Istanbul, Turkey
In the Meanwhile...
I didn't follow the details about this widespread
protest in Turkey. I guess I am with the rioters,
but I don't know enough to express any meaningful
thought on the matter.
One thing that is clear to me, is this fact that
these riots are incredibly photogenic. If you
Google under "Istanbul News", a flood of
(photographically) stunning images comes out.
In the last months/years we had riots in Cairo, in
Tripoli, all these so-called "Arab Springs". To
launch a civil war in the Instagram age, is
definitely an interesting theme to think about.
Anyway, back to Istanbul I don't know why and
how, but surely the revolutionar art director is a
cool chap.

Sassuolo
Raw Edges at Mutina
First stop of our tour of ceramic world is atMutina. A very fascinating (new) company, based
inSassuolo.
http://www.mutina.it/
Very interesting business model: no machines, no
workers. They have Patricia Urquiola as art-
director, a team of talented designers who come
up with new series on regular bases + a network of
local contractors (terzisti) who are activated uponnecessity.
You can have an innovative product, or you can
have an innovative business model (or both).
Mutina is fascinating beacuse it deals with ceramic
tiles like contemporary fashion business. Lots of
new (fashionable) series, quick production, lean
logistic.
Nice trip with Elena Mfoirr, Elio Caccavale, Alberto
Iacovoni,Laura Negrini,Lucia Giuliano, Aurora
Rapalino, Marco Lampugnani, Ko Sliggers + several
others

Mangiarottiis alwaysboumboumboum!
InMutina, they haveall kind ofvery interesting
tiles and collections and posh stuff. Of course,
being myself an architect, I was very impressed by
their headquarters. An industrial sbang, built on a
concrete system patented by Angelo Mangiarotti in
the 1960's.
Of course, Patricia Urquiola. We all love
Bouroullec brothers and Tokujin Yoshioka. Raw
Edges, we seen them before. But, finally, Angelo
Mangiarotti rules!

Sassuolo
Phenomenon
"...In this collaboration with Mutina, I have
pondered in designing ceramic tiles, which express
the textures of the material derived from nature.
My intention is not to manipulate the appearance
of nature, but to create a design, which stirs one's
heart and imagination and remains deep inside
one's memory.
'Phenomenon' integrates small substances and
produces both depth and expanse. various
expressions, such as honeycomb, snow crystal,
icicle, plant cells evoke one's memory of the
scenery in nature. the flooring series, 'snow',
adopt the texture of japanese paper.

Alexandropolis, Greece
Altars for Known Religions
Barbara Ghellaand Ghenadie Belan are proceeding
on in their Milan - Bangkok trip. Now they are in
Greece.
Here one of those typical roadside altars (there
are thousand of them all over the Balcanic road
system). Every time you have an accident (no
matter if you die or survive), you (or your family)
has to mark the place with a votive offer. Very
interesting indeed

Marazzi
Effetto Legno
(Wooden Effect)
The most impressive thing out of our visit at
Marazzi, is this new (extremely advanced)
product. It took them years, but they were finally
able to produce a ceramic tile that looks like
wood. Very perfect effect. Digital print + 3d effectfor a perfect result.
This is very interesting. Because they produce
million of these tiles, and people really like (buy)
them.
From technological point of view it is perfect.
From commercial point of view, it is even more
perfect. The only thing that is odd is this fact that
all this story goes against any possible design

Murder is my business.
Weegee was the pseudonym of Arthur Fellig (June
12, 1899 December 26, 1968), a photographer
and photojournalist, known for his stark black and
white street photography.
Weegee worked in the Lower East Side of New
York City as a press photographer during the 1930s
and '40s, and he developed his signature style by
following the city's emergency services and
documenting their activity.
Much of his work depicted unflinchingly realistic
scenes of urban life, crime, injury and death.
Weegee published photographic books and also
worked in cinema, initially making his own short
films and later collaborating with film directors
such as Jack Donohue and Stanley Kubrick.

Atomium
Stefi goes to Bruxelles...
Tomorrow I go for three days to Bruxelles toexplain to EU people what we are doing (between
Whoami, Design 101 and other various things
related to new forms of education).
Very excited (I am). Because I will go up theAtomium (never been there before).
What I will talk about? Having to make a concise
description it could be something like:
Confucius taught us a very simple truth: "If I hear,
I forget. If I see, I remember. If I make, I
undertstand". This was true 2500 years ago as well
as today.
But today we have new and social media. Does this
imply some changes in the above mentioned truth?
What kind of changes? Positive, negative, both?
Think to McLuhan. "The medium is the message" hesaid.
But, what happens when the community becomes
the message?
