Fabio Emilio

I never met anyone I would have liked to be.

About Me

I hold my Master's Degree in Information Engineering. I'm going to leave for Davis, California, on September 2007. I will pursue my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Davis. I am a little bit scared, but very excited as well! Home | Browse | Search | Invite | Film | Mail | Blog | Favorites | Forum | Groups | Events | Videos | Music | Comedy | Classifieds

My Interests

I am very keen on theatre, especially on Dario Fo's plays. I have played several comedies acting in the "Theatrical Company of Murano" directed by Lino Toffolo.

I'd like to meet:

Groucho Marx, Ettore Petrolini or another bloody clever comedian of the 30s.

Music:

U2

Movies:

8&1/2 by Federico Fellini. I like Vittorio De Sica, Rossellini, Visconti, Ingmar Bergman. Of the Americans Woody Allen, Tarantino, Soderbergh and very few others.

Television:

Television sucks.

Books:

Every book by Charles Henry Bukowski, especially his novels. I like Hemingway and some of the italians too: Fenoglio, Moravia, Pasolini.

TOEFL, GRE

Yeah, I took both GRE and TOEFL. Milano sucks: it succeeds in being grey even on sunny days. One of the roads near the Bovisa is called "The Bridge". Obviously there is no water flowing under it. It i...
