Exclusive Interview with Diego Stocco, A “Sound Magician” You probably have heard about Diego Stocco, a composer and sound designer with a pretty particular way of creating sonic experiences mostly using rare instruments, found sounds and by doing special explorations of the sonic environment.
He has done a lot of fantastic videos exploring different perspectives of field recording, sound design and experimental composition, actually creating its own instruments or using the whole environment as an instrument. He has recently finished a work called “Diego Stocco – Sound Magician” for DTS company, where he did small but interesting projects on exploring sonority and reality in a very interesting way. I recently did an interview with Diego for the Spanish site Hispasonic and he asked me if I could publish the interview in English as well so it can reach more people.
