Le modifiche apportate si salvano sotto forma di commit. Ogni commit contiene le differenze tra i file modificati e la loro precedente versione che si vogliono salvare. Idealmente, ogni commit dovrebbe rispettare il principio di singola responsabilità: dovrebbe cioè riguardare una sola funzionalità o caratteristica del software. Ogni commit porta con sé un messaggio che descrive brevemente cosa è stato modificato, un timestamp non modificabile e un hash che consente di identificarlo univocamente. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/art/ Sat, 26 Dec 2020 00:00:00 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/art/ Il prodotto artistico Definire il concetto di arte in generale, non è semplice. Le persone parlano di arte per riferirsi genericamente a un processo intellettuale e materiale che produce un bene fruibile, materiale o meno; affinché tale bene venga definito arte, deve possedere alcune caratteristiche che variano in base al contesto culturale. Potrei quindi analizzare tali svariate caratteristiche per poi scoprire, però, che la mia stessa analisi sarebbe soggetta al mio contesto culturale e che pertanto non sarebbe comunque universalmente valida. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/the_last_resort/ Mon, 07 Dec 2020 11:05:35 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/the_last_resort/ Problem Deadlocks are bad creatures in the unix world. Sometimes, you willl need to kill your machine forcely, but what if you are using a remote machine? In the COVID-19 situation, it could be difficult to get a machine up again if you forcely shutdown it (e.g. shutdown -now). So, you need to reboot. The issue is that reboot kindly unmount filesystems and wait for processes to shutdown. Solution If you want to abruptly shutdown your system, simply does as following: https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/remote_editing/ Tue, 11 Feb 2020 11:50:35 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/remote_editing/ Workflow In this document, you can find an introduction to tools commonly used for remote editing and development. The generla workflow is the following: You create and edit code on your local machine An indipendent software mirrors your code to the host (syncthing in this document) You interface with the host through terminal, give commands and run code (tmux) Finally, you debug your code (debug section), and edit it your local machine This workflow allows you to: https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/liberazione/ Thu, 25 Apr 2019 12:34:41 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/liberazione/ Rispetto agli studiosi di materie sociali e umanistiche, pochi tra scienziati e ingegneri si interessano di temi civili o questioni sociali. La cultura in cui viviamo, infatti, non favorisce l’interazione tra la sfera socio-umanistica del sapere e quella tecnico-scientifica. Eppure, la Storia dell’Italia è ricca di spunti, fin dalle origini dei suoi principi etici: durante la guerra di Liberazione, il ruolo svolto da chi aveva conoscenze professionali tecniche fu decisivo per garantire la trasmissibilità delle informazioni e la cooperazione dei gruppi di liberazione e delle forze alleate. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/live_coding/ Wed, 20 Feb 2019 18:50:46 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/live_coding/ Versione italiana su techeconomy2030.it From 14th to 17th February, an important Algorave took place: 84 hours of non-stop music in the what probably is the largest music show completely produced and distributed online of ever. The 14th February 2019, in fact, was the 15th anniversary since the birth of TOPLAP, the international online community of musicians active in live coding, that are musicians who improvise music programming in real time. If you read this article and I can convince you that it was worthwhile to attend this Algorave, you can save this link to access the event: https://toplap. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/galileo/ Tue, 04 Dec 2018 13:50:46 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/galileo/ Il sole era già oltre le colline e le nuvole a sprazzi lasciavano che la luce della luna illuminasse la Terra. Il gelo di gennaio filtrava tra i vestiti di chi, incurante dell’umidità, usciva dopo giorni di pioggia. Simplicio entrò nel capanno dietro casa. Era giunto un messo da Torre del Gallo, non aveva lasciato detto nulla: solo un foglio, piegato in quattro, con le sue iniziali su un lato, GG. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/user_center/ Tue, 04 Dec 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/user_center/ Ipertrofia segnica La società del Novecento è stata caratterizzata da un sovraffollamento di segnali. Ovunque andiamo, troviamo segni, indicazioni, scritte, simboli. Viviamo in un horror vacui della comunicazione. La società degli anni duemila è andata oltre. Nel XX sec. il capitalismo cominciò a martellare le persone con informazioni le più disparate con l’obiettivo di: sostenere i consumi, garantire la comprensione delle leggi e indicare il comportamento a cui le persone dovevano attenersi. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/emozioni/ Tue, 02 Oct 2018 13:50:46 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/blog/emozioni/ Sono molti gli scrittori, i registi e i “fantasticatori” in genere che hanno immaginato macchine capaci di provare emozioni, eppure, nessuno è mai riuscito ad oggi a crearne uno. Ci riusciremo? Io credo di sì, e nei prossimi paragrafi proverò a dare un’idea di quanto bene possano simulare le emozioni i computer di oggi. Ogni tanto torna sui giornali la notizia di esperimenti riguardanti i cosiddetti “social robots” (qualcuno magari ricorderà i più appariscenti “sex robots“, in grado di simulare in tutto e per tutto una figura umana). https://00sapo.codeberg.page/about/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/about/ I am a post-doc researcher in the Laudare ERC project at the GSSI - Gran Sasso Science Institute. I am also a research collaborator at the University of Milan, in the LIM - Music Informatics Laboratory. My research interests lye in the realm of music technologies and encompass diverse techniques, approaches, and materials: symbolic music scores and audio recordings simple traditional ML recent and fashioned LLMs data scarcity reliability of data sources quantitative musicological analysis Every culture has music, yet each population has developed it differently. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/publications/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/publications/ Publications Here is the full list of my publication.

I just do music because I like. Nothing more. Here are a few pieces that I have written since when I was an improbable composer up to the Covid March-May 2020 lockdown, when I still was an improbable composer. The order is kind of a mess. Many others exist but only these could be considered complete by my sensibility at each respective time. https://00sapo.codeberg.page/home/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/home/ https://00sapo.codeberg.page/teaching/ Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000 https://00sapo.codeberg.page/teaching/ Here I will put all the material I use for teaching.
