Riverscape, la musica neoclassica e la memoria dell'acqua: parla Fabrizio Paterlini
Giovedì 9 novembre Fabrizio Paterlini è tornato alla Conway Hall Ethical Society di Londra, questa volta accompagnato dal talento eccellente degli StringsTrio, per offrire al pubblico di appassionati uno spettacolo che si può definire multisensoriale, poetico. Lo abbiamo incontrato nel backstage poco prima del concerto, tenutosi in questa venue storica, dall’acustica ''calda'' e avvolgente.
Ad accoglierci per primo il suo manager, Augusto Casciani di ItaliaES, che ci ha scortati fin sopra al palco, arredato con un maestoso pianoforte a coda Bösendorfer. Fabrizio era sorridente, evidentemente immerso nel suo ''habitat''. Ci ha raccontato di lui, della sua musica e del suo ultimo progetto artistico, Riverscape, nato dalla collaborazione con la fotografa Kristel Schneider.
Riverscape è un dialogo tra la potenza immaginifica della fotografia e quella spirituale della musica, tra le memorie dell’acqua e quelle dell’anima. Un’esperienza immersiva, perpetrata attraverso il connubio di archi come andatura e pianoforte come profondità dei fiumi che parallelamente scorrevano attraverso le immagini e i filmati realizzati da Kristel Schneider, e riprodotti su grande schermo.
So che hai cominciato a suonare da giovanissimo. Mi puoi raccontare il tuo primo ricordo legato alla musica?
"Il mio primo ricordo legato alla musica è un brano che appartiene alla tradizione popolare delle mie parti – io sono mantovano – che è una specie di mazurca, un valzer diciamo, chiamato Ciribiribin! Che bel faccin. È stato tra i primi pezzi che ho imparato a suonare a due mani, quando avevo sei anni. Parallelamente, affrontai anche il primo brano ''serio’’, per così dire, che era A Whiter Shade of Pale dei Procol Harum. In realtà non è affatto complesso ma rimane un pezzo incredibile, che mi ha fatto appassionare agli anni ‘60 e ‘70. Decenni che adoro, musicalmente parlando".
Paterlini e il processo creativo: "Premo rec e aspetto ciò che l'ispirazione mi porta"
E invece il tuo processo creativo come lo descriveresti?
"Il mio processo creativo è abbastanza inspiegabile. Tanto per cominciare, io ho iniziato a scrivere musica molto tardi. Ho suonato per una vita la musica di altri. ...

The New Year Brings New Things!
First off, Happy New Year! I hope you are all having a wonderful 2021. Someone needs to. Anyway, some of you who are following me on Instagram and Twitter know a bit about some of the things going on (I sometimes forget to post to Tumblr, unfortunately, but I’m trying to do better).
Without going into a lot of detail about some of the rougher parts where my real personal life has been raining on my head, I’ll simply say that I’ve been extremely busy fandom-wise with zines, events, and projects.
Most of these projects have been art and design related regarding zines and some collaborations, but some of them have been writing projects of my own as well. I’m still writing on the 9 WIPs I’ve got going on (though only 4 are in the process of posting) and have gotten a lot done in between other commitments.
Just because you don’t see me posting, doesn’t mean I’m not busy doing the work. I haven’t been posting because I don’t write in a linear fashion. I can’t. I write scenes as they come to me along the plot outline.
Part of my not posting in Finders, Keepers, as an example, is a courtesy. The next chapter to post will end on a cliffhanger, and I want to wait until I’ve got the chapter after that ready so that I don’t leave it for over a month without the next part.
Nothing has been abandoned.
I pour so much of myself into my writing. It means a great deal to me, and I don’t want to write just anything to get something out there. I have stories I want to tell, and to do that takes a lot of working between different chapters to ensure the clues I’ve left early on match up with the progress that is made towards the end. It’s a bit of a juggle, but it’s how I like to write, and if you’re following my work, I think it’s safe to say that you might like it, too.
I miss posting regularly. I do. I miss the comments and interaction. I always sit up and wait to read comments (PAKIDGE?) after I post anything, but especially so with my longer fics that I’ve poured my entire heart and soul into. My art and writing is a lot of what keeps me going. You can usually tell when I’m in a funk, because I’ll have more projects lined up. It’s because I’m trying to find some sort of satisfaction in a world that I don’t necessarily fit into anymore.
It’s part of a complex coping mechanism, one I use to process a lot of the things I feel. Part of why I write so much angst is as a way to deal with things, but also, the more intense the writing, the more emotionally draining it is for me to do. You might notice that sometimes I will have little hiatuses here and there with writing, but then you’ll see little silly things I do art-wise pop up, such as my style-trial experimentations, or previews for things I can’t share publicly due to exclusivity periods.
As someone with severe anxiety and depression problems, these are the things I do to not spiral out into further despair.
As much as I love that people enjoy my writing, and I do so love that, when I get comments and messages telling me I need to be working on the fics, or asking when the next update is, or telling me they’re tired of waiting, or things like that, it makes me feel worse. I want to be able to get all of this out and done and be completely unaffected by it. I do. But the same emotions that I try to weave into my art and writing also weigh me down at times. Sometimes, it’s simple enough to brush off. Other times, especially when combined with many other things happening all at once, it’s suffocating.
On a lighter note, many of the projects I began in late 2020 are about to be completed, at least for the bulk of the work done on my part, and this will leave me with more time to work on things without deadlines.
When Finders, Keepers wraps up (That’s going to hurt, because I’ve truly loved writing those characters in ways I never expected) I have already written lot on O, Fortuna, and will start posting that, along with continuing in the Music and Manuscripts extended universe. I’ve been writing more about Crowley, Louis, and the rest of the demons in M&M: Soothe The Savage Beast, and have also begun work on Aziraphale, Raphael, Michael, and the other angels in M&M: Broken Wings. There is also backstory for the parents in M&M: Ciribiribin, and a new book in the Universe, but with a bit of a twist, and it will run concurrently with the main universe, M&M: Twist Of Fate. I’ve also started writing something entirely new outside of these, but it won’t be ready to publish until after Finders, Keepers completes, at least, and possibly some more on Celestial Spektors.
I’ve posted a new snippet for Finders, keepers on the WIPS page of my website if you’d like a sneak peek.
Please know that whether you read this entire wall of text or not, I love you all so much for following my work. I do understand what it’s like to get attached to a story and want to see where it goes. I’ve been there many times, myself. I’m so sorry that I haven’t been able to make each and every person who asks for more fic or more of a specific fic, or more of a specific art type, etc as happy as I would like to.
I am doing my best, but sometimes my best isn’t quite good enough, and I have to accept that. There’s a long road ahead, and I hope that you’ll stick with me through it.
Thank you for everything
Cyn

Wednesday Double: 9/23
Let me share some of my creative process with you: I usually make up my playlists about a week ahead. I come up with a “rough-draft” of what I want to play, then I’ll let it sit for a while, usually listening to it while doing other things. Then closer to the date, I’ll revisit it; putting it into a pleasing order, and sometimes changing tracks. Once in a while, I’m just not happy with how a set is turning out. That was the case with my set for Nat’s Jazz tonight, so last night I changed plans and created a whole new big-band set. The first-draft playlist got kicked to next week to give my DJ muse more time to play with it and make me happy, and the Big Band set was very popular.

3º Annual dell’Art Directors Club Italiano. 1988. @lupettieditori 📚 Oltre 300 pagine di meravigliosa creatività italiana, Made in Italy! Stampa periodica, fotografia, illustrazione (sì, si usavano anche le illustrazioni in pubblicità in quegli anni), stampa di categoria, materiali promozionali, pubblicità estera, radio, televisione e cinema, graphic design e corporate identity, packaging e art direction editoriale… oro, argento, bronzo, evergreen e ingresso (quelli selezionati per la competizione). Che meraviglia! Che visual! Che copy! Che grafica! Che layout! Che idee! La pubblicità italiana con la P maiuscola! E che firme creative! Che brand! Che budget! Che storia! Dopo la grande sperimentazione del “Carosello”, l’era patinata dell’advertising! Questo dovrebbe essere uno dei più vecchi volumi dell’Art Directors Club che ho in libreria. Ovviamente ne ho anche di americani, austriaci e inglesi (penso una decina di volumi di varie annate). Che senso ha sfogliarli ancora oggi? Beh! Sono stati anni incredibili per la pubblicità italiana, sono state prodotte idee che farebbero impallidire le pubblicità che ormai si vedono solo all’estero o su riviste come Archive. E quindi? E quindi niente, per me è fondamentale conoscere certi lavori, è una questione di cultura ed è molto stimolante per farsi venire nuove idee, anche se si pensa digital. Ovviamente “Ciribiribin Kodak”, “Io non lo ho mai provato Urrà” o “Atai Paraflu!” sono improponibili oggi, però se non avete mai provato la gioia, lo stupore e il divertimento di quegli anni, vi siete persi comunque qualcosa, un periodo storico che gridava a squarciagola “il futuro sarà meraviglioso!”. Che grande illusione gli anni ‘80… Ma che grande fortuna essere stati giovani allora! #booklover #bookstagram #everymonday ••• #chiani #artdirection #illustration #creativedirection #graphicdesign #brandidentity #branding #design #visualdesign #strategy #advertising #packaging #communication #concept #photography #managers & #designers #myartismydirection #designthinking @chianidesign #designboutique #vierijacopochiani #freelance #dontwasteyourpixels #creativecollective #2022 #vicenza (presso Chiani) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChRnInAr7nM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
