On this occasion the duet will be presenting their new album, app Infinito, which positions them at the top of the musical and technological avant-garde. The album includes 20 tracks divided into 48 fragments.

The same will occur in the fractal mode, but the playback will be based on the 48 pieces of the jigsaw puzzle. In either of the two modes, the album will never sound the same twice -an album that, thanks to technology, will have the same ability to restructure itself as Julio Cortázar’s Hopscotch.
Two figures of national jazz and alternative music come together in an eclectic show that includes also visual artists, turning every song into a visual and audible narrative.

Arturo López “Pío” creates Cineamano (Film by hand) as a result of his experiments and explorations with various techniques for the projection of animated images. Thus, he shows sequences of images in a large format that produce
