These are Francesca Proia's paths, a young choreographer and dancer in Ravenna that has made the yoga a philosophy of life, making its mark in the theatrical solos danced in detail, where the subtle body imprisons and ponders a unique balance of energy and empathy contemporary dance....

Aesthetics And Computation: The Origins Of Generative Art

Pasquale Napolitano
After some years of a qualified and creative activity, it is now known to most people that the images produced with a generative technique are more adjustable, as they are the result of the information flow being seized in a split second; then the information is adjusted through the interface, that is some kind of design process that gives life to real metadata rather than to images, videos or sounds.
