Cloister of St. Francis
Brief HistoricalThe current Town Hall in Freedom Square, adjacent to the church of St. Francesco D’Assisi, was the Franciscan home 1304-1809. Followed in the suppression of the religious order, in 1813 it was bought by the municipality and intended to house offices of public utility. Upon entering the building, after passing the entrance hall leads to the Cloister of St. Francesco, built in 1739 by Enginnering Pietro Mangarelli. Today it hosts culture conferences, events and religious celebrations.

Video: FantasySypnosis: Fantasy is inspired by the idea of venturing into a dream. A colorful dream, bringing the building’s facade to make it a street playing with three dimensional spaces and finally doing a tribute to the digital age ... building futuristic themed environments mystique.
Video: SimbiosisSypnosis: The idea is to make your imagination fly through different eras and architectural forms. I used several different concepts and styles of design. A modern design with a touch more traditional digital and always looking for the impact of playing with 3D visualizations and deep spaces that the building allowed me. And a small dedication to one of the architects who have always admired and I have been inspired to create the aquarium based colored glass pieces. Finishing with time past line of the original structure.CLICK HERE TO SEE VIDEO

Video: Super ImposeSypnosis: Audio and videomapping set, created by k137 (aka Alessio Spirli) In this set of videomapping, I focused mainly on the front architecture, imagining a horizontal section that divides the facade into two levels: the colonnade with arcades and the remaining upper floor. I mainly used the white and the frequency of light (flickering), lines and planes horizontal-vertical, grids 3d, cube and sphere, all strictly white, they stand by the absence of light that absorbs all the architecture. These simple shapes are animated and put into continuous variation from the audio, creating a deconstruction of architecture integrating or fragmenting, the area of the windows are interpreted by me as the origin of everything.

Video: TurbomapSypnosis: This video mapping is based on 3d geometry made in blender and patching in vvvv. All elements and shaders are audio-reactive mixed/improvised live and a little bit in post. Audio is produced by my friend Auer so i have all rights to use this track. I hope you will enjoy this music visualisation and the rainy vibe :)

Video: BaroxismSypnosis: This is the realm of baroque spectacle as theatre of the world: once invited beyond the proscenium, and beyond the frame, the frame perceptually disintegrates embroiling the viewer in a series of baroque folds that present the possibility of a limitless scope of vision.The outside becomes inside and the inside out.The baroque phenomenon of border-crossing is best expressed by Deleuze: If the Baroque establishes a total art or a unity of the arts, it does so fi rst of all in extension,Each art tending to be prolonged and even to be prolonged into the next art, which exceeds the one before. We have remarked that the Baroque often con nes painting to retables, but it does so because the painting exceedsits frame and is realized in polychrome marble sculpture; and sculpture goes beyond itself by being achieved in architecture; and in turn, architecture discovers a frame in a fade, but the frame itself becomes detached from the inside, and establishes relations with the surroundings.We witness the prodigious development of a continuity in the arts, in breadth or in extension: an interlocking of frames of which each is exceeded by a matter that moves through.
