Frederico Dinis

Composer of Dance and Electronic
A.k.a. Diniz

Portuguese (1974) researcher and intermedia composer, whose practice integrates performance, installation, theatre, photography, radio, video and sound, often developed in collaboration with other visual artists, dancers, choreographers, performers, musicians and curators. One of the focuses of his work is the constant reflection on the representation of a figurative space-time, associating sonic and visual narratives that allow to recall local environments that connect to wider horizons. His work has been embraced by museums, concert halls, public spaces and events, and he has released six ambient works (perhaps only as a memory reconstructed, 2018; sinuous sensations hypnotic emotions, 2018; perhaps only as a memory, 2018; fragments of emotions, 2015; chilled winter sunrise, 2013; gentle breeze at sunset, 2011) and which recalls more than just simple sensations or faded memories, building each theme a boldly sensual and where each note has a distinct emotional tone. He is currently developing his artistic language with the aim to foster innovative audio-visual processes, related with real-time sound visualization and exploring site-specific sound and image relations at the PhD in Art Studies at University of Coimbra (PT). He holds a degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Coimbra. He is also a researcher of the Centre for 20th Century Interdisciplinary Studies of the University of Coimbra, and as a researcher his creation projects relate to specific places, exploring throughout the research and creation process the intersection between art, technology, identity and space, seeking to reflect about the importance of site-specific and sense of place. He has presented the results of his research-creation projects in several places and at conferences.
