    Those who travel very slowly may yet make far greater progress, provided they keep always to the straight road, than those who, while they run, forsake it.
    Rene Descartes, Discourse on the Method

    Lo so che parlo perche' parlo ma che non persuadero' nessuno; e questa e' disonesta' - ma la rettorica mi costringe a forza a far cio' - o in altre parole "e' pur necessario che se uno ha addentato una perfida sorba la risputi".
    C. Michelstaedter, La Persuasione e la Rettorica

    Under a darkening sky / The night is falling down on me / And I'm thinking that I should / Head on home / Been gone too long / Leave my roaming
    M. Knopfler and Emmylou Harris, Beachcombing

    Io non mi sento italiano

    29th June 2009
    Tags: , ,


    Il mai sufficientemente rimpianto Gaber… uno degli ultimi veri liberi pensatori italiani!!!

    Io G. G. sono nato e vivo a Milano.
    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono.

    Mi scusi Presidente
    non è per colpa mia
    ma questa nostra Patria
    non so che cosa sia.
    Può darsi che mi sbagli
    che sia una bella idea
    ma temo che diventi
    una brutta poesia.
    Mi scusi Presidente
    non sento un gran bisogno
    dell’inno nazionale
    di cui un po’ mi vergogno.
    In quanto ai calciatori
    non voglio giudicare
    i nostri non lo sanno
    o hanno più pudore.

    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono.

    Mi scusi Presidente
    se arrivo all’impudenza
    di dire che non sento
    alcuna appartenenza.
    E tranne Garibaldi
    e altri eroi gloriosi
    non vedo alcun motivo
    per essere orgogliosi.
    Mi scusi Presidente
    ma ho in mente il fanatismo
    delle camicie nere
    al tempo del fascismo.
    Da cui un bel giorno nacque
    questa democrazia
    che a farle i complimenti
    ci vuole fantasia.

    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono.

    Questo bel Paese
    pieno di poesia
    ha tante pretese
    ma nel nostro mondo occidentale
    è la periferia.

    Mi scusi Presidente
    ma questo nostro Stato
    che voi rappresentate
    mi sembra un po’ sfasciato.
    E’ anche troppo chiaro
    agli occhi della gente
    che tutto è calcolato
    e non funziona niente.
    Sarà che gli italiani
    per lunga tradizione
    son troppo appassionati
    di ogni discussione.
    Persino in parlamento
    c’è un’aria incandescente
    si scannano su tutto
    e poi non cambia niente.

    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono.

    Mi scusi Presidente
    dovete convenire
    che i limiti che abbiamo
    ce li dobbiamo dire.
    Ma a parte il disfattismo
    noi siamo quel che siamo
    e abbiamo anche un passato
    che non dimentichiamo.
    Mi scusi Presidente
    ma forse noi italiani
    per gli altri siamo solo
    spaghetti e mandolini.
    Allora qui mi incazzo
    son fiero e me ne vanto
    gli sbatto sulla faccia
    cos’è il Rinascimento.

    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono.

    Questo bel Paese
    forse è poco saggio
    ha le idee confuse
    ma se fossi nato in altri luoghi
    poteva andarmi peggio.

    Mi scusi Presidente
    ormai ne ho dette tante
    c’è un’altra osservazione
    che credo sia importante.
    Rispetto agli stranieri
    noi ci crediamo meno
    ma forse abbiam capito
    che il mondo è un teatrino.
    Mi scusi Presidente
    lo so che non gioite
    se il grido “Italia, Italia”
    c’è solo alle partite.
    Ma un po’ per non morire
    o forse un po’ per celia
    abbiam fatto l’Europa
    facciamo anche l’Italia.

    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo lo sono.

    Io non mi sento italiano
    ma per fortuna o purtroppo
    per fortuna o purtroppo
    per fortuna
    per fortuna lo sono.

    Io non mi sento italiano, Giorgio Gaber

    Friends on Explore

    25th June 2009

    I’ll soon add some of my friends most interesting photos and artworks in this new Catergory.

    They are the ones that appear listed in Explore which is the Flickr’s gallery about the most interesting stuff uploaded on their portal.

    Hope you’ll like them and maybe you’ll even find some inspiration as much as I received during the last years by all of them. :)

    Explore description by Flickr
    Flickr labs have been hard at work creating a way to show you some of the most awesome content on Flickr.

    We like to call it interestingness.

    There are lots of elements that make something ‘interesting’ (or not) on Flickr. Where the clickthroughs are coming from; who comments on it and when; who marks it as a favorite; its tags and many more things which are constantly changing. Interestingness changes over time, as more and more fantastic content and stories are added to Flickr.

    We’ve added some pages (and changed some existing ones) to help you explore Flickr’s most interesting content. Before you start though, you might want to take your phone off the hook, send your boss to an executive training session and block off some time on your schedule, because we don’t think you’re going to be walking away from your screen any time soon. Beautiful, amazing, moving, striking – explore and discover some of Flickr’s Finest.

    It’s pointless if we live or die

    23rd June 2009

    It’s pointless if we live or die; it’s life!

    What you see is what you get
    And what you get may well be worth seeing
    But just be careful when you walk
    On those old broken stones
    Because they are my feelings

    If I smile
    Do not be swayed
    I simply serve the public image

    The Public Image, Morrissey

    Render Flam3 1.3.8.5 – Apophysis animation Script for Flam3

    18th June 2009
    Tags: , , , , , ,


    A new release is available here: RenderFlam3


    I’ve been back to the script during the last days and found that before adding more new features I’ll better use the 1.3.8.x releases to add some more maintenance stuff.
    There was some more coding left outside during the last releases due to the lack of spare time.

    1. User defined JPEG quality and 16bit PNG support let users to fully customize the generated files both in terms of Format and Quality.
    2. Flames checking is now selectable: this feature is very important cos the preliminary Flames checking could require various minutes on big Flames files. Users can use this feature to skip it. It’s should be used on Flames you’ve already checked for Flam3 compatibility.
    3. Progress display for preliminary Flames checking and Better progress display for Flames saving let users in having a better and more complete feedback of the operations done by the working script.
    4. BAT file header reports Flam3 and RenderFlam3 used version and BAT file header reports Generation parameters give users some information about the environment used to generate the Flame-sequence and the BAT file generated parameters.
    5. BAT file is better commented give users more explanatory comments into the generated BAT file; it’d be more easy to optimize the whole rendering process now.

    The interesting thing about this script is that, taking a look to the Site’s statistics, I’ve found there’s still some quite good interest in it; it’s actually often browsed and downloaded but I rarely have back some comments or usage tracks: I’m quite mature to know that the general Internet rule is “grab what you can“.

    Well, I’ve spent some time tracing the users old requests and working to better code them, as far as possible,  instead of adding a new bunch of stuff.
    Most of the things are now implemented and some more will be added during the next maintenance releases.

    Download here (right click / Save As): RenderFlam3.zip

    Low-quality preview of the Global Camera Rotation feature

    RenderFlam3 main purpose is rendering a sequence of Flames using Flam3 to create animations.
    It’s an Apophysis script which cycles through the flames in the Title Window,
    sets their time field,
    sets their advanced animation tags,
    saves them all off to a single flame file,
    and then creates a bat file (to the same output path).
    Executing the bat file will launch flam3-animate and render the animation’s frames; Flam3 will interpolate all the flames.
    RenderFlam3 can create Morph, Sheep or Edge animations.

    Flam3 supported Variations:
    linear, sinusoidal, spherical, swirl, horseshoe, polar, handkerchief, heart, disc, spiral, hyperbolic, diamond, ex, julia, bent, waves, fisheye, popcorn, exponential, power, cosine, rings, fan, blob, pdj, fan2, rings2, eyefish, bubble, cylinder, perspective, noise, julian, juliascope, blur, gaussian_blur, radial_blur, pie, ngon, curl, rectangles, arch, tangent, square, rays, blade, secant2, twintrian, cross, disc2, super_shape, flower, conic, parabola, split and move.

    Preliminary Docs are included in the new archive.
    Read the Docs or below for new features.

    Changelog
    v 1.3.8.5 – 18 June 2009
    User defined JPEG quality added
    16bit PNG support added

    Progress display for preliminary Flames checking
    Better progress display for Flames saving
