slower pace of existence

remaining in existence

Frederico Dinis is a Portuguese lecturer, practitioner-researcher, intermedia composer at the interface between contemporary artistic practices of performativity and new media technologies that seek to represent a figurative space-time, combining sound and visual narratives with unusual spaces. 
He holds a PhD in Art Studies – Arts/Drama and Performance Studies at the University of Coimbra (PT).
His sonorities are hybrid and integrate a set of influences: ambient, drone, soundscape, soft noise, and minimal electronic, and his compositions fall back on field recordings, atmospheric textures and evolving patterns, marked by fragmented rhythms. 
As a solo artist he has released nine works ("sinuous sensations hypnotic emotions II", 2022 [CD box, 7CDs]; "an unexplained emptiness", 2021 [CD, digital]; "slower pace of existence", 2019 [CD, digital]; "perhaps only as a memory reconstructed," 2019 [K7]; "sinuous sensations hypnotic emotions I", 2018 [CD box, 7CDs]; "perhaps only as a memory", 2018 [CD, digital]; "fragments of emotions", 2015 [CD, digital]; "chilled winter sunrise", 2013 [CD];" gentle breeze at sunset", 2011 [CD]) and developed multiple site-specific performances.
His work has been embraced by museums, concert halls, public spaces and events in Europe and Brazil.
