Italian Storytelling about Volcanoes

The biggest volcano on earth is Tamu, winning against its rival Mauna Loa, in Hawaii.
In fact, so far we have celebrated the latter, thanks to 5,180 square kilometers of surface.
However, in the depths of the Pacific Ocean, east of Japan, there was Tamu, a true giant, with 310 thousand square kilometers.
That’s crazy, don’t you agree?
It is like to dedicate your whole attention to a little fire, while at your back there was the sun…
Anyway, this only the beginning of this story...

Italian storytelling about internet

Once upon a time a dot.
Yes, I said one dot.
No matter how big it might be.
What matters is that it was alone.

Italian storytelling video: what is a virus today

What are viruses today?

Viruses are social networks, no one may feel excluded, or banned. They poison us with mediocrity by literally forcing us to make copies of ourselves, all the same, all differently idiotic, to not make us discover others, to the detriment of the user who has nothing, used by everyone except the now former owner of his identity.
They are the hackers of our own life and with our caricatures loaded on the shoulders we serve the great friend of anyone by offering a huge "like" as a gift to the virtual world that is getting bigger and smaller at the same time...

Stories about poverty: when the poor see us (Storie sulla povertà: quando i poveri ci vedono)
