This year Ars Electronica has been very special for many aspects. Not only because of the presence of Toshio Iwai as featured artist (great guy) and the wonderful excursion at the amazing St. Florian Monastery, but because I had finally the opportunity to meet in person one of my gurus and, from last year, favorite teacher John Maeda (who knows him knows that he doesn’t come so often in Europe), and I have been with so many interesting people. Starting from my trip mate Chris and his friends Nako, Ruairi, Seulki and Stefan, passing by friends I didn’t see for a while like Andy, Golan, Marius and Paolo, ending with people I really hoped to meet and I did, like Joel Baumann (Tomato) and Massimo Banzi (IDII). I don’t think that it could have been a more grateful social experience than this.
But what about the festival itself? You can start watching my pictures and videos from there and if you want to know more, you have to wait the detailed article I will write soon for idearium.

Is there anyone that will go in Linz at Ars Electronica this year? Just a month is remaining and many friends of mine are still unsure if to come. If you’ll be there, please drop me a line.

My very awaited holiday has already finished and I’m back in London ready for a very intensive fall/winter. For who may concern, here a selection of pictures taken during the travel. As I already said, stay tuned because many projects I’m working on are going to be published soon!

Today I came back after my first Ars Electronica. Althought Linz is a very small town, it was really exhausting walking to all the venues around trying to optimize my short trip.

It was a big pleasure to meet old friends and other very interesting people. It really seamed the place to be and fortunately I was there this time. If I will go there again the next year, I’ll try definitely to stay longer

Here the very few shoots I captured there.

I put online the photos made from me during my holidays in Sestriére in winter. They regard mainly the triks made with the snowboard from me and my friends… check them out here!
