Official Policy

Authorship, Infrastructure, and Long-Term Responsibility

Sound for Images is a curatorial project dedicated to the creation and long-term preservation of original musical works associated with visual art.

This policy defines the principles that guide all activities, collaborations, and editorial decisions within the project.

1. Artistic Authorship

All musical compositions developed within Sound for Images are original works composed by Luca Bonaffini.

These compositions are conceived as an integral part of the artwork’s identity and are inseparable from the curatorial vision of the project.

Music is not treated as a decorative or interchangeable element, but as authored content designed to endure over time.

2. Proprietary Infrastructure

All musical works are hosted exclusively on proprietary servers owned and managed by Zanettistudios s.r.l., an Italian company active since 2002.

Sound for Images does not rely on commercial streaming platforms, third-party hosting services, or temporary digital solutions.

This infrastructure guarantees continuity, controlled access, and independence from platform-based distribution models.

3. Long-Term Commitment

Sound for Images assumes direct responsibility for the maintenance, accessibility, and preservation of musical content over time.

This commitment distinguishes the project from short-term or platform-dependent solutions and represents a cultural and ethical position.

Permanence is not treated as a technical feature, but as a form of responsibility.

Dedicated Digital Spaces

In selected cases, Sound for Images may curate dedicated digital spaces for artists or galleries.

These spaces function as exhibition and interpretative environments, not as independent archives.

All musical works remain archived on Sound for Images’ proprietary infrastructure to ensure continuity, responsibility, and curatorial coherence.

Licensing

Musical works are provided under a license of use defined on a project-by-project basis.

Ownership, hosting, and long-term preservation remain within the Sound for Images infrastructure.

Conclusion

Sound for Images is not a technological service.

It is a long-term cultural project based on authorship, responsibility, and permanence.

Rooted in an Italian institutional context active since 2002, the project reflects a commitment to continuity beyond temporary platforms and changing technologies.
