História
Ignazio Fabio Mazzola (b. 1980) lives and works in Bari, Italy, where he studied architecture. His artistic practice examines the body and its existential condition through biographical and collective forms. In his video works he has dealt with projects of architects such as Alessandro Anselmi, Carlo Aymonino, Franco Purini & Laura Thermes, Ludovico Quaroni and Aldo Rossi. A selection of his films is part of the catalog of the Collectif Jeune Cinéma in Paris, of which he is also a member.

A flock of memories activated by various musical exercises, to strike the past to the heart, to build something utopian: the future, a sonic architecture. Music as a tool, transcriptions of YouTube tutorials as poetry, percussion exercises as descriptions of reality.

Director
Maurizio Sacripanti’s prefab school, designed in 1969 for the town of Molfetta, turns into a deafening film. An animated interpretation of a section of the building: holes, panels and layers of the project transform into a mechanical rhythm, but the sound of a bell alters the logic of the system.
Director
Between 1968 and 1969, Maurizio Sacripanti designed a pavilion for the Expo '70 in Osaka, the intention was to represent Italy in a world fair through an architecture that was physically in motion, as a symbol of a country that was moving forward. This undone project, which exists only on paper, stands as a testimony of a unique, historical period in Rome's architecture scene.

In 1971, painter Giuseppe Capogrossi, architect Maurizio Sacripanti and sculptor Alfio Castelli won a contest for an ‘artistic fence’ that would enclose the Faculty of Law building in Bari (Italy). Completed in 1972, this piece of public art is now forgotten and degraded. S MMM is a revisitation of the shapes of that fence, a homage to that passionate confrontation of practices that led to that project.
