Hi, My name is Dennis Andrés and I am an audiovisual engineer, Atlasmooth is the label for my music, audiovisual and technology projects.

Part of my work revolves around the design and programming of interactive systems that allow artists and audiences to manipulate sound and light signals through kinetic energy, creating new audiovisual experiences or interacting with a computer in an accessible and fun way.

The other part of the time I make music and visuals, combining them and integrating the systems, software and hardware that I created into them.

I collect sound samples and light samples while looking for artists to collaborate with and new places to visit.

I’m also an open-source advocate who believes that technologies can reach their greatest potential and noble applications when they are open to individuals and communities around the world. This is because the effort is not driven by profit or private interests of few people or companies, instead is focused on the technology, transparency and the people itself, those who use that technology to learn, create and share amazing things, and those who contribute to improve it and create new projects on top or inspired by it.

The name Atlasmooth, comes from one of my favorite animals: the “Attacus Atlas Moth”, one of the biggest and most ephemeral flying insects on earth. I became familiar with its majesty when, many years ago, I was practicing drawing with an old eciclopledia my grandfather gave to me. It is one of those nature specimens that stand out in a universe of colors and form. Its name somehow captures my fascination with maps and the wanderlust dream of moving around the world, not only physically but also through music and stories in books and films.
