Ultimo Domicilio (trans. "The Last Domicile") is the new work by Italian composer Emmanuele de Raymondi in collaboration with photographer Lorenzo Castore. Castore began the photographic journey in 2008 documenting 5 "domiciles" in Europe and the United States, each with a strong connection to stories of exile and war in European history. The collaboration between these two artists has produced an 18-minute video that explores the concept of individual and collective memory through the five domiciles. Each home, photographed by Castore, corresponds to an original composition by Emanuele de Raymondi. The tracks are titled with the name of the place itself: Finale (Italy), Fontenay (France), Brooklyn (United States), Sarajevo (Bosnia) and Krakow (Poland). De Raymondi's music finds its place between chamber music and avant-garde, using piano, guitars, and samplers. Through the images of Castore, De Raymondi creates a highly evocative path in which the five domiciles become sonic places. At times, extremely dense and layered, other times intriguingly sparse and minimal. Places of sound, places of history, places of the past... last domiciles. Castore's photographs were "animated" by Daniel Spano. Includes mp3 download code.
