THE THINKING BEHIND DESIGN

    Where do you start when you finish a course of study or you decide to show your own competences on a curriculum vitae for search a work?  Obviously from the name that you will present, but the creators (architects, designers and artists) would say you also from a portofolio online which you present your own works and an identity that it may not be your real first and last name.  As previously I said, the own first and last name aren't always the best choise to present you in the professional and/or commercial online world or in the reality.  It's necessary to think also the possibility to create a pseudonym and in these cases the creation of a pseudonym will follow us all the life as an identity also it supports the own real first and last name.  It's an important choise that sometimes it can predict a change of plans and therefore the artistic pseudonym can be in fact a commercial trademark.  Then in these cases we can do a question: what our pseu...

  " Even if done well, a copy is always a copy, the original is always original "   Art isn't only talent and/or study but it's also and especially experimentation and process of creation.  You can draw very fine, you can know all artistic techniques, you can have the best tools possible and imaginable, you can have a good sense for aesthetics and colors, but if you don't experiment and create your process of creation you are only a good professional man of art but you don't have personality.  The personality consents to distinguish you from others in the daily life and in any profession but it's fundamental in the art: it consents you to give a form to imagination, it consent you to imagine and give a form to the thinking through a mental process that it's a distinguishing sign of the artist.  That distinctive sign can be imitated but it will not be never like the original, you can copy an image and repeat the technique but never the process of creati...

  The accomplishment of a concept goes across a long way of many phase until the arrive of the product design to market where a client can buy it and the company can verify if the product collects the consent and the expetation of clients.  If a design competition represents a way to see a great deal of possible concept or not, the accomplishment of a marketable concept is rather different. In architecture it's known before of a preliminary project there is an important step that it's to have a committment and a real demand of the architectural project respondent to the necessity of a service for city or people.  In the design it's seems similar but the planning of an object is tied to the possible industrial production and if there isn't the market or clients for that product it's useles to begin a path for the concept design to the realized product.  To plan, any object or in any scale, it's a complex operation. It supposes a synthesis of function, technique, ...

  When we speak about art, all of you consider classical sectors as painting, sculpture, photography and cinema without thinking that also in the programming and in the math there is the development of new artistic paths in line with the graphics and the digital art. They suppose a background of knowledge more extensive lied to mathematical algorithms and complex computer programming.  If the experience in the fractal art allowed me to extend the artistic and mathematical competences, the generative art allowed me to put in practice this competences from the point of view of programming in a different way and in relation with digital graphics.  The common vision of both arts is in the fractal formulas on which is based the study of dinamic systems, in both cases we find the caos in the algorithms and only the designer decides how sets order.  The fractals are geometric object with the character of auto-similarity as defined from the chaos theory and are described as ...

  When I met fractals and fractal art, what aroused my interest were fractal patterns with their forms and geometric structure.  These graphic elements are suitable for studies on pattern in architecture and in industrial design and they have the feature of being creative pattern very artistic and useful for digital art and drawing fabric in the fashion design.  Their compositional relations, the way the form is repeated, and specially that patterns in which there are singolarity have been the object of my studies for many years before arriving at deconstructivism on digital images and in generative art.  The most interesting aspect of the fractal patterns are the variation of structure for the overlap of different structures, the iteration and interaction of the structures between them, or the optical effect of light and colors on the structures.  Among all fractal patterns my interests are focused on patterns have deformation points and show a graphic singu...

  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...

  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....
