Bio

I was born in 1982 in Conegliano (Treviso), after finishing studies as a surveyor at the Istituto Tecnico per Geometri Jacopo Sansovino in Oderzo I moved to study Civic Engineering in Udine in 2001. After two years of unfinished studies I attended the undergraduate courses in Industrial Design (claDIS, Corso di laurea di primo livello in Disegno industriale) in Treviso into the Design and Arts programme (fDA, facoltà di design e arti) at the Universitary Institute of Architecture of Venice (IUAV - Istituto Universitario di Venezia). After achieving the undergraduation degree in 2006 with the project Morpheus - helps you sleep, I started the courses for the MA in Visual and multimedia communications (clasVEM, laurea Specialistica in Comunicazioni visive e multimediali) which take place in Venice, into the IUAV institutes.

Current Studies

During the first three years of design I recieved a basic knowledge about industrial design and graphics, following studio courses with Michele De Lucchi, Angelo Micheli, Medardo Chiapponi, Artemio Croatto and Francesco Messina.
During the first year of MA I attended the studio courses of Corporate identity (held by Michel De Boher from Studio Dumbar) and Graphic and layout design (Enrico Camplani from Studio Tapiro). Then courses of Interaction Design Theory and Telecommunications (by Philip Tabor and Gillian Crampton Smith), Computer graphic applications (by Davide Riboli) and Psychology of Perception (by Giulia Parovel).
In the second year … (updates will come soon, my apologizes)

Jobs

In 2005 I worked for the Design Associati studio in Mogliano Veneto (Treviso) as graphic designer and did some other little works for friends.

Attitudes and interests

I spend most of the time with my pc, making graphics editing, illustration, networking (look at my profiles on other networks), discover new applications and coding (or, better: learning to code). I used to make audiovisuals with AVS (examples on my page on Deviantart), and if I still try to find the time to maintain this passion I’m actually moving more to web-oriented programming environments or high-level IDE like VVVV. I’m also fascinated by printing crafts and serigraphy.
