Trama afonA – Trama afonA

Trama afonA is the sound/visual project by Lorenzo Scacchia (Roma, 1977),
a vain attempt to tramaphonise (convey) what he sees in the dark and
hears into silence…



Apart from a few self-productions, this album constitutes the first
official release, gathering tracks composed between 2005 and 2008
(presented in reverse chronological order). Tracks 1, 3 were inspired by
a wonderful creature. Tracks 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12 were composed as
soundtrack for various solo photo/graphic exhibitions by Trama afonA.
Track 4 drew inspiration from a story by H. P. Lovecraft. Track 11 was
composed for an Italian compilation. Tracks 13, 14 were the soundtrack
for the former Trama afonA’s website.



Trama afonA is gathering suggestions from the contemporary quotidian
theatre and at the same time from the past, namely the 19th and early
20th centuries.



Paying particular attention to the individual and specific human
stories, rather than to History… Focusing on what happens behind the
scenes, aside, beneath. Subjects and dynamics less showy, blurred, but
not consequently less interesting or worth caring. Opening doors and
drawers using the sole curiosity as tool, walking backwards the traces
of memory, wandering amid shades and details given by mystery,
decadence, abandon, romanticism… Carefully delving into psychological
dynamics. Openly denouncing the social plagues, but often humbly
providing just visual and sound suggestions.



A brief semantic note about Trama afonA: the Italian noun trama has 3
significations, corresponding to the English plot (as a story line as
well as a conspiracy) and weft (of a woven material); the adjective
afona means aphonic.
