It is a system that transforms winds into music. When the wind starts blowing, the entire system starts working, creating a melody where the pattern is established by the wind.

Music of Winds was built in 2003 with the support of the Pampulha Grant – Pampulha Art Museum. It was exhibited in 2003 at the Modos-de-usar group show Galeria Vermelho – São Paulo, in 2004 at the Salão Nacional de Artes Plásticas de Belo Horizonte – Pampulha Art Museum, in 2005 at the Annual Exhibition Program of the São Paulo Cultural Center and at the 5th Sérgio Motta Prize for Art and Technology – Paço da Artes – São Paulo. In 2005, he was exhibited at Galeria A Gentil Carioca in the solo exhibition Engenhocas sonoras. In 2004, he was awarded the 5th Sergio Motta Prize for Art and Technology – as a completed work.
