Black Box
by Silvio Lorusso, 2025

The box is black
And we don't like it
But we don't like
Even more that
Even if
The black box
Weren't black
But transparent
We wouldn't get
What's in the box
So we complain
About the black
In the black box
To not complain
About ourselves

Come si costruiscono degli archivi (davvero) utili Tutto il mio tempo mi sembra sprecato, come posso restituirgli del senso? Una conversazione con Silvio Lorusso.

tutto il mio tempo mi sembra sprecato, come posso restituirgli del senso?

per l'ultimo numero di VIVO Journal ho fatto una chiacchiera con @silviolorusso.bsky.social per capire come costruire degli archivi davvero utili

Silvio Lorusso on the state of design | Next Nature On October 25, Next Nature hosts Design Debate 2025, where sixteen speakers reflect on key issues in design. Writer and designer Silvio Lorusso is among them.

I gave a short interview to Mieke Gerritzen. Recently, I promised myself I wouldn’t talk about the kitsch of good intentions anymore, but then I open LinkedIn, go to design conferences, and realize it hasn't faded in the slightest. Let’s move on.

Is AI useful or not? To answer that, you shouldn't imagine a fully focused and energized version of yourself making use of it. Rather, picture yourself swamped, tired, and in a rush. That's how you'll get an honest answer.

If cuneiform spreadsheets are your jam, if you are a Nanni or Ea-Nasir simp, if you've ever forged a signature to skip school, then you can't miss Chris Lee's Designing History book. Here's my foreword, titled "The Discreet Charm of a Short-Term Rental Agreement": silviolorusso.com/publication/...
