A semi-permanent sound installation by Michele Ferrari (1986) will be presented inside the bookshop spaces. An unpublished site-specific audio including field-recordings deriving from a selection of some of the artist's books of the publishing house Paint It Black. The sound of pages leafed through at varying speeds and intensities is superimposed on electromagnetic sounds recorded across the bookshop and the rooms of the Castello di Rivoli. This original soundscape titled BLCKRVL will be activated during opening hours every fifty-nine minutes, for a total duration of approximately one minute.
