The work comes from the need to ricreate a localized attention in order to get later a terror not circumscribable to a single element but, rather, to the sum of the things.

Mimetic Ensemble for a church #1 is a performance conceived by The Boys and Kifer for the church of San Giuseppe delle Scalze in Naples. The work is developed through the use of four live designated positions - each one for a different music instrument - located in the central nave of the church. Through the activation of every instrument, The Boys and Kifer enacts a stratification of melodies and different sounds - among which some field recordings collected in Naples in the days preceding the event - with the purpose to create a unique combination of sonorities capable to influence each other and then lose their singularity.

Roberto Casti - The Series - The Beginning

Presented during âRoberto Casti & The Boys and Kifer - INTROITUS (Parte del Tutto), curated by Bite The Saurus, Chiesa di San Giuseppe delle Scalze, Naples
2018
The Beginning is the pilot episode of a TV series which uses the linguistic means belonging to the serial television format, with the purpose of building a meta-narration which retraces the creation and the History of human language. In the first episode the narrator talks about the origin of the Universe. Images composed by DIY techniques â childlike representations but also home experiments â lead the spectator to questioning about the nature of human language, and on its adherence to reality.

Untiled is an experiential composition of incomprehensible nature. It could be a challenge for human intellect or a simply combination of things: incised clay, pigment, smoke and neon.

During the opening of âArcipelago Ovestâ two musicians - one next to the amplifier of the other - tried to tune their own guitars.
The sounds recorded during the performance are now transmitted by the amplifiers that, together with the other equipment, make up the elements of a unique installation.

The video, through the inconstant voice of a narrator, focuses on the importance given to things and human species despite the clear powerlessness towards a universe which cannot perceive us.  The man tries to  importance to himself by the research of a forced congregation. This creates a sense and tries to increase the impossibility of being understood.

Roberto Casti - Another Sun
Music film
16:9, 78 min
2016
âAnother Sunâ arises as the music album by âThe Boys and Kieferâ, a visual and auditory project by the artist and composer RC. The Boys and Kifer is an imaginary band that works by conventional procedures of musical distribution (music albums, videos, concerts), but, in addition to constantly different performances, introduces alternative ways for the fruition of music by making a contact with visual arts. This research have brought Roberto Casti to direct a film retracing the story of "Another Sunâ, that of fact, it's a concept album. The result is a musical feature film characterized by a translation in images of text and music from the album.
The film opens a window into the life and mind of a boy who has always lived alone in a completely depopulated world, but with recurrent signs of human passage. His outlook on life changes when, suddenly, comes into contact with other people and, above all, with a girl who will help him to understand the dynamics of a new totally alien world.
Somehow the film has tried to put together, through a sense of ever-present duality, the perceptions of two neighboring worlds but completely different. This reflects the choice to shoot the scenes both in Sardinia, in the Sulcis Iglesiente area (but also going to the dunes of Piscinas), which in Milan.
The film was presented and premiered in Gonnesa (Sardinia) September 9, 2016. There will be a second public screening in Milan.
