About me

I work in a company in Verona as IT manager. I am also a student at the University of Verona, department of Computer Science. I am actively following its courses, sometimes I also work as a Web designer and Webmaster.

I am very interested in the Unix based operating Systems, such as Linux, Mac OS X and FreeBSD; and I develop this interest each day, you can find some info in my personal website.

I was born on December 8, 1985. My eclecticism is determined by the most variegated interests I have (in case you associate a colour to one each of them, as I do). If you are interested in who I am, check out my tag cloud and the communities am I in to get an idea.

  1. First comes Cinema and Filming techniques. I enjoy watching a film in its deeper meanings and look into it as much as I can. I also find myself living in a constant state of filming, anything I see and feel could be easily a film scene, mostly due to my photographic imagination.
  2. Then of course Music, my Last.fm profile defines pretty much my musical taste, so if you are interested in that you should take a look at that link.
  3. I believe Japanese animation to be strictly connected to Cinema, but I want to differentiate the two of them, mainly for one reason. Westerns (meaningless word, but understand...) do not consider a cartoon as much as a Kurosawa or a Fellini. Right, but only considering "Western" cartoons. Japanese anime are masterpieces as much as a film with actors in flesh and bones, believe me when I say there is a huge difference between a normal cartoon and an Anime.
  4. Since I was a kid I was interested in Drawings, though I am not very good at it I occasionally practice, juts for fun.
  5. My love for Philosophy started in high school, since then, it never left me.
  6. Then there is Computer Science, or should I say Informatics. You might think this is the end of the human sciences and the beginning of the technical stuff. To be honest I find that Computer Science at its higher level can be fused and connected with Philosophy, especially in fascinating subjects such as Fundamentals of Informatics.
  7. Political activism, see my Meetup profile.
  8. Expressions of freedom such as Parkour, Meditation and Martial arts.

In this site you shall find the papers I wrote, the offers for building and administrating a website, and also the specifics. If you happen to be interested, just contact me.
