A thousand times we made mental trips by listening to a song or a music track, leaving us carry and associating with images, scenes, which were best suited at the moment:the
opposite feeling i had with the collages of Fabio Monizio, that to watch them now i feel a lot of music, i see the scan and the nuances of sounds and different rhythms, superimposed, fused together.
Fabio Monizio is a Neapolitan artist from the versatile personality, transplanted in Rome and graduated in Law, that in life is also a dj.

In parallel with the collages lately i musical experiments with a project called Les Pietons , life view from a pedestrian.

My future projects are all projected toward new technologies, such as the
