I love things, which are short and light: eventualities, instant theory, Zwischenakte, espresso talks, in-between-moments, dimunitivi italiani, and finger exercises. In writing, I’m especially fond of picture haikus: a combination of an image and some words, but also of vignettes, taking minutes, and flash stories. Lately, I have been unfolding my writing practice with the leporello and by writing not on but with paper.
