STIMULI approaches music through gesture.
The hands and body are the sound generators, they make a counterpoint or detach from it. A dialogue built on stage between performers, ensemble, video images and electronics which aims to create stronger relations between body stimuli and audible result by erasing the logic interconnections between them.
