In the era of computer technology, we often watch videos at low volume or even without sound. However, it is far from always possible to become an accomplice to the events on the screen without hearing the sound track. The solution is simple: just turn up the volume!
PUMP UP THE VOLUME! is an online project where contemporary artists, composers and musicians talk about their video work, in which music and sound play an important role.
The project was implemented jointly with the Center for the Study of Russian Culture (CSAR) at Ca Foscari University and with the support of the Russian-Italian Forum Dialogue.
