History of Sicily in one hundred seconds

July 10th, 2008

After a two-months work, i can finally publish my last short documentary: the animated doodle “History of Sicily in one hundred seconds”.
As the title suggests, it’s a fast-run across a pressing and hyper-compact narration.
Those who knew little or nothing about the events told, will be surprised by the great number of conflicts, wars, monarchies, dominations, martyrs and crimes that plagued the island in millenniums.
I advise to not blink your eyelids as you watch the video: you risk to loose a whole century.

Also available in high quality or on youtube in lower quality.
Original Italian version here.

Wallpapers: Traces of life

June 23rd, 2008

I just posted a new wallpapers collection, “Traces of life”.

All the pictures were taken with a biological microscope, and then brightly coloured.
They are mostly images of a strawberry, a tangerine and a pea.

Here’s the link.

“Paradox” as cover art for Materializm

June 3rd, 2008

Materializm is an Australian netlabel that releases free music and supports underground music as well as visual artists for cover designs.
I joined the project, and the album Absolutely Spotless by Kondencuotas Pienas features one of my designs as cover art.

Absolutely Spotless by Kondencuotas Pienas

The genre is what I’d call “daylight D’N'B”, or “D’N'B for the summer”!

Oh, Kondencuotas Pienas means condensed milk in Lithuanian.

End of an old unfinished project

April 1st, 2008

Some time ago I moved house, and I had to leave this painting on the wall of my room. It was unfinished, but I took a picture of it.

Jungle

Now I’ve turned that picture into a vector illustration, and after about ten years the project is over!

Here you can see the final image.

I cento corpi del film

March 29th, 2008

(If you can’t read this, then this post isn’t for you!)

Ho deciso di rendere disponibile on-line il testo completo della tesi con cui mi sono laureato al D.A.M.S. di Bologna.
I cento corpi del film: nuovi schermi per il cinema digitale.
La ricerca prende avvio dalla fine dell’identificazione tra il film e il suo supporto in pellicola, per poi orientarsi verso gli stravolgimenti che il cinema digitale comporta per l’apparato produttivo più tradizionale.
