Ph.D thesis
Preliminari a una semiotica dell’udibile
My Ph.D thesis in Semiotics (University of Bologna, 2004, in Italian) tries to define the audible domain from a semiotic point of view and aims at merging contributions from different auditory-related studies into the theoretical framework of semiotics.
Books
Audio e multimedia

Semiotiche al cinema
( Esercizi di simulazione, Gian Paolo Caprettini and Andrea Valle, eds., 2006, Milano, Mondadori, It.). An introduction and a reconsideration of the thought of the most relevant semioticians. Each author is discussed starting from a film, as if his theoretical work was prompted by that textual object.
Trappola sonora
( Sull’udibile in The Conversation di Francis Ford Coppola, Quaderni di Semiotiche, 1, Trento, UNI Service 2006, It.). Coppola’s The Conversation allows to investigate the contribute of auditory perception in the definition of textual strategies, which are remarkably oriented by the audible domain.
On-line Books and publications
SuperCollider Italian Manual
Some basic notes on SuperCollider (and on computer audio/music) for the Italian reader.
Available in three formats
- 2 pages x sheet: intended for screen reading. It’s interactive: SC source files are included in the pdf (click the icon after each example to open them with Acrobat Reader).
Here - 2 pages x sheet: intended for printing back/front (4 pages for sheet, much nicer typography than 1, not interactive), so that you cut in the middle to A5 and bind (i.e. you can create a book).
Here - 1 page x sheet: like 2, intended for printing to A5 (useless) or scale up to A4 (maybe useful).
