Typography & Color don’t fucking matter.
Real human beings do not care about the space between the letter.
Fuck perfection. Perfection ruins things. Perfection stops you guys to start projects. Perfection stops you guys from finishing projects.
(Talking about a story on Hitchcock) How do you get such high performance of your actors? Hitchcock says: I remove the directorial process by Casting. – (Victor explaining the lesson that he learned) Oh, I get it! You ask the right person to do the job, and you let fucking do it.

For who doesn’t know Hillman Curtis he was a big point of reference during the early time of Flash when it was big. It was one of my favourite flash designer, because he was able to get the right entertainment & communication that other flash designer weren’t able to comprehend.

I am an extremely open person that loves a good conversation from silly talks or more serious one, but more than anything I love to be with happy people like me. I love to hug everyone, especially friends. Be aware! I always show my passionate southerner italian love to everyone.
I am a senior web designer, therefore I like everything that is creative and that is related to communications. I am really good at what I do, and I love to work hard to achieve the best result is possible. "Paying attention to the details" it is my motto. I'm interested by the incredible power of imagination of the humankind, and the way we describe, perceive and feel our thoughts and feelings. Recently I am trying to build a strong Barcelona community about web design. I am participating in various important web conference in England (Ampersand, Dconstruct, New Adventure of Web design), and always reading about design and technology solutions for the web.
Anyway, about reading, let's say that I do not read book. I devour them. I read more or less with a media of 2 or 3 books per month. Recently I am enjoying a lot reading on my Ipod Touch. Mainly fantasy or sci-fi, or books about my work, even so sometimes I love to read about some good italian writers like Tiziano Terzani, Italo Calvino or Primo Levi. Still love italian and latin literature quite a bit.
Extremely passionate about good author of movies, comics, videogames and obviously good rock and roll music. Even if doesn't look like, I love to travel (especially slow travelling, so I can assimilate better traditions and cultures). For travelling I normally use Couchsrufing and I am really happy to share this experience knowing interesting people around the world. I am quite active in this community, organising many events. The Christmas party it is the best so far of the whole year :D
I hope one day to take a trip one way only with no return date, to find in my travelling, myself or a restless person that would like to share her life with me. And I am planning in to the future to live and travel in Japan.
If you ever meet me, ask me to cook something for you, because I am so good at cooking, and I love it.
And above all I am still quite eccentric, and a little mad ;D
