Pianoscópio has found a permanent home at the Marvão International Academy for Music, Arts and Sciences, following its appearance at the sixth edition of the Festival Internacional de Música de Marvão. The Academy promotes art residencies, concerts, masterclasses and exhibitions, and curates the space at Quinta dos Olhos d’Água where Pianoscópio is now installed. The space and soundscape of the Quinta resonate with Pianoscópio, drawing inspiration from the people who gather there, combining an environment of research and “hands-on” creativity with a scientific perspective on music.

In November, Pianoscópio will travel to Som Riscado, a visual arts and music festival in Loulé. There will be exhibitions and workshops, and Pianoscópio will become a collective instrument and a space of interactive installation for people to visit. More information here.
