“U+29DC aka Documento Continuo” is an artist book and a research into that zeitgeist that has been also labeled as “post-internet.” Originally conceived as a MA thesis, “Documento Continuo” is a textual and visual collage strongly relying on appropriation as a possible way to draw your own path through the information overload. Written in Italian but mostly in “International Art English,” it focuses on issues like awareness, creolisation, the crisis of the European Union, dematerialisation and materiality, globalisation, performance, identity, FOMO, and the labour of being an artist in the age of “always on.”
