Gomorra & Macbeth project

Write a setting for a specific scene (when, where) and describe the characters.

Scene I

We are in “the cavern”, a little pub bad lighted and dreary.
Three women, young but with horrible grey teeth and skinny faces, arrange their cocaine on the filthy counter, in order to create fine straight white stripes. A kind of zebra crossing of drug.
When Macbeth, one of the most important and cruel mafia bosses at the moment, enter in the pub, the three women understand immediately that he’s as upset as a big tiger in a small cage. So they offer him the drug that gives rise to a series of hallucinations…

Brainstorming on multimedia with Roberto Paci Dalò

Roberto Paci Dalò frequentemente realizza opere in più media approfondendo aspetti percettivi diversi dello stesso materiale in relazione al linguaggio e tecnologie utilizzati di volta in volta

That is how the flier advertized and presented Roberto to Salerno audience. Very difficult to present, Roberto as he himself admits, so no more words on who or what he is or has been—we may visit his website.
Presenting what he said is not a minor task. I’ll remind you just some points of his very generous speech. First of all paradoxically he warned against the use and misuse of the monster-word multimedia. Paradoxically because the so called ‘magesterial degree’, the two years of specialization of the DAVIMUS is : ‘Scienze dello spettacolo e della produzione multimediale’ and everybody is looking around to understand what is meant by that definition.
Multimedia- Roberto said, in his perfect Irish accent, is working in more than one sector, in more than one language. It is working and imagining and inventing new professions. It is asking oneself: ‘What shall I do when I become a child?—cosa farò da piccolo’

The creative drive should unite Davimus students and staff . The contemporary dramatist/ planner/ designer is the one who inventively uses new techniques, tactics, strategies in the creative process for the making of infrastructures (servizi, attrezzature), cultural spaces, advanced cultural districts. We need desire and technology, and these are very cheap and very easy to have access to and learn (Roberto is thinking at the project of Punta Corsara in Scampia or the project of the Fondazione Morra in the area of Avvocata in Naples-a project Roberto is working at now.)

We are less and less paper people-persone cartacee.
We need to work in group
