eva!

Hey fellows! I’m glad to see you that we’ve just had a cool meeting with our friend Elstump. With her help we’ve revised a new and ass-kicking screenplay. The coolest thing? You’re going to watch an original experimental short movie from the Gang in less than one month. Yikes!

So, there’s a very important task for you my friends. We really need you to support Mr.What’s 3d sounds experiments because we’re going to involve the latest holophonic sound techniques in our short. Man, it’s gonna be a lot of work!

Support the gang now! Look how we are cute while working!

A touching capture. To be an artist in Italy means you will not be able to afford a decent phone and a real notepad at the same time!

Btw, while we’re working hard I wish to share with you something that Mr.What has recently found. C’era Una Volta a Roma (Once Upon A Time In Rome… And no, it is not a coincidence) is a massive event promoted by Red Bull Music Academy. The juicy thing is that all-star musicians from all over the world had been directed to perform the music of the most awesome Italian cult movies. The event featured fresh and witty artists such as Musica Nuda, which we really love.

Fair enough for now. I will keep you up to date step-by-step my friends. See you soon!

Now I’ve something new and it sounds cool. A bunch of associations are working the develop a massive exhibit which will feature artists of many kind. From photography to ballet, music included. So, what are you waiting for?

Palazzo Rosso a Genova.

The exhibit is going to take place into one of the most amazing historical buildings of Genova: Palazzo Rosso (literally, the red palace). The event will last from December 7th until the 8th and, most important, all the money raised will be donated to the people of Genova struck down by the flood!

If you are interested into arts I warmly suggest you to come and visit the exhibit! For further informations you can mail the gang or ask directly to one of the associations managing the event: Laboratorio Probabile Bellamy, Alma Musica, Balletto di Liguria and Count Basie Jazz Club.

See ya!

Genova’s flood emergency is finally over. Unfortunately, after several days of heavy rains the city now looks quite different.
Then, while Italy is living through dramatic times, some people are volunteering to give back to Genova its original beauty. They’re normal people like us but we call them angeli del fango, angels of the mud. They’re working all day long. For free. But when they come back home they find it’s not over yet. This big cleanup is not enough.



These people are our heroes. Thanks guys


You should know that after the flood catastrophe many people got - way too much - angry with the local major, Marta Vincenzi, questioning its effort. But the real causes of this disaster lie deeper underground. We are living just now the consequences of years of widespread blindness. That is it.
Nowadays nobody in Italy is happy, but again the solution to people’s real problems is coming from below. And it’s a hard work, but we all still believe because “it can’t rain all the time”. [Eric Draven from “The Crow”, 1994]

Run tourist, run!

It is happening again. For the second time in one week a heavy cloudburst is releasing its waterloads on the region of Liguria, the Italian Riviera. The Bisagno River, which generally is crappy and full of rats, is right now starting overflowing. Shit!

It was a sort of announced disaster for Genova because every year we have to face heavy rains. So, this Autumn the township has unvealed its brand new feature to get the money to face the problem: new fee parking areas all over the city. That means that now you can pay a year’s subscription to enjoy the privilege to see your car been taken away by the fury of Nature.

Unfortunately there are bigger matters than save my car from become a poor man’s yacht. The town of Monterosso al Mare too is right now living through terrible times because of the floods.

The flood

Since local weather forecast predicts stormy conditions until tomorrow’s night seems we will have to wait while everything is getting worse.
…We hope Italy will start to answer its people’s real needs soon.
