"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Piena di ammirazione per Caparezza

Nonché piena di una sorta di angoscia ancestrale. Perché il nuovo album di Caparezza è un bel ritrattino dell’Italia, la sua musica pouò piacere o non piacere (e personalmente non ci impazzisco), ma all’infilata delle tracce di Le dimensioni del mio caos non si può restare indifferenti, specie se come me si inizia ad avere l’horror vacui a vivere in Italia.
Tanto per cominciare, Le dimensioni del mio caos è un album che racconta una storia come il migliore De André, una storia folle tra operai che vanno a ballare in cantiere (con l’accezione di ballare che vi lascio scoprire), massoni con l’hobby (ops, la lobby) dell’edilizia, un uomo di mezza età con la sua metà che ne ha meno della sua metà, acqua privata (talmente privata che l’hanno privata ai condomini), cacca nello spazio (meglio così, staremo più larghi: extraterrestri, state attenti, è in arrivo, voi siete artisti, fate i cerchi nel grano, noi mandiamo…), novelli Ulisse che ascoltano fascinose blogger arrabbiate e, naturalmente, Luigi delle Bicocche. Una storia folle. Ed è la nostra storia. Godetevi la dimensione del nostro caos.

Kafka in the C-Suite: Bureaucracy, Resistance, and the Digital Turn

There is a scene, or rather a sensation, that repeats itself across time and professions: the quiet frustration of waiting for an answer that never comes, submitting an output whose purpose is unclear, knocking — figuratively or literally — on a door that leads only
