Alfabetário is software developed in MaxMSP that transforms text typed on a computer keyboard into projected typographic paintings and soundscapes created from recordings of the alphabet in different languages and intonations.
As well as allowing the creation of typographic compositions, such as the image above, Alfabetário algorithmically generates a poem at the end of its use, incorporating all the words introduced in previous interactions. An example can be found below.
In workshops, the Alfabetário promotes the literal and metaphorical deconstruction of words, exploring their semantic content and sonic musicality.
Developed in 2022.
