"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."

Valory

Anche quest’anno la Design Week ci lascia pieni di spunti, ispirazioni, emozioni e con un forte mal di testa.
Non ho purtroppo tempo di parlarvi di tutte le cose meravigliose che Milano ci ha regalato in questa edizione: usciranno bellissimi articoli, come sempre, su Interni e Elle Decor.

Voglio però prendermi un istante per parlavi di qualcosa di inaspettato in cui mi sono imbattuta all’NH-hotel. Si tratta di Valory, un’app di orientamento per giovani dai 16 ai 26 anni nata a Udine come strumento di supporto psicologico e rapidamente evolutasi in qualcosa che si pone l’obiettivo di dare ai nostri ragazzi una voce a tutto tondo. L’ente dietro a Valory è una start-up innovativa a vocazione sociale, che si occupa di servizi di supporto all’istruzione e, come tale, potete immaginare come mai abbia catturato la mia attenzione.

L’app, naturalmente disponibile per Android e iOS, propone la creazione di contenuti di valore (una rarità, nell’era del meme e del re-post) e si pone l’obiettivo di aiutare i giovani a individuare le proprie passioni per trasformarle nel loro futuro professionale. Attraverso alcuni piccoli meccanismi di gamification, premia l’interazione e il coinvolgimento.

L’installazione all’NH, si presentava attraverso gli scatti Instagram dei suoi iscritti, ma proponeva anche, naturalmente, alcuni talk di orientamento sul tema dell’interior design.

Decisamente una realtà da tenere sott’occhio.

Chapter 3 After supper, when the visitors had gone, he went to his room and lay down on the sofa: he wanted to think about the monk. But a minute later Tanya came in. “Here, Andryusha; read father’s articles,” she said, giving him a bundle

Spooktober 26 – The Black Monk (1)

Anton Chekhov (1860–1904) was a Russian physician, short-story writer and playwright, and I’m not particularly fond of him, though he’s widely regarded as one of the greatest masters of modern short fiction and who am I to argue? His work is celebrated for its psychological

Beauty and Ugliness: an exhibition

A few pictures from the recently closed exhibition on Beauty and Ugliness as an aesthetic paradigma in which what’s ideal and what’s grotesque melt together as sides of the same coin. The exhibition featured works by Brueghel (lent from the other exhibition at Palazzo Reale),
