A traveling exhibition dedicated to the nature of sound
A selection of synthesizers, keyboards, and electronic instruments is presented through their connection to the eras, techniques, atmospheres, and production processes that have shaped the history of Pink Floyd and, more broadly, the evolution of contemporary sound.
The museum explores the synthesizer as a historical artifact, a musical instrument, a technological device, and a cultural icon.
The Exhibition Itinerary
Essential fact sheets, listening exercises, audiovisual content, and guided stations help visitors understand how a timbre is created and how technology can become a means of expression.
Historical Object
Instruments and machines are linked to the eras and milestones that have shaped the evolution of electronic music.
Musical instrument
Keyboards, synthesizers, and synthesis systems are examined in terms of their role in shaping timbre.
Technological Device
Recording, effects, spatialization, synthesis, and timbral manipulation become part of the composition
Cultural icon
The synthesizer is described as an object capable of transforming imaginaries, languages, and creative practices.
Observe, listen, experiment
The Synth Museum offers an interactive experience: Visitors engage with the instruments and the principles of electronic sound through various levels of interaction.
Observe
Historical and modern instruments tell the story of different eras, technical solutions, and various approaches to sound design.
Listen
Audio and audiovisual content bring together tools, atmospheres, and production processes.
Experiment
Guided stations allow visitors to get a close-up look at the instruments and how sound is produced.
When Technology Becomes a Form of Expression
Every Pink Floyd album is the result of a long process of research, planning, recording, and experimentation.
The work of producers, technicians, and sound engineers has played a fundamental role in shaping the band’s identity. Recording, effects, spatialization, synthesis, and timbral manipulation become part of the composition and the narrative.
The Synth Museum collega strumenti e tecnologie alle atmosfere e ai processi che hanno contribuito a definire quell’immaginario sonoro.
A fun and educational space for children and families
Inside the museum, there is a special area set aside for children and families.
Using carefully selected instruments, MIDI keyboards, headphones, and assisted workstations, participants can touch, listen, and experiment in a safe environment. The activity introduces participants to sound through play.
Capacity, staffing, access procedures, hours, and operating procedures are defined and approved for each date.
