Matera
Another person I've met during these days at Casa
Netural is ms Patriza Capriotti. She is an architect
and she does a lot of self-produced things.
Here above, a series of (communist) paper bags.
Interesting. Here in Matera is strange. I have the
feeling that everyone is a designer or a maker or acraftsman.
Thanks toAndrea PaolettiandMariella Stellafor
letting me know all these various people...

Is a Craftsman...)

Matera
Bread Seal (Some More)
I've spent the whole morning with Emanuele
Mancini and Luca Colacicco, craftsmen in Matera.
They can make everything. Wood, ceramic, metal,
paper... With their hands and with their machines.
Quite impressive, indeed.
Very interesting hours. To explain me things, they
chose to show me the making of a bread seal. This
was used in the old times when there was a public
oven and each family would bake their own bread.
One oven, lots of different breads, there you
needed the seal to mark your own pieces.
Furthermore, there is an incredibly complex
metaphor system. The seal is the male part
(hence, it always carried male-related symbolism:
a cock, a lizard, a tower, etc.) while the bread
dough was the female part. To stamp the print
was in first instance a sexual metaphor referring

"The frottage notebook and the city": 3 days where
8 people went around Matera, representing the
urban space with the frottage technique!
DIARY WORKSHOP AT Casa
Netural
Having to think about a possible collaboration, we
agreed that papier-mache' is the material /
technique offering a lot of potential.
In 18th century they had paper but they didn't
have epoxy glues and resins. Neither software and
the digital technology.
A lot of possibilities in front of us. A chair in
paper? A table? A whole building?
To think to an architectural space made out of
paper, mixing up old and new technology, it looks
promising
Keep tuned for more!

Raffineria ENI Taranto
Oil Refineries
I really like oil refineries. Don't know why, and
also I can't explain exactly.
The one in Taranto (ENI), is quite impressive. I
should go back another time, to look at it during

Traghetto Caronte e Tourist
Caronte
One of the things I like the most of going to Sicily
is when I go by land.
This implies to cross the channel with a ferry boat.
Most of the times, a boat called Caronte (very
nice, isn'it?).
In Greek mythology, Scylla was a monster that
lived on one side of a narrow channel of water,
opposite its counterpart Charybdis.
The two sides of the strait were within an arrow's
range of each otherso close that sailors
attempting to avoid Charybdis would pass too
close to Scylla and vice versa.

Siracusa
Burial of Saint Lucy
When Caravaggio arrived in town, his first majorcommission was for the church that had been built
on the site of her death. The most common theme
of paintings of Santa Lucia was to depict her
martyrdom, but Caravaggio decided to paint her
burial.

Siracusa
From Athenaion to Cathedral
The cathedral (Italian: Duomo) was built by bishop
Zosimo in the 7th century over the great Temple
of Athena (5th century BC), on Ortygia island.
This was a Doric edifice with six columns on the
short sides and 14 on the long ones: these can still
be seen incorporated in the walls of the current
church. The base of the Greek edifice had three
steps. The interior of the church has a nave andtwo aisles. The roof of the nave is from Norman
times, as well as the mosaics in the apses.

Dildomaker
Austria-based designer Francesco Morackini hascreated the Dildo Maker, a pencil sharpener-like
device that will turn any object into the shape of a
penis.
Morackini suggests an almost limitless choice ofobjects to shape like popsicles, vegetables,
candles, or even a stick of butter, but cautions
that any soft object should be frozen before
shaping it with the Dildo Maker.
