Welcome and Thanks for visiting my home page.

 
I was born in 1968. Although I was far too young to remember, the keywords of that year were freedom, equality, free thinking, revolution. In early 70s many free radio stations had birth here in Italy because their young creators wanted to have a way for spreading their thoughts, ideas, emotions and tell the world that they were alive 'n kickin'.
The Internet today represents for me what free radio represented in the 70s. This page is here because of my need to tell everybody what I think, do, create. Herein you can find all I've been able to do in the last years that is my humble and tiny contribution to computer science (r)evolution. I was not born in 1968 by coincidence! Thanks for being here.
