Paolo Conte in concerto a Firenze - video
Paolo Conte è tornato a incantare il pubblico fiorentino, nel magnifico scenario di piazza della Santissima Annunziata, a pochi metri dal Duomo, ospite del Musart Festival. Tutto esaurito sei anni fa e tutto esaurito venerdì. Oltre 3.000 persone hanno applaudito l’artista astigiano, che ha ricambiato con una scaletta intrisa di brani amatissimi come Aguaplano, Sotto le stelle del jazz, Dancing,…

Col cavolo che mi metto a scegliere tra il live e la versione in studio di 'sta bellezza. Tutte e due, per la miseria!
Ma come fa Paolo Conte, come fa

La polifonia radicale di Max Porter nelle contraddizioni tematiche di Lanny
La polifonia radicale di Max Porter nelle contraddizioni tematiche di Lanny
di Davide W. Pairone Lo scrittore britannico Max Porter La sfida più ambiziosa per la narrativa contemporanea è, forse, riuscire a raccontare storie attraverso e oltre lo sguardo umano. Mentre scienza e filosofia ci descrivono un mondo non-sostanziale, non fatto di oggetti ma composto da molteplici intelligenze (animali, vegetali, geologiche) in relazione, la letteratura è chiamata a…

Tina. Storie dalla Grande Estinzione
E’ uscito in questi giorni (27 ottobre 2020), il romanzo collettivo dell'Antropocene, Tina. Storie dalla Grande Estinzione (in cui ho contribuito nello spirito e con un mio scritto).
La Grande Estinzione. La fine dell'Antropocene. Il collasso climatico, economico, infrastrutturale, sanitario, cognitivo che incombe sulle nostre fragili e complesse civiltà. La radicale messa in discussione del nostro status biologico e culturale sul pianeta: è il tema fondamentale del nostro tempo, il tema che ha ispirato TINA, l'autore-collettivo di questo libro. Un progetto che ha coinvolto più di 100 fra artisti e scrittori, per una raccolta di micro-romanzi e illustrazioni ispirati a scenari apocalittici, trasformazioni epocali, shift tecnologici e culturali. Dal Collasso dell'Età del Bronzo alle nanotecnologie, dalla Peste di Atene alla geoingegneria passando per la Brexit, l'ultimo albero sull'Isola di Pasqua, l'incontro tra Montezuma e Cortés, ?ernobyl'. Decine e decine di eventi X e cigni neri collegati tra loro da snodi tematici, connettivi logici, squarci visionari, inneschi di una reazione a catena fra scienza, narrativa, immaginario, capacità di pensare l'impensabile. TINA è un autore collettivo coordinato da Matteo Meschiari e Antonio Vena. Il nome ricorda e omaggia Tina Michelle Fontaine (1999-2014), una ragazzina nativa del Canada uccisa a 15 anni: una microapocalisse che fa parte dei tanti genocidi a bassa intensità con i quali scompaiono individui, lingue, tradizioni, mondi, possibilità. TINA è anche un acronimo: There Is No Alternative, rovesciamento dello slogan usato da Herbert Spencer, Margaret Thatcher e Francis Fukuyama per giustificare il regime neoliberista che ci ha condotti sulla soglia dell'abisso, alla fine della storia.
Esce per Aguaplano e tutti i diritti saranno donati a Extinction Rebellion Italia

Appello musicale
Datemi retta. Ignorate questi buoni a niente che si atteggiano a cantanti. Non hanno idea di cosa significhi cantare. E i loro presunti brani fra una ventina d’anni si saranno persi nel nulla da cui erano emersi. Rivolgetevi altrove. A quelli che cantavano sul serio. Quelli come Charles Aznavour l’armeno, che ha dedicato due splendide canzoni alla bellezza del ballo (Quel che non si fa più) e al dramma del tradimento (Ed io tra di voi). Quelli come Paolo Conte l’avvocato, che ci ha incantato con Azzurro, Genova per noi, Onda su Onda, Aguaplano, Gli impermeabili, Parole d’amore scritte a macchina (solo per citarne alcune). Quelli come loro, insomma. Mica come questi qua.

House A, Johannesburg
House A in Sandhurst, Johannesburg Real Estate Project, South African Home Photos
House A in Sandhurst, Johannesburg
7 Dec 2020
House A
Architects: Daffonchio and Associates Architects
Location: Sandhurst, Johannesburg, South Africa
photo © Candace Marshall Smith
The brief for House A was to create a family home with generous, open spaces which spill out to the garden. Despite the classical style, the spaces are kept both open and relevant due to the flow between them, an abundance of natural light, and a pared back palette.

The main entrance in the center of the house is a bright, double volume space with a cathedral ceiling and dormer windows which flood it with light. The staircase rises through the center of the room, with a frameless glass wine room below it.

The interior palette is mostly monochromatic with an abundance of natural materials and textures. The floors are white oak herringbone, the walls bagged plaster painted off white. The cabinetry in the living area is a combination of white oak and off white and charcoal duco, with honed Zimbabwe black granite countertops in the kitchen. The interiors were design by Tessa Proudfoot and exude a chic warmth, there is a sense of old world charm that is in turns countered and complemented with more modern pieces and fittings.
The timber door and window frames were painted charcoal so that they visually recede, thereby drawing the eye out towards the garden. The concrete columns have been kept raw, and the fireplace hearths were built with reclaimed red refractory bricks.
Bay windows on both the ground floor and first floor bring in maximum daylight, while extending the indoor spaces outwards. In the main bathroom, a silver freestanding bath was placed in the bay, enabling one to take full advantage of the views and enjoy them from the bath.
All exterior walls are thick cavity walls, which provide excellent insulation year round, and also allow for deep, tapered window and door reveals. On the north side of the house, the entire living area opens onto an extensive verandah through a series of arched doorways. On the first floor, the main bedroom, a second bedroom and the study area on the landing all lead onto a covered patio by means of folding stacking doors.

Previously, the garden was quite detached from the previous house, as it sloped steeply away from the house. The landscaper, Tim Steyn, imported a large quantity of fill in order to raise the garden level to connect it to the house. From the northern verandah, one walks out onto a flat lawn, which gently steps down to a huge oval shaped lawn by means of sculpted grass embankments. Both the house and garden were designed with the view of retaining and celebrating the established trees on the site. On the west side of the house, a sunken fire pit with built in seating is tucked into the landscape below an existing jacaranda tree.
On the east side, the pool was built on the same level as the verandah, and reflects a row of existing cypress trees along the eastern property boundary.
This is an unusual project for Daffonchio in terms of look & feel, what was the client brief & did you have any reservations in taking it on?
We sometimes enjoy a classic design, it is refreshing doing something different, we don’t need to take ourselves too seriously and become extremists of minimalism. We prefer minimalism but it is just one of the many architectural languages of these postmodern times.

Despite any possible reservations with regards the building typology, what excited you most about the project when you were initially called in to pitch? It is a great site in a secluded suburb and the clients are a truly beautiful family so we were eager to be a part of the process with them… besides, creating a dream home is always fun!
How is the project unique? Enrico: I love the secret passage between the library and the kitchen: a piece of the library swivels on itself- it’s unexpected in a modern build and yet adds another layer to the space, and the garden is sensational. It was designed and planted by Tim Steyn, he retained the existing large trees and made use of mass plantings in the beds he’d created to give the space depth.
Were there any traditional design or building practices that you employed during this creative process to retain the authenticity of the original building?
Yes, we looked to the Parktown and Westcliff corrugated roof homes of Johannesburg in the early 1900’s for inspiration. The honed carved sandstone entrance makes for a spectacular introduction to the space.
If this house had a soundtrack, which 2 or 3 songs would best represent the space? What wine or cocktail pairs best with this house or is there a meal you’d most like to have served there?
Otis Redding; “These arms of mine”, Paolo Conte; “Aguaplano” and Jazz; maybe Charlie Parker
this would be accompanied by Laphroaig, 10 years old, on the patio, on a clement spring evening.

What piece/s of art do you feel would live most comfortably in this home? Deborah Bell, Mongezi Nkapayi and Thomas Baines. A study of the old Southern African landscapes by Baines, from his expeditions with David Livingston to highlight the interiors by Tessa Proudfoot. “Artemis” by Deborah Bell, a large scale bronze work would live beautifully in the gardens, and Mongezi Nkapayi’s work would juxtapose perfectly against the Colonial building style.

“Certo c’è stata
loggiù una storia molto complicata…
un piano a coda lunga in alto mare…
E dove c’è un piano
baccano,
ci sono occhi che si cercano,
ci sono labbra che si guardano…
Non mi fido,
in certi casi un pianoforte è un grido,
ci sono gambe che si sfiorano
e tentazioni che si partano.”
- Paolo Conte, “Aguaplano”

E dove c'è un piano
Intorno c'è sempre gente che fa baccano
Ci sono occhi che si cercano
Ci sono labbra che si guardano
Non mi fido
In certi casi un pianoforte è un grido
Ci sono gambe che si sfiorano
E tentazioni che si parlano...
Paolo Conte, “Aguaplano”
