Privacy by design: the design in favour of privacy

  The laws on privacy isn’t enough when we talk from a technical and design point of view of information applications because not all data and neither the cookies are essential.  As user and beta test in some online platforms I took care of this point particularly from the technic point of view.  Always placing the blame solely  on users the question it isn’t the right direction and neither to block the access to the service because we haven’t accept cookies for marketing pourpose it isn’t correct.  The aspect from technician, also in the beta, is more complex.  Particularly in some professional ambits almost we are daily immersed in the technologies and we cohabit, in many cases, also in the night.  The technology in many cases interact with the technologies nearby and it’s necessary of interoperability. This point doesn’t mean that it’s necessary to pass all but it’s enough the essential personal data and the permission of user in connection to the r...

Commercial brand: where do you come from and what do you represent?


In a previously post I have talked about persona branding, the brand borns and grows up with the person. 

Among the things planned for artistic pseudonym there was a provision, if necessary, for a possible change of plans for others necessities of trade type. It's happened that in consequence of my entry just in the trade sector and marketing I have opted for a change of plan on brand name. 

It’s born so SPAZIOFORMADSGN, a new visual identity that it has the scope to lead the artistic experimentation into trade level with graphic patterns for design. 

It’s related to the official pseudonym from the root and features a contracted alteration on the last word related to the usability with technologies and platforms of marketing for which the official pseudonym as visual artist was too lenght. 

The words that compose it are always the same “SPAZIO” “FORMA” “DESIGN” but the last word is in a contracted form “DSGN”. 

In the evolution from architecture and art to design I have preferred the contracted form because it’s corresponded better to technical characteristics and marketing needs also to release completely the commercial area from the visual artist that it interested in artistic experimentation. 

I would say there and back from design considering already as contestant in the competition I was interested in industrial design. 

How would be a brand that it have to keep a free market and have to be visionable and indentifiable soon in the commercial sector? 

I would say related to the person that it starts the activity but not necessary to its name and surname because also in the businesses some pseudonyms goes right in comparison with the real name. 

We must remember  always that we can speach of trade we can meet the taste and the necessities of consumers and the sperimental art cannot be always the right pattern for design. 

A design have to be not only attractive but also reproducible from technical point of view and the brand have to represent the thinking line of the founder but not necessary it have to tie to its personality. 

In the case of an artist the pseudonym represents the thinking line of the visual-artistic experimentation but in the design some sperimentations are not possible. 

The commercial brand keep something from that thinking line but being trade obviously take a look to another point of view: the merchandising and the consumers which the product is addressed.

Creative and security information specialist: the indipendence is an imperfect world of freedom

  I was hoping don’t write again a critical post on some arguments because this publication is born with a different purpose, but the persistence of events not related to my will oblige me to write again a critical post. The indipendence and the freedom of thinking taught me by my parents, in south of Italy they often clashed with events didn’t depend from my will but from the circumstances where the diversity and the creativity aren’t view as an added value that can innovate a process for the improvement of society.  Before me, many independent creatives and ethical hackers have talk about this subject, I could have to refrain to speak but I’m a creative coder and sometimes I don’t accept the interference of some people that aren’t in the sector of creativity and computing.  Many people define itself “creative”or “security information specialist”, also when it’s not so.  A client call a physician, a lawyer or an accountant because you need of that professional worke...

To be a self-employed worker: expenses of starting activity and management

  Among the many things as self-employed worker I have inserted for ATECO codes, the main activity interested me more at the level of analysis and professional development.  It’s about organization and management not only for that I have built as visual artist, but also and expecially for the important step towards consultancy to third parts.  Among the many analysis in these years of self-employed worker I retain of particularly importance the expenses of starting activity and the expenses of management of the activity.  The expenses and the management aren’t indifferent and they are essential to understand the probabilities to hold not only the national market but also and expecially the global market.  It’s a way to evaluate the possible earnings commensurate to the management in the time and to evaluate the feasibility of self-employed work. Either in the case of starting the activity or management, the main cost is the official headquarters either for studi...

Notes from creative journeys: “The thinking behind design”

  I begin again to write after a long time of silence and after I have kept at a safe distance the world of writing. It’s not easy to return on one’s steps, especially if you are a visual creative who uses the writing for the necessary to explain the own projects.  It’s hard to explain to people who read you, the reasons which take you to open a publication on web, it’s hard to not think how you can make known the arguments each time you will discuss if you know these arguments are not common but there are few people interested them.  I think the first post must be a preface on what we would like write in the following posts. It must represent our imaginary line on which to pin down the topics we would like to talk about, a reference for all those times we lose sight the pourpose for which to write, a note to be read every time it’s missing the reasons to continue, an engagement to be revise to the need to reorganize own work in a new viewpoint and under new scenary....
