback sensors applied to her leaves, the modular synth and the Korg OpSix FM synth.
After one year of pause, we started to record the new album, “Origins”. Unlike the previous albums, which were rather a dionysiac burst of flowing consciousness than a reasoned stylistic and compositional work, with this new project we completely changed the approach. The whole project will consist of an album and a graphic novel as its final outcome, and of this blog that we’ll populate with stories and images from this foreseen future, as well as shots from the work in progress both of the album and of the graphic novel, compositional insights on our techniques, and dark autogenerative live sets.
Released for Toten Schwan Records in the compilation “Gli déi se ne sono andati, grazie per il vostro odio” on December 18, 2020.

“Origins” was specifically crafted for radio and it is supposed to be listened in a relaxing place, in darkness, so the listener can be easily taken to the worlds Silent Chaos are creating. The tense structured drones create an atmosphere where your sense of historical time is lost, leaving you suspended in a dark and dreamy world, and the far but pressing drums that sneak into that world bring you to ancient times, where the super humans archetypes still reign.
Silent Chaos (Marta Noone – Modular Synthesizer, Vocals, FX & Ugo Vantini – Electronic Drums and Percussions, Loops, Samplers), is a conceptual experimental music project founded in Rome in 2016, now based in the north-east of Scotland. Their music nourishes of non-linear time, of conceptual and performing circularity: ancient and futuristic sounds advance in a spiral-shaped way. Music is structured but not predictable, in an impromptu composition based on improvisation. Past, present and future times mash up in ancient sonorities and electronic twistings, filtered through the personal musical experiences. They have left behind every formality of instrument’s classic execution.
