"10" is the album celebrating 10 years of the Francesco Perissi XO project. 10 is the number of the tracks it contains: two unreleased tracks, one from 2012 (X01) and the last one composed in 2022 (VOLAREVIA), and 8 remixes from the second studio work (NDEr, 2019) and the last album (ROSSANA, 2020). The remixes are created by musicians who played a role in Perissi’s musical life (Justin K Broadrick, Eraldo Bernocchi, Naresh Ran) and represent the ambient-rock and attentive listening part of the collection; and by musicians who gravitate around the Blame rec label (Nigh/T\mare, OCD, Kassidy Human Waste, Vittorio di Mango, Michele Sfregola, In A Slaughter Brain) and make up the more EBM and clubbing part. These two aspects are intertwined in Francesco Perissi XO music.
The cover of "10" involved fans of the project who collected photographic evidence of commercial products, messages, children's games, alcoholic products, and original compositions from all over the world that contained the XO logo.
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,
It all depends what city you were in.
In the Republic of Tartosa, love flourished.
The eastern empire, left unnurished.
And in the Duchy of Henford, unrest skirmished.
~ Cycle 6 in the History of The Times, unknown historian and poet.
Tartosa
Through hard work and frequent trips to Henford, Tybalt Rathbone amassed enough wealth to expand his jewelry making business. The fledgling jeweler even managed to find time to meet a man, Chance Sparague and the two got engaged.
Unfortunately, unrest developed in Henford towards the end of the year. Tybalt took this time to expand his company's presence in Tartosa. Opening a storefront and constructing a rental home near his workshop.
Love was also flourishing across town, where Doge Miranda's son, Arthur, found enough free time between apprenticing for his father to woo another handsome lad, Victor Laws.
Unbeknownst to him, however, his sister Rossana had his eyes on the same boy. Victor would have to make a choice, but would he do it before or after the siblings discover his secret?
Komorebi
Meanwhile, rumors were abound in Komorebi that Ayumi Midori was abducted by the lights through the leaves. She returned the following day. Her concerned husband Ichiro requested a response from the twin Emperors regarding the incident. They declined his petition, and the quietly left their farm in the middle of the night.
The village was thrown into upheaval as the rumors spread that both the farmer and his wife were abducted by the lights through the leaves. Empress Kamira turned to meditation to find a response to the unrest.
Meanwhile, her son began training for his rule in peace keeping for the empire.
Henford
In late Cycle 6, the Bramblewood Bandits, led by Furghus Darkmoor, planned an attack on Castle Hopewell. They celebrated the whole before as a rallying cry.
The raid of Castle Hopewell lasted only six hours. Despite the use of explosives, the bandits never breached the first wall of the castle. It seems the partying the night before impaired the bandits' abilities. The explosives however, did set one of the exterior buildings on fire.
The Founding House sustained considerable damage. Luckily, despite being told to hide during the battle, young Prince Basileus, bravely rescued the many masterpieces located in the building from the flames. Some of the paintings, however, went missing during the battle, along with Marcus Wellborne, the adopted son of Lady Hopewell.
Will the cold hearted Tybalt Rathbone actually get married? Will the Miranda siblings find out Victor Laws's secret? Who will Victor choose? How will the Twin Emperors deal with the sudden lack of a farmer? Where did the old farmer and Marcus Wellborne disappear to?

Trieste, “Franz Von Suppé: la sua permanenza a Trieste, le sue composizioni dalla Dalmazia a Vienna”
Trieste, “Franz Von Suppé: la sua permanenza a Trieste, le sue composizioni dalla Dalmazia a Vienna”.
«Franz von Suppé: la sua permanenza a Trieste, le sue composizioni dalla Dalmazia a Vienna» è il titolo della conversazione di Rossana Poletti in calendario lunedì 16 gennaio alle ore 17.30, per il cartellone dei «Lunedì dello Schmidl», a cura di Stefano Bianchi, presso la Sala “Bobi Bazlen” al piano terra di Palazzo Gopcevich, nel segno della collaborazione tra il Civico Museo Teatrale “Carlo Schmidl” e la Sezione Friuli-Venezia Giulia dell’Associazione Italia-Austria. Considerato il padre dell’operetta viennese, Suppé era in verità un italiano, anzi un dalmata di lingua veneta. Francesco Ezechiele Ermenegildo Suppé - Demelli nacque a Spalato nel 1819, da madre austriaca e padre di lontane origini belghe. Visse la sua infanzia a Zara per poi trasferirsi a studiare a Padova. Sin da giovanissimo la sua grande passione fu la musica. La sua prima composizione fu eseguita nel 1832 in una chiesa francescana di Zara, la «Missa dalmatica». Ebbe poi una lunga e proficua carriera che lo vedrà a Vienna fondatore dell’operetta viennese. Il padre l’aveva costretto a studiare legge, il giovanissimo Suppé comunque non mancava di scappare appena possibile a Milano, al Teatro alla Scala per assistere alle opere dei grandi compositori italiani, da Rossini e Donizetti, di cui era lontano parente, all’emergente Verdi. Da giovane fu Dulcamara nell’«Elisir d’amore» di Donizetti, un ruolo da basso lui che era un tenore. Coetaneo di Offenbach, l’uomo che inventò in Francia l’operetta, seguì le sue orme e anzi lo sfidò nei titoli: alla «Bella Elena» contrappose ironicamente la «Bella Galatea». Sempre innamorato dell’Italia e ad essa legato, compose «Boccaccio», un omaggio al poeta, alla Toscana e alla lingua del nascente Paese. Eppure fu il padre dell’operetta viennese, anche se perfezionò il tedesco quando, morto il padre, la madre volle trasferire la famiglia a Vienna; qui si manteneva dando lezioni d’italiano. Sua la «Cavalleria leggera» che lasciava intravvedere una certa satira al sistema militare e per questo fu censurata. Suppé era un uomo tranquillo, dedito al buon cibo e al buon bere, a Trieste frequentava la famosa Osteria al Pappagallo, ritrovo di artisti cittadini. Morì a Vienna nel 1895, dopo aver dato vita a una trentina di operette e molte altre composizioni. Il contesto storico della Dalmazia e di Trieste, sotto il controllo dell’Impero Austro-ungarico, la nascente Italia, il confronto con i compositori suoi coetanei, aneddoti, la vita di Franz von Suppé, le sue musiche saranno al centro del racconto di Rossana Poletti, da vent’anni impegnata nell’Associazione Internazionale dell’Operetta di Trieste per far rivivere il genere musicale, che mandò Trieste in mondovisione. Organizzatrice di eventi, giornalista e critico teatrale Rossana Poletti sarà affiancata da Andrea Binetti che proporrà e commenterà brani musicali del celebre compositore dalmata.

Twenty-two women architects and designers you should know
To mark International Women's Day, we asked 22 of the world's most inspirational women architects and designers to nominate another woman who should be better known for their work.
Each of the prominent architects and designers was asked to select a woman who they think deserves greater recognition.
Several chose to shine a light on historic figures who did not receive full recognition in their lifetimes, with MVRDV co-founder Nathalie de Vries, Bangladeshi architect Marina Tabassum and Neri&Hu co-founder Rossana Hu nominating Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak, Minnette de Silva and Lin Huiyin respectively.
Others took the opportunity to draw attention to a contemporary woman or women-led team that should be better known, with Camille Walala, Tatiana Bilbao, Dorte Mandrup and Eva Franch i Gilabert nominating Unscene Architecture, Taller Comunal, Marie-José Van Hee and V. Mitch McEwen respectively.
Read on for the 22 architects and designers that deserve greater recognition:
Marie-José Van He
Nominated by Dorte Mandrup, Dorte Mandrup Arkitekter
"Marie-José Van Hee is a remarkably talented architect. Working primarily in her native country, Belgium, she is forging a significant mark on contemporary architecture with her attention to space, light and natural materials.
"Through her understated, authentic and poetic work, she continuously influences and inspires architects and designers alike. A timeless simplicity and weightlessness permeate throughout her designs, creating a stillness that seems almost tangible – blurring the line between art and architecture."
Iwona Buczkowska
Nominated by Farshid Moussavi, Farshid Moussavi Architecture
"Polish-born French architect Iwona Buczkowska's brilliant career is distinguished by an architectural approach opposed to any form of standardisation, thus placing the diversity of users and their agency at the core of her work. Her tireless commitment has led to the creation of works of incredible richness and inventiveness, whether for housing projects or public facilities.
"At a time when we need to question our built environment, and in particular, the housing in which we live, her work on diversification, user empowerment and inclusion seems particularly worthy of attention. As her work is under-studied, and because some of her built projects are currently under threat of demolition, I feel it is particularly important to bring to light what her work has to teach us."
Charlotte Perriand
Nominated by Es Devlin, Es Devlin Studio
"Last weekend I went to the South Downs to try to recreate this uplifting portrait of Charlotte Perriand (above) about which her daughter said: 'That photograph of a strong woman, triumphantly embracing nature, is the perfect image of my mother. She announces the contemporary woman, emancipated and free.
"Most of us have sat on the extraordinary and now iconic furniture she made in collaboration with Le Corbusier. Most of us are unaware of her fundamental role in its design. She was a genius in the art of collaboration, especially with powerful male artists. Her practice spanned an astounding range of genres, her work drew deeply on the forms she observed in nature throughout her rich life."
Kenyatta Mclean
Nominated by Harriet Harriss, dean of the Pratt Institute School of Architecture
"I'd like to nominate Kenyatta Mclean, co-founder and co-managing director of Blackspace: the black, interdisciplinary, spatial collective comprised of architects, artists, designers and planners who have asserted both the necessity and the agency of 'Black Urbanism'.
"From my perspective, her ability to co-create spatial narratives that are centred in and driven by racial justice is essential and urgent work applicable both to the US where the practice is situated, and cities worldwide, where structural racism and other forms of discrimination are embedded in the materiality and form of the architectures that surround us.
"Moreover, spatial collectives – from Matrix to Assemble – offer a much-needed antidote to the vagaries of starchitecture and the hierarchies typically found in traditional design practices. Kenyatta Mclean's visionary work reminds us all of the need to use this period of Covid-imposed introspection to re-examine how much more inclusive, equitable and impactful our industry needs to become.
"Blackspace also offers a road map and a benchmark for graduates and young practitioners who are committed to leading the changes we need to make."
Unscene Architecture
Nominated by Camille Walala, Studio Walala
"I would like to nominate Unscene Architecture. A pair of fantastic women that I met the year before the pandemic started. The architecture design duo – founders Manijeh Verghese and Madeleine Kessler – were the co-creators of the British Pavilion for the postponed 2020 Venice Architecture Biennale. Definitely, ones to watch."
Anupama Kundhoo
Nominated by Seetal Solanki
"A rare kind within the world of architecture. Anupama Kundhoo brings people a voice, materials a voice and building a voice that is beyond her own – an egoless practice. Traits that shouldn't be so rare actually, but she's paving the way for so many and hopefully many more to come."
Ndebele women
Nominated by Sumayya Vally, Counterspace
"In this tribe, we evoke women near and far – friends, ancestors and mythical figures – women who write, organise, imagine and build worlds into being. I chose to draw attention to the unrecognised architect genius of the Ndebele women – women who craft ritual objects and build and adorn their own homes. The calling of their names invokes the calling of millions of errant, unrecognised, other architects the world over – past, present and future.
"They are Maria Ntobela Mahlangu, Dinah Mahlangu, Johanna Mkwebani, Martina Maghlangu, Anna Msiza, Sara Mthimunye, Sara and Lisbeth, Pikinini and Sara Skosana, Anna Mahlangu, Letty Ngoma, Sarah Mguni, Martha Mtsweni Ndala, Rossinah and Esther Mahlangu."
Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak
Nominated by Nathalie de Vries, MVRDV
"When working on our Concordia Design project in Wroclaw, Poland, I met Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak, the grande dame of modern Polish architecture. Born in 1920, she brought architecture to the next level in the second half of the 20th century. In 1974, she was the first woman to receive the prestigious Honorary Award from the Association of Polish Architects.
"In a time when female Polish architects were mostly known as 'the wife of…' Jadwiga had a highly successful career, she had a big part in rebuilding postwar Wroclaw, and was also known for her schools and housing. I am really impressed by her work and her amazing personality. When I met her, she was very energetic and still very much involved in architecture. With her passing in 2018, Poland lost a great architect."
Minnette de Silva
Nominated by Marina Tabassum
"The first name that comes to mind is Minnette de Silva (pictured above with Pablo Picasso), an architect ahead of her time. Less celebrated than her contemporary male counterparts. You may have read this article below, but I'm sharing the link again. This tells her story better than I can write."
Marina Willer
Nominated by Margaret Calvert
"I would propose Marina Willer, although she may not fit as she's already well known. Apart from being an exceptional graphic designer and filmmaker, Marina was the first woman to be appointed a Pentagram partner. Brazilian by birth, it was at the Royal College of Art, where I was teaching at the time, that I first became aware of her amazing drive, commitment and talent as a student."
Duygu and Begum Ozturk
Nominated by Nelly Ben Hayoun, Nelly Ben Hayoun Studios
"I nominate Duygu and Begum Ozturk, the two sisters behind the fashion brand Harem London. Born in Istanbul, they started their all-organic fashion brand recently in Dalston, London; merging traditional techniques from Istanbul and London, bringing together their heritage and future.
"I love that they started a business together as sisters and that they are persevering in developing their beautiful collection despite the pandemic and Brexit and all the complexity this created for them. They need to be applauded for their great work."
Lin Huiyin
Nominated by Rossana Hu, Neri&Hu
"Lin Huiyin was the first female architect in modern China. Lin and her partner Liang Sicheng were the pioneers in architectural heritage restoration and documentation in China during the 1930s.
"Although it was the two of them who brought China's ancient architectural treasures to light, Lin's recognition in documenting and restoring China's historic buildings has often been overshadowed by her partner, who is recognised as the 'father of modern Chinese architecture'. In addition to her architectural practice, Lin is also widely acclaimed for her literary creation."
Mary Corse
Nominated by Azusa Murakami, Studio Swine
"I would like to pick Mary Corse. She has been gaining much-deserved recognition in recent years with a solo show at the Whitney but has been arguably one of the most innovative artists to come out of the light and space movement.
"We love her material research, her ability to take industrial elements like the glass microbeads used on motorway reflective road markings and using it to make really delicate and sublime optical paintings is really inspiring."
Yemi Awosile
Nominated by Morag Myerscough
"I have loved Yemi Awosile's work for many years. She is a wonderful person and I have worked with her in the past on the Bernie Grant Centre where she made some textiles for the centre."
Franziska Porges Hosken
Nominated by Jane Hall, Assemble
"Austrian-born, and America-based, designer Franziska Porges Hosken was pioneering in multiple respects. In 1944 she became one of the first women to receive her master's of architecture degree from Harvard's Graduate School of Design and in 1947, together with her husband James Hosken, she founded their successful eponymous furniture business Hosken.
"Despite giving up her design practice to take care of her first child in the late 1950s, Hosken continued to create as a photographer and journalist, publishing numerous books on urbanism including The Language of Cities.
"She was also an activist for women's rights, founding the Women's International Network and publishing reports on Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), a term she is credited with coining, which affected the agenda of major health organisations including the WHO. Continuing to distribute a feminist newsletter well into her eighties, Hosken's legacy demonstrates an extraordinary commitment, undertaken over the course of a lifetime, to connect design with social activism."
Winka Dubbeldam
Nominated by Sonali Rastogi, Morphogenesis
"Winka Dubbeldam is an architect whose contribution I would like to acknowledge. She is the founder of the WBE firm Archi-Tectonics. She had visited our studio about 15 years back whilst working on the redevelopment of the New Delhi railway station. I also enjoyed attending one of her juries in UPenn about ten years ago, and ever since, I have been following her.
"Being in academia myself, what resonates with me is her significant influence on the emerging generation through her involvement in architectural education and design juries worldwide. Her designs are evocative and transformative, and she creates architecture that matters.
"I read somewhere that she maintains a fluid balance between energy and calm, precision and informality, experiment and comfort in her designs, studio, and life, a mantra I have been following all my life."
Eva Albarran
Nominated by Sofia Von Ellrichshausen, Pezo von Ellrichshausen
"I would like to propose Eva Albarran: a Spanish entrepreneur, living both in Paris and Madrid, who operates in the expanded, and diffuse, field of contemporary art and architecture.
"She is a solid character who has managed to solve complex productions for significant artists (such as Christian Boltaski, Felice Varini or Francis Alys). Together with her husband, they direct a refined gallery and the Solo houses program, a project that might well be read as a radical revision of the current human condition in relation to nature."
Dana Al Amiri
Nominated by Pallavi Dean, Roar
"Dana Al Amiri, the co-founder of Watab Studio, is a rising star in the male-dominated Saudi construction industry. I love her minimal pared design philosophy – practicing in a region that is infamous for opulent and OTT statements. She truly represents the next generation of regional architects that are defining Saudi's design identity."
Taller Comunal
Nominated by Tatiana Bilbao
"I would like to make Taller Comunal, which is led by Mariana Ordóñez Grajales and Jesica Amescua Carrera, my recommendation. Because for them, architecture is not a profession, it is a service to facilitate architecture to be produced by the people who inhabit it. That should be the future of our profession."
Anne Tyng
Nominated by Huang Wenjing, Open Architecture
"Anne Tyng immediately came to mind as a female architect that deserves much more recognition. Born in China in 1920 to missionary parents; a classmate of Eileen Pei and IM Pei — these two little details seem to have brought her closer to me, my being Chinese and had worked in the office that IM founded.
"Tyng was one of the first women to study architecture at Harvard Graduate School of Design; the only woman to take the architectural license test in 1949.
"It is unfortunate and unfair that people often seem to be more interested in her anecdotal affair with the iconic master Louis Kahn than her great influence on his early works — the rigour of geometry and order was very much Anne Tyng's interest and contribution. She went on to be an independent architect, theorist and educator. A true pioneering woman in the field."
V. Mitch McEwen
Nominated by Eva Franch i Gilabert
"Mitch is an architect, activist, dancer, rapper, entrepreneur, someone who has taken the lead on many occasions to make space for new ideas.
"We crossed paths several times throughout the last ten years; In 2011, during the Occupy Wall Street Movement, I organised an exhibition and a series of events at Storefront for Art and Architecture hosted by brilliant people; Mitch's workshop "How to Occupy a House in America" was one of them.
"In 2014, Mitch was one of the architects writing letters to the Mayor in the first edition in New York of the global project "Letters to the Mayor" asking Mayor Bill de Blasio: "How can New York City Housing Authority really become the Pride of Our City?" and provided some answers and ideas that still stand.
"Mitch is currently an assistant professor at Princeton University – where I am currently teaching a seminar. Her work is now on display at MoMA in New York as part of Reconstructions: Architecture and Blackness in America."
Mónica Bertolino
Nominated by Sandra Barclay, Barclay & Crousse
"Mónica Bertolino is an architect from Córdoba, Argentina, where she lives and works as part of the Studio Bertolino-Barrado founded in 1981.
"Together with Carlos Barrado they have an excellent production of projects in different scales. In their work you understand immediately the search for good qualities in habitability, their sensibility when they intervene in the landscape, and their concern for research about materiality linked to the local traditions of construction.
"I admire and think she deserves recognition especially in her academic role where she transmits her passion and enthusiasm for architecture in an unconditional way. She is devoted to this mission!
"She participates in workshops and as invited professor in different universities in the world as well as a regular professor in the National University of Cordoba and in the Catholic University of Cordoba."

He huffs a little, cheeks turning pink-ish. “That’s none of your business, whether we do or not. I know she’s a celebrity, but we deserve some privacy here.”
Rooms, Tbilisi : Objects as Figures – as Guests of a Space
Being the Tbilisi-based Interior and Product Design studio with the two founders behind it – Keti Toloraia and Nata Janberidze, whose aesthetic focus was determined by their Soviet childhood, in a synthesis of European and Asian cultures inhabiting the country, Rooms is perceived an on-growing practice at both local and international Design stages.
“By always seeking something new and unfamiliar, we are rarely fully aware of what is around us at any given moment. That’s why we decided to capture the simple forms of our daily life and freeze them in time - to “monumentalize” them. This collection is all about celebrating the Life on Earth.”
– Rooms
The curiosity and the awareness of permanence of the things that were created centuries ago, with a concentration on mixing simple organic and geometric forms, yet juxtaposed with composite materials, makes their archetypal collection Life On Earth an assembly of one-of-a-kind sculptural objects.
Keti and Nata have known each other since their interior design faculty days at the Tbilisi Academy of Arts. Having started working together straight after the graduation in 2003, in another four years, they decided to found their own design studio. By holding onto “think globally but act locally,” in a short time this approach helped ROOMS gain recognition far beyond the borders of their homeland in the Caucasus.
Wild Minimalism is the collection where a mix of archaic and modern, wild and minimal intersect. The nod from the Soviet era’s architectural forms, traditional folklore and local ethnic furniture have led them to get back to their roots and express the feeling of being grounded using simple natural materials, which transformed into a series of gently handcrafted yet primitively shaped wooden pieces out of timber that is more than 100-year-old.
Everything that they design has a blend of modern and archaic, and ever with a notable twist. Bravely playing with past and present, their throne-like pieces in addition to contrasting brass against dark stained wood acquire both heavenly and human-made portrayal of inner and outer space.
Rooms' collaborations include local artisans, among which is the Georgian stone company Kamara; as well as being exposed at the collectible design galleries like Mint Gallery (London), Spazio Rossana Orlandi (Milan) and The Future Perfect (New York); but are also not limited to the companies with shared ideology of respecting traditional crafts.
“A rug – in itself is a magical object, but for us it is also a symbol of cultural heritage and a chance to explore both – history and magic.”
– Rooms
In the matter of their 10th Anniversary celebrated during Milan Design Week 2018, they showcased pieces from the collaboration with cc-tapis, the Italian company that produces contemporary hand-knotted rugs created by expert Tibetan artisans in Nepal. It turned into a capsule collection of rugs, entitled The Night of a Hunter, with reinterpreted authentic Georgian motifs, as another ageless craft deeply rooted in Georgian culture.
Nata and Keti do not only bring their souls into every piece they create but leave a nonvanishing impression of multi-faceted depth of both the intricate and refined – and all in a humble clear approach as the solid foundation at large.
“Simplicity and the clear paths of life bring us to the solid state of mind.”
