XY lab — WS in Castrignano de' Greci, Italy

I spent the last two weeks in Castrignano de' Greci participating to the XY lab workshop, organized by FF3300, Pazlab, Inuit and Dinamo Film.

X and Y are two workshops imprinted on new technologies and self-productions, the topics are: "new publishing" and "videomhacking", respectively.

"New publishing" is a research area that push through the processing design, the crisis with the consequent scarcity of resources, self-publishing and digital and analog craft and the awareness of the central role of networks in our existence. The decision to use the English word "publishing" instead of the Italian "editor" is dictated by the fact that the Anglophone word retains a sense inherent the act of publication, the process through which publishing is made. "Videomhacking", a neologism which describe the interaction between hacking, technological innovation and digital storytelling aimed to transform the way we tell stories through the video.

With Graziana Dammacco, I worked on the concept of "new" in the perspective of publishing and post-digital practices. We realized The Crossing Machine, a website that allows you to "cross" together 5 different parameters (instructions, contents, medias, technologies and time) to build a post-digital publishing project. It's like a game, so the process is more important than the result itself. The main aim of the project is to stimulate lateral thinking and to get awareness of limits and possibilities of publishing. 

The website will be online very soon.
