Art, in all the wrong places

What would be like to read the weather report in a place with no weather? And where no one is listening anyway? A one-minute weather report from the Moon.  Part of my ongoing series of weird public announcements: PSA Going for broke   Created for Audio Playground , a fun audio assignment project run by Sarah Geis .

A public service announcement about gambling harm, aimed at migrant women. The presenter knows the script. She's less sure about the conclusion. Part of my ongoing series of weird public announcements. Created for Sonic Dash , a biannual 48-hour audio competition run by Silver Sound (New York): an original piece, under two minutes, made entirely from scratch in 48 hours in response to an emailed p...

A personal reflection on bodies, loss, and the things we do without thinking. Starting from an everyday habit, walking barefoot at home, the narration moves toward a family story that reframes everything that came before it.  Quiet, direct, and with somewhere unexpected to go. This piece was created for 60 Sec Radio , an international radio art competition and broadcast platform founded by Boris C...

Dies ist eine Geschichte darüber, als Erwachsene Fahrradfahren zu lernen — und über all die Gründe, warum es so lange gedauert hat. Über eine Kindheit in Sardinien, wo Fahrräder für Jungs waren. Über eine geborgene Gasse und meinen Freund Giuseppe. Von Niebuhrstrasse to Savignyplatz ist ein kurzes Audiostück für alle, die jemals etwas spät lernen mussten — und es alleine lernen mussten. Entstanden...

The salt is blinding. The provisions are half gone. There is no turning back. Lagoon picks up where Bitter Water ends: the vault is behind her, the liquid expanse is ahead, and the white formations on the horizon may or may not be what the Elders described. The surface is hostile: quicksand beneath the salt crust, acid water, beasts adapted to sulfureous ponds. She keeps moving. Above the white fo...

"Water used to have no taste. That's what the Elders say, and that's the hardest thing to believe. In a future Sardinia where every surface water is alkaline and corrosive, a young woman leaves the underground vault at dawn, before the UV peaks. She is looking for something. She has rope, smoked glass, and not much else." Bitter Water is a dystopian tale of hope and magic amidst the desolate lands...

Winner, HearSay International Audio Festival 2026 — Golden Prize Every time I'm in the car and a flock of sheep passes in front of me, it almost feels like this is my home. That line opens Spaciada sa Bregungia . It is in Sardinian, or rather, in the Sardinian I have. Which is not the same thing. See below for English subtitles. Spaciada sa Bregungia opens with sheep bells, that particular, unhurr...

Imaginary Sardinian Games presents: Flamingo Rising! An Audio RPG · Episode One: Level One A bit breathless, enthusiastic, slightly unhinged. The year is unclear. What is clear: Sardinia is salt now. The hills, the roads, the vineyards. All of it, crystallised under an indifferent sky. Overexploitation swallowed the land, and what remains is beautiful in the way that only dangerous things can be....

Sometimes magic finds you when you least expect it. That's exactly what happened when, among the many sounds from the Pitt Rivers Museum, I stumbled upon a recording of a night forest in the Central African Republic. I was immediately drawn to the sound because it felt magical. Without even reading the description to know the background of the sound, where it came from or how it came about, I sele...

Asylum is an immersive piece that takes listeners into a disorienting world of raw, urgent, whispered confessions layered on a cinematic soundscape worthy of your best psychological thriller. Listeners are left with a vague sense of uneasiness, and one piece of advice: do not look in the kitchen sink. The piece was created for Small Audio Art , the online space by Phoebe McIndoe where audio artist...

This piece reflects a journey from witnessing US events and feeling powerless to taking creative action. As an independent audio producer living in Sardinia (Italy), I could not make sense of my desperation while witnessing ICE violence in Minneapolis. I was horrified, so I decided to channel my energy into creating an incantation, using my skills to feel less powerless. This piece aims to be cath...

Didn’t You Ask for Kids? is a political satirical piece about the relationship between Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump , all based on the misunderstanding arising from the fact that the word kids means both children and young goats. The piece starts with a weird phone call in which Epstein is informed that the kids ordered are about to be delivered to his island, “just in time for the party with...

A woman's perfect new home begins to feel inhabited by presences she can't quite see. In the corner of her eye, they move. When she turns, they vanish. A psychological tale of perception, paranoia, and the fine line between reality and imagination. This piece is partly autobiographical, and partly an homage to Giorgio Manganelli 's masterpiece Centuria - 100 Romanzi Fiume   ( Centuria: One Hundred...

Stuart Fowkes, creator of Cities and Memory , published a call asking artists to re imagine a curated selection of field recordings from 36 countries around the world to develop brand new compositions on the theme of sustainability , equity and well-being in cities. The project launched at the C40 Summit in Buenos Aires in October 2022. I had the honour to be one of those artists. I started from t...

A woman writes a message during her daily tram commute to work. Seemingly insignificant details, like selling a table or a couch, hide a deeply personal story about love, and the fragility of the hope for new beginnings. In these small, fleeting moments between home and work, she is rewriting her story, while the ordinary tram ride becomes the extraordinary vessel navigating the delicate space bet...

What happens when the characters revolt against the writer? That's what happens in this meta-nightmare, where the protagonist literally calls out from the page to tell off the writer who keeps writing her dead. A piece that answers the question: how many settings and locations can you possibly pack within 3 minutes? The piece was originally created to address Audio Flux 06 's prompt "creative tens...

Variations in Memory Flat [ bilingual Italian and English - links to translated videos below ], is a quiet reflection on childhood memories, caught in a kitchen between big moments of joy and small, unexpected sadness.  This is the final outcome of my participation in THE ECCO , unveiled at the ((XMTR)) Festival . Slippery memory, the theme chosen for THE ECCO’s second cohort, was more than a conc...

Was passiert, wenn eine Uhr, die früher an der Wand hing, nicht mehr funktioniert und weggeworfen wird? Und warum fühlen wir uns gezwungen, eine Streichholzschachtel zu schütteln, selbst wenn wir sie nicht benutzen wollen? In diesem Werk finden Sie keine endgültige Antwort auf diese Fragen, aber ich lade dich trotzdem ein, zuzuhören – für eine ruhige Erkundung der beständigen Gewohnheiten unseres...

I take you on a journey of creativity, surprises and changes of direction, because this story evolves in ways I didn’t expect.  I started intending to record an interview with my friend Kathleen McCann , who painted the painting I wanted to talk about for my Small Audio Art project. A friend who lives 10 hours time difference away.  I end up sharing much more, beyond the messages I sent, the quest...

Ich erzähle einen kleinen, aber eindringlichen Moment, der mein eigenes Bedauern über meine Reaktion in einem bestimmten Moment unseres kollektiven Lebens widerspiegelt. Eine Reflexion darüber, wie leicht Angst unsere Wahrnehmung verzerren kann und uns vergessen lässt, was wirklich zählt: Mitgefühl und Hoffnung. Diese Arbeit hat den zweiten Preis beim Kurzhörspielwettbewerb der Hörspielwiese Kölln...

This is my very first commissioned piece in German, published on Deutschanldfunk Kultur's Doku Drops , a monthly audio magazine curated and moderated by Judith Geffert and Ingo Kottkamp , featuring short documentary pieces. In my piece, Da ist dieser Moment (There is this moment), I explore that fleeting, endless moment of waiting, the pause between dialling a phone number and hearing the other si...

A surreal exchange of words by the Aurora Bridge, near the railway. A dialogue between unlikely spies that makes a mockery of spy stories with irony and nonsense. The scene is set by the historic bridge in Seattle, known for its striking presence over Lake Union. This audio work reimagines the soundscape of the Hannover Hydroelectric Power Plant. It is part of the Cities and Memory project, blendi...

Created in 2 days, just as the rules of Sonic Dash require, without too much fuss, a bit rough and really rushed. The theme was 'too much information,' to be interpreted freely. My luck is having a lot of interesting and original friends scattered around the world who come to my aid without asking too many questions when I show up again with one of my strange requests. You might actually recognise...

A story of childhood wonder, loss, and the consequences of chasing what we don’t fully understand, a cautionary tale about the stories we inherit, the memories we cling to, and the dangers of tampering with time-real or imagined. Photo by Egor Litvinov on Unsplash

What happens when a clock that used to hang at the wall stops working, and is thrown away? And why do we feel compelled to shake a matchbox, even if we do not intend to use it? In this work you will not find a definitive answer to these questions, but I invite you to listen nonetheless, for a quiet exploration of the persistent habits of our memory, of what remains after people and objects disappe...
