The Sea Horses on The Guardian!

In Autumn 2008, Alex Healey and me flew to the coast of Belgium and followed for five days two fishermen that are still fishing shrimps the way their ancestors used to fish: riding a horse. Alex filmed and edited what was happening, I did the interviews and sound. The Sea Horses documentary, produced by Fabrica, has been recently featured in the on-line version of the Guardian newspaper. Have a look at it.

Una famiglia fuori dal comune

Martedì prossimo 16 febbraio, poco prima di cena, leggo un racconto per ragazzi (illustrato da Elena Xausa) a Be Quiet Please, la serie di mostre ed eventi organizzati dai miei amici Marco Mucig e Annalisa Turroni nel salotto di casa loro in Via Resnati, vicino a Piazzale Cuoco, a Milano.

I Love You Too

I never evolved to the homo technologicus stage. When it comes to electronic devices, I use the few functions that I really need and very rarely venture into the reams of further widgets, games and tools hidden within the various menus. It was by chance that some days ago I found myself inside my mobile phone's Message Model folder. You probably know what I am talking about. It contains a series of pre-written SMS that you can send over to people when you are too busy to write a whole message. At the push of a button you can give…
