Riccardo Dillon Wanke

multi-instrumentalist and composer. From 1995 active in arts (music, installations), his interest includes classical, improvised and exploratory music and it is focused on diffusion of new and contemporary art. He is particularly interested in digital and analog manipulation of sound and its application into musical compositions. His work with guitars and keyboards (piano and rhodes) has started from pure radical improvisation and has drawn to the investigation of drones sounds, static music. He recently develops systems to elaborate acoustic sounds with analogue filters and synthesizers.
