Picnik Quotes For Friends

Oronzo Macondo Writers' Factory

What is the relationship between literature, language and new media? After more than 10 years by the explosion of the Web, new technologies have changed the way we write, to tell, to be read? The hopes of revival of literature and creative writing in the early 80s some intellectuals had placed in the Internet have been rejected or are translated into new horizons? And how did you react to this market? What are the artistic and economic perspectives of this world?

"Oronzo Macondo" wants to be and ask these questions and more in a weekend of meetings, debates, workshops, discussions on contemporary Italian literature. An artist residency to explore the new frontiers of culture, its prospects, its successes, its failures, illusions. Writers, bloggers, sociologists, scholars and critics will be guests of Salento in a sort of big brother of the communication.
Guests: Gianni Biondillo, David Borrelli, Girolamo De Michele, Carlo Formenti, Elizabeth Liguori, Massimo Maugeri, Giulio Mozzi, Paolo Nori, Anthony Pascale, Livio Romano, Michele Braithwaite, Giorgio Vasta Dario Voltolini.
The debate revolves around two macro-themes:

The creative aspect of communication and the time of the digital
• The change in the forms of writing
• The language of the new forms of writing
• Change in status of critical
• The return to militancy and the intellectual engagé


• The market evolution in the concept of copyright, copyright and intellectual property
• New technologies in relation to the market • The attitude of the publishing "traditional" about the phenomena of literature on the web and new business models
