About Me

digital avant garde
Cool(?) Indipendent italian artist-filmaker-multimedia designer. I don't care too much about the media i'm using to express my feelings (or help my partner expressing theirs)... I just try to pickup the most appropriate, time by time. it's great beeing indipendent. But It would be better joining a bigger studio, to have the chance to partecipare to bigger projects, sharing point of views and experience with very competent people- I'm very friendly and smiling-sunny person, don't get scared from my pic :) I'm proud of my dreams, of this ethernal stumbling we call ";;life";;. i have a website with my stuff, If you're interested check it out! :) www.kurageart.com

Inizio dalla Fine , videoteatro

YOU MUST COME
18 June- Teatro Manzoni - Roma 21 PM
WATCH ! the video LOOKING FOR SPONSOR - PRODUCER FOR MY NEW SHORT!!!- ODYSSEUS_ NOBODY
Project of my new shortmovie (about 12 min)
";;Odyssus- Nobody";;

This work , using the visual language of the Futurism, will have a much higher sensitive impact on the viewer, giving more ";;intimists emotions";;, or strong feelings (it won't be ";;odd";; as giocattoli Futuristi).
It will be very positivist, taking odyssues as the example of human race walking on his path ... but it will also make think about even more important values for a human beeing than just follow ";;virtus and knolewdge";;
It will be about 12 minutes long.
If you're interested to produce-sponsor the project please contact me (click on contact me, leave your email address on email field and your message... sorry.. I'm tryng avoiding spam!)

My Interests

making art, reading, meeting new people from new cultures, expanding my horizons, keeping my soul. Listening musics, enjoyng this life as it goes

I'd like to meet:

"Ideally"Anyone who likes art and doesen't care too much about money and feels they are more importants values in this life. Anyone who thinks that is bad tryng to change a person we love. Anyone who wanna be listened and listen and thinks that the simples joys, such taking a walk, or seating relaxed on the beach are the bests."Professionally"Anyone to collaborate with to create togheter something good. I'm also always looking for new musics to use for my works... or people who wish to collaborate with me, to help me in other aspects of my work, such material-technical help, business, exposition, public relationship, producers, composers, etc. To avoid missunderstanding, I think it would be better to specify one thing: I won't make a video music for bands for free, I won't animate your project for free, I won't make a video installation with YOUR works for free, I won't give away my art for cd covers or whatever for free. These all are commercial purpouse.I'll be Interested in making new video clips for Bands or for live show, exhibit and events... I love beeing multiform and always tryng a different stylistic approach... New contaminations are always welcome.I'm mainly a multimedia designer, so, what I'm supposed to do is to matherialize-explicitate other people dreams..

Some new style experiments for seoul film festival opening animation

Music:

mmm internationally I think "QUEENS" , John Lennon, Dead can walk, Vangelis, Bob Marley, Beethoven, Bach, Vivaldi. In italy, Fabrizio de Andrý, Guccini, Baglioni, Battiato, De GregoriFavorite Song It changes pretty often, following my emotional status. At this moment "INNUENDO" (QUEENS)

Movies:

Little big man, Barry Lindon, 2001 A space Odyssey, "Cavallette" from Bruno Bozzetto,

Television:

TG4 , walker texas ranger... Very good stuff to relax :)

Books:

i'm currently reading "Solaris" from Stanislav Lem.... loving it, very inspiring

Heroes:
