From Cave Paintings to VisualMusic (2026)
A Reflection on the Continuity of Human Creative Expression
by Sergio Maltagliati

This video presents a reading of the essay From Cave Paintings to VisualMusic, a reflection on the continuity of human creative expression from prehistoric cave paintings to contemporary VisualMusic, generative art, and intermedia practices.

Rather than establishing a direct connection between prehistoric and contemporary artworks, the essay explores a broader question: how human beings have transformed perception, memory, imagination, sound, and experience into shared symbolic forms throughout history.

The text includes references to prehistoric art, Wassily Kandinsky, John Cage, Pietro Grossi, Sylvano Bussotti, Giuseppe Chiari, Visual Music, and contemporary generative practices. It also situates the artistic research of Sergio Maltagliati within a broader historical and cultural context.

🇮🇹
Questo video presenta una lettura del saggio Dalle Pitture Rupestri alla VisualMusic, una riflessione sulla continuità del gesto creativo umano dalle immagini preistoriche alla VisualMusic contemporanea, all'arte generativa e alle pratiche intermediali.

Più che stabilire una relazione diretta tra opere preistoriche e opere contemporanee, il testo propone una riflessione sulla capacità umana di trasformare percezioni, memoria, immaginazione, suono ed esperienza in forme simboliche condivisibili.
