Aura Satz in Rome: "She recalibrates"

Spanish‑British artist Aura Satz presents her first solo exhibition in Italy at the Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone. The project foregrounds women’s roles in the history of electronic music using film portraits, audio installations and drawings that translate sonic gestures into moving images.

What to see

• Film portraits focused on figures such as Daphne Oram, Laurie Spiegel and Beatriz Ferreyra, exploring technologies, compositional methods and sound memory.
• The Listening Cobweb (2024), a film about percussionist Evelyn Glennie and the practice of embodied listening.
• She Recalibrates, a series of pencil drawings on black paper mounted with lenticular lenses: the visual effect requires visitor movement and active participation.

Why visit

The exhibition offers a critical, feminist perspective on the history of electronic music, blending archival research with poetic inquiry. It invites visitors to recalibrate their listening habits and consider alternative narratives of technological and sonic production.
