Dear desert followers,

I'm so proud to announce that "A quiet desert failure" has been shortlisted as Jury Selection in the Art Division for the 20th edition of the Japan Media Arts Festival among 4034 submitted works from 88 countries . The festival will be held in Tokio in September this year.

Just want to give a big thank you to Fabio Angeli and Lorenzo del Grande for their great musical contribution and to Filippo Lorenzin & Kamilia Kard for having presented the project for the first time in the context of The Wrong - New Digital Art Biennale in 2015.

Peace
Love
The desert is coming

“Oh my God. Today I prayed for the internet” – WI FI performance in Piacenza

Internauts, friends, followers,

a few months ago (it was September) I presented for the first time a compilation video called "Oh my God. Today I prayed for the internet" in the context of the Livenel Festival in Piacenza organized by PLACENTIA ARTE.

In that occasion the video was distributed to the audience through a local wifi connection mounted on a travelling hearse.

The video has been transmitted first on a ritual procession to the followers of the hearse and then, as the hearse drove through the city for a while, to all the unaware town passerbies.

Well, now thanks to the help and the work of Marcantonio Lunardi and Ilaria Sabbatini

I can finally upload the video/photographic documentation of the event.
Hope you'll apreciate!

Wishing you well!

Hello World

The exhibition is a contemporary take on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and asks us to reconsider her warning, that scientific imagining and all technologies have unintended and dramatic consequences for us as humans and the world and what would be, in this context, the role of human imagination and the arts.

Participating artists:
AOS - Art is Open Source, Cristina Busto Alvarez, Equipo Sauti ya wakulima, Mary Flanagan, Carla Gannis, Genetic Moo, Fernando Gutiérrez, Lynn Hershman Leeson, Shulea Cheang, Gretta Louw & Warnayaka Art - Lajamanu, Regina De Miguel, Joana Moll & Cédric Parizot, Guido Segni, Karolina Sobecka, Alan Sondheim, Thomson & Craighead.

Performing my new work “Oh My God. Today I prayed for the Internet” on LIVENEL Performing Festival

Dear friends,

this sunday, in the context of the LIVENEL Performing Festival organized by PLACENTIA ARTE, I will stream my new work "Oh My God. Today I prayed for the Internet" through a public Wi-Fi hotspot mounted on an itinerant hearse car.

The public can paricipate at the event using a smartphone/tablet and following the hearse for a short distance. After that the car will continue his travel around the streets of Piacenza before it - and the WiFi signal - is definitely dispersed in town.

It will be a quite short event.
But it will be moving.
See you there!

The Artist is typing
Online exhibition at StorageUn.it

I just wanted to let you know that starting from today I will exhibit and perform my new online work "The Artist is Typing" on Storage Un.it, a small online space located in a storage unit @ arebyte Gallery in London.

Whenever you want, 24/7, you can check out me , my presence and, ultimately, my artistic aura in the intimate act of typing on my laptop keyboard writing art statements, press releases,  unpublished poetries, self-promotion emails, private love letters, amazon orders, google search queries, HTML code and many other keyboard-based activities.

After all, art is life and life is what happens while you are typing.

The online exhibition is curated by Filippo Lorenzin and will be hosted by Storage Un.it, a small project space located in a storage unit @ arebyte Gallery in London which  features a series of projects which take place online and investigate the relationship between the URL & IRL.
