about

Nonius

Made in 1984 in additive synthesis with the Alpha Syntauri music system, the piece was regenerated and edited in 2021. Manufactured in 1982 by Syntauri of Palo Alto, California, Alpha Syntauri uses a Mountain Computer board with 16 oscillators installed on the Apple II.

In Nonius the predominant element is made up of sinusoidal sounds accompanied by fragments of overlapping cyclic structures and by clusters that govern the states of condensation and rarefaction of the sound matter.

The title, Nonius, refers to a measuring instrument with a graduated scale: the vernier (nonio), invented in 1942 by Pedro Nunes.
