"Transmedia Borderlands" - Extending the potential of Historically informed Practice and Multimedia Storytelling in Practice-based Research

Alberto's current research aims to create resonance between the present and the past, studying the dialogue generated by multilevel narratives in relation to the fluidity of cultures.

Deeply inspired by the legacy of the borderland of Trieste, which has been the case study for his master's dissertation in ethnomusicology, Alberto's current research aims to create resonance between the present and the past, studying the dialogue generated by multilevel narratives in relation to the fluidity of cultures. The case studies he is focusing on seek to add new perspectives in the field of musical interpretation as well as its understanding, trying to connect the elements that produce the subtle combination of feelings and thoughts we experience while confronting a musical piece, starting with the analysis of its rhetorical power. The aim of the project is to investigate a multilevel system of narratives - i.e., a combination of texts, music, photography, and videos - and establish a new place for multimedia storytelling in artistic research, as well as creating space for what can be defined as the "archaeology of emotions'' within the historically and culturally informed reconstruction of a musical event.
