These musicians have experimented the interaction among sound, sign and vision, a synaesthetics of art derived from historical avant-gardes, from Kandinskij to futurism, to Scrjabin and Schoenberg, all the way to Bauhaus.[3]

He worked extensively on the music of the twentieth-century avant-garde movements, including first modern performances of a large number of compositions of Futurism music. [4]

In his work he has incorporate sign, gesture, and sound into a unitary concept of multiple perception, through analogies, contrasts, stratifications, and associations. He has produced from 1969 on, since 1990, drawings, paintings, computer graphics and videos. [5]
