Pieza para Tapalata de 5 tapas de lata

Videoarte del compositor y artista venezolano Ricardo Teruel, realizado con un instrumento o juguete musical de fabricación propia, utilizando tapas de lata (tipo leche en polvo) tocado con baquetas hechas con bolitas de desodorante de bolita y alambre de ganchos de ropa. Es necesario amplificar el instrumento para obtener un sonido más resonante.

Se utilizó software gratuito para realizar la partitura musical (MuseScore y Lilypond), grabar y editar el audio (Audacity), crear fuentes sonoras (soundfonts) (Viena), generar la secuencia desde la partitura y grabarla (Quartz Audio-Master, VSTHost), crear la secuencia de video (AVdrum), editar los videos y someterlos a algunos filtros (Virtualdub), para ciertas imágenes fijas (The Gimp) y realizar el montaje y mezcla de los videos y audio (zs4).

This is astounding! Wonderful precision and beauty in sound, color and movement! I watched your Tapalata Bounce first and was entranced by the film! This video demonstrates the wizardry! Such a marvelous film, Ricardo!
