ITALIANO
FRANK SENT US e' un progetto audio visivo intento a creare un' interazione tra musica e arte visiva secondo un approccio multisensoriale, nato dalla collaborazione tra Alessandro Roberti (Clichèvideo), Mastro aka System Error, e Daniele Mungai aka Frenetik Beat.
Un progetto in cui la musica e il video si fondono completamente creando una miscela esplosiva.
Estratti video vengono “suonati dal vivo” elaborando la sonorizzazione originale del filmato in una serie di loop ipnotici, armonizzati da tappeti sonori perfettamente in sintonia con l’immagine.
I temi possono essere infiniti. Ogni sequenza video dotata di una forte musicalità può essere destrutturata e ricomposta secondo un approccio orchestrale. In particolare, l' espressività delle sequenze tratte da film culto caratterizzano e diventano le note stesse della composizione, creando un' atmosfera unica nel suo genere. La musicalità dei suoni unita alla forte narratività delle immagini danno vita a suggestioni di grande impatto emozionale, esaltate dalla unicità che caratterizza ogni performance dal vivo!
Frank Sent Us ha una natura unica e poliedrica al tempo stesso, passando da performance audiovisive capaci di infuocare la platea di un affollato club metropolitano ad avveniristiche installazioni audiovisive in contesti artistici multisensoriali.
Uno Show dove ci si ritrova ad ascoltare le immagini e guardare il suono.
Frank Sent Us è stato inoltre vincitore di Elettrowave 08 come miglior progetto audiovisivo ed ha partecipato a molti eventi in tutta Italia tra cui: Romaeuropa Festival, Homework, Audiovisiva, Muv Festival, FuturFest, Trieste Film Festival, Brancaleone, Adrenalina e Elettrofaul.
ENGLISH
Frank Sent Us was born from the collaboration between Alessandro Roberti (Clichévideo), Mastro aka System Error, and Daniele Mungai, aka Frenetik Beat in Rome.
The project was born through the use of electronic and classical instruments and avant-garde computers.
A live set where music and video completely melt down, creating an explosive mixture.
Video are “played live” by just working through their original soundtracks and forming a series of hypnotic loops, harmonized perfectly in tune with the images on the screen.
The themes may be endless.
Each video sequence has a proper strong musicality that can be taken apart and reconstructed with an orchestral approach.
The expressiveness of cult movies’ images make them sound like musical notes and create with this mix, an amazing event.
The musicality of the sound combined with strong narrative images breed a great emotional impact, which is emphasized by the uniqueness that characterizes each live performance.
Frank Sent Us has a unique and multifaceted nature, due to the audiovisual performance which is able to stir up the dance floor of a crowded underground club and be part of futuristic audio-visual installations in multisensory artistic contexts. From Doing a live mix of films, like if that would be music, the video is broken up and played again, like a music instrument.
Watch the sound, listen to the images.

Romborama is the fruit of one day of shooting and two and a half months of scratching, torment, solitude, anxiety and inspiration…. To achieve the right degree of confusion.
I lacerated 15000 frames on a 35mm film.
Then I added letraset, colour and in the end I applied the screentones, used by designers to emphasize the colour contrast.
