In the video above, Diego Stocco combines music and nature with technology. Most of Diego Stocco's musical compositions are inspired by nature. He uses objects, such as the tree in this video as his instruments. His creative use of nature is fascinating but what makes his music unique is his use of technology. If you watch the video you can see how he sets up tiny microphones that are able to capture sounds made by the tree that otherwise wouldn't be able to be heard. While recording, he also uses a loop that records and replays a desired section. When watching the video, listen to how he uses the loop to layer the sounds little by little. This allows Diego to create one tree into a tree orchestra.
Music is everywhere. What can you find in your back yard to make music?
Melanie, this video is simply amazing. I would have never thought that one person could create this music from one single tree. I'm simply fascinated by his final product. It makes this musical experience so much more authentic and organic. When he records these sounds, he can archive them and pick select ones for any future songs/pieces. This is such great work!
