to say i’m a blogger it’s like to say i’m a reader
Hello,
long time no speak. I’ve been busy by working hard as a producer with Scenario, as a musician with Vanilla Sky and as a human being with the rest of my life. These are actually hard times to me but I swore to myself I’d face 2010 with a sunnier spirit and a pure fighter soul so here I am again to talk a little bit about myself and my thoughts. I’ve been visiting some blogs recently and I must say I’m kinda addicted right now: I love to read about people, to know what their thoughts are when they feel lonely, defenseless, naked.
I am going to think blogging is the new literature: to have the chance to slip into everybody else’s life is a fascinating thought and the digital world has truly changed our way of approaching modern life. A friend of mine from Scenario has been talking to me about the way new generations have changed, are changing, are different. I am going to sound really old if I say my first mobile phone was given at 17, and only because my mom who was a really anxious person wanted to be able to check my conditions at any time. At that time I thought a cellular phone was useless, expensive and privacy harming.
In fact I’m pretty known among my friends for never picking up the phone or answering to messages in general. There is also a group named “those who want Vinx to answer the phone” on Facebook with like 80 members. Anyway I must say I also remember having my high school teachers talking about the danger of mobile communication and all the big changing we were about to face at the time 20th century was ending .
I’m searching for stability, safety, balance: I am thinking in a completely different way compared to my younger self. Another very good friend of mine told me something similar just two days ago: question is am I getting old? I am thinking about family more and more often, about making up one, having a baby of my own, sharing life with somebody who wants to give me love in exchange of love. This digital world is of no help and my conditions are getting worse but at least I can focus on different things: working, writing, composing, recording.
Yesterday night I’ve been out with Tony, Jacopo and some other good friends to have a drink: I felt like out of place, like if I don’t belong here, like if I never really belonged to this city. The new Vanilla Sky record is about to be released and my life is really so much different from the one at the time Changes our previous record was out. I’m just older, or maybe grown up.
Soon I’ll be writing more interesting stuff. Love.

Some people say that you learn as long as you live. So by learning new things, you just might have learned a new way to look at the world and yourself. During that process, you might as well have created some needs, there is deferent from the needs you had before.
