Under the surface
Since you came this far, you might as well look underneath.
The visible homepage is intentionally almost empty. Under it there are projects, notes, saved links and a few traces of how I look at digital things.
What lives under the paper
Not really a sitemap. More like a small room. If something catches your eye, go in.
A note that is not especially useful, therefore necessary If you are still here, the filter is working. Please do not make too much noise about it.

Projects and notes
Coffee Is Not Dead (Yet) is an independent zine about specialty coffee: paper, voice, photography and a light website that does not try to look more important than the thing it presents.

From the blog
Longer notes, older pieces brought back into shape and ideas worth keeping longer than a feed.

Saved things and a few well-made 404s. Click and you leave the site. On purpose.
Art History Project An art-history archive made less for rushing through answers and more for getting properly lost: images, essays, timelines and movements with a quiet entrance and a lot of depth. 
Mirabilia Coffee A selected specialty coffee subscription that explains things without turning tasting into an oral exam. Quieter, better. 
Nerdvana Shopping guides for travelling nerds: shops, routes, QR codes and maps. Useful like a small mission list. 
Marvel Qui l'errore diventa intrattenimento, come dovrebbe succedere quando hai un universo narrativo enorme da cui pescare. Molto brand, molto pop, abbastanza memorabile. Final score 8.7 
LEGO Una pagina persa che sa di LEGO senza dover spiegare LEGO. Funziona perché trasforma l'errore in gioco, ed è esattamente il tipo di coerenza che ci si aspetta da un brand così. Final score 8.3 
NASA Quando il contesto aiuta, bisogna usarlo. Una 404 spaziale ha già un vantaggio narrativo enorme: qui l'errore diventa quasi tema. Final score 8.3 Did something stay with you?
Write to me. Or buy me a coffee, at least that one is not metaphorical.
