AMP2 is a permanent lab: an HUB, a centre to convey the creative spirit of the artists whose aesthetics doesn’t run out of stilistic codes or genres recorded and conventional.

This project was founded by Domenico Sciajno, who wanted to gather toghether musicians and artists who live in Palermo and surroundings.

Not only music and sound, indeed, but also video, image, dance, writing… no limits at all. The main idea of this project consists on showing the artist's willingness to leave apart the idioms and preconceived codes of their disciplines to embrace a new language, made up of contextual emergencies and deep listening , shared by all artists.

By this lab was established a CORE UNIT that has been conducting a continuous and thorough job, alongside to AntiTesi (www.antitesi.org) and other presented artists.

Among the International and National Artists with whom AMP2 CORE UNIT has worked on the project, we mention: Andrea Valle, Peter Kutin, Tim Hodgkinson, Anthony Pateras, Sean Baxter, Dave Brown, Francisco López, Kim Cascone.

Today the CORE UNIT is :

Dario Sanfilippo - Laptop/Live Electronics
