Premio Combat Prize

Description:(f)E = (f)m • (f)c² _ A Music Mass-Energy Equivalence: my music theory combines Albert Einstein and Roman Jakobson studies to explain the Power of Music. I personally re-interpreted the Musical Language, which is a mathematical one, both in light of the Relativistic Formula and of a linguistic analysis based on Roman Jakobson’s Communication Theory.(f)E = Emotive function (addresser) : kinetic energy of the mood 
(f)m = metalinguistic function (code) : mass of elements defining the musical code 
(f)c²
= conative function (addressee)²
: persuasive velocity²

Relativistic music mass increases with the persuasive velocity.Peculiarity and concept of my works:“All the materials employed to create my works had already been used or destroyed previously. They were destined to become trash. This way, an object that was supposed to never be used again, was given a new ”life”. All my concepts turns around the meaning of creation from the concept of a vacuum, metaphorically present even in death, as a moment that generates new life. If art is life, it can also die to create a new artistic cycle. Only after the acceptance of the void as an indispensable element of creation, and death as a necessary outcome of all, life can continue into the future. So the artist will strive for perfection of the universe contained in Chaos, among silence and noise. He becomes a sort of spiritual warrior then, in order to re-establish the consciousness of the world. The artist now knows well how to use what is apparently useless or unusable, to rediscover emptiness as something essential for creation and the acquisition of knowledge of being: ”Art in the Virtue of its Void...” Biography: Lorenzo Sevn Altieri is an Italian artist and music producer.
