Each year a group of young artists invited from all over the world, is dedicated, through photography, design, music,video, writing, interactive and visual communication, to uncover the future, says their website. I’ve always been intrigued by Fabrica, the Benetton research centre on communication and very curious to see its premises, an old villa revamped by Tadao Ando.

So i’m on my way to Treviso to spy on what’s really going on there (if the train is miraculously on time, i’ll be enjoying a 5 hour-journey in a wagon with inefficient air conditionning). Looking forward to finally get to meet Ann.

Of course, i had to pretend i’d be giving a talk as well. Details here.
