Lorenzo Palmieri is a photographer who since 2013 collaborates continuously with some contemporary art museums, such as Pirelli Hangar Bicocca, PAC, GAMeC and some galleries, especially with Hauser and Wirth for site-specific projects in Italy and Raffaella Cortese in Milan, for whom he takes care of the archive since 2011. In recent years he contributes to the activities of the publishing house Electa, photographing anthological exhibitions of historical artists. At the same time, he carries out a project of portraits taken of artists met over the years.

I designed and developed a website for him that acts as a showcase for his enormous archive of work.

In this moment of a global pandemic, wherein movement on a worldwide scale has undergone a drastic reduction, the very idea of cultural journeys has undergone a transformation. In this new context, the dimension of journey opens up to possible, new sensorial destinations, where sound can represent a vector for the imagination and develop an immersive knowledge, both in terms of understanding cities, places and geographies as well as in relation to the study of cultures and languages.

Immersive Cities is a project specifically for the Italian language students of the Italian Cultural Institute of Melbourne, where the recipients will be guided by several sound artists to experience different Italian cities and the search for the sonorous identity of places, voices, cultures imagined and known through the study of language and experiences, now, through the immersive dimension of listening to soundscapes. However, there is scope for expanding the experience to include all those people who want to reach into the heart of the Italian soundscape and be immersed.

An idea created and developed by the Italian Cultural Institute of Melbourne, curated by Dr. Leandro Pisano.

Sharing economy has become extremely trendy among social-innovative consumers, as it describes the socio-economic paradigm shift from private ownership to joint and collaborative access to resources and services.In recent years, it has also taken hold in the transport sector, taking the name of ‘Mobility as a Service’. 

This trend, abbreviated as MaaS, introduces a new business model that responds to the increasingly insistent market demand for more dynamic, flexible and tailored urban mobility. Although many rural areas in Italy are close to developed regions, recent decades have seen a significant demographic decline as well as a very low digital penetration and obsolete infrastructures. Virtual and physical mobility increase can be seen as a response to depopulation and marginalisation. 

This thesis aims to verify the idea that mobility organisations could improve traditional territorial development policies. In particular, they could do so by placing more emphasis on the involvement of the local population in public transport services: a public service has to be designed around its users' needs, i.e. citizens. It is fundamental to include service users from the initial design phase, according to a human-centred model. Therefore the thesis scope will be to analyse the possibility of having new mobility in rural areas, adapting the MaaS framework to the new socio-economic context. During the project development, the focus will be placed on the critical issues and the emerging new perspectives while involving in the design process both institutions and users.

Chiara is a photographer based between Milan & Berlin. Her visual research revolves around the human body as a sculptural element. A close study on unique forms and features, often placed in run-down and unglamorous locations, aims at creating a surreal.

She asked me to design a portfolio that would allow visitors to interact with her works. The result is a colorful website with a simple drag interaction.
