Trimpin: The Sound of Invention

78min - USA, Germany

Producer: Peter Esmonde

TRIMPIN: THE SOUND OF INVENTION is an amusing journey through the sonic world of a wildly eccentric creative genius. We follow artist/inventor/engineer/composer (and MacArthur genius) Trimpin as he designs and builds a 60-foot tornado of more than 500 automatic electric guitars; constructs an ensemble of huge marimbas that converts real-time earthquake data into music; collaborates with the Kronos Quartet on an outrageous world premiere with toy instruments...and that's just for starters. TRIMPIN is sure to delight anyone interested in the mysteries, pitfalls, and sheer joy of creative experiment.
