Cinema Solved
In time the cinema solubile website disappeared and fragments are dispersed. Fredd still has a box with splitering pieces of DVDs and Tapes. Yet digital is impermanent to a certain extent, and as anything fades back to nihil. I have found a trace of the last status of the website before being cybersquatted and forgotten on the wayback maschine. The latter has being attacched as well and is not always available. A second level of fading. All this is good and shall make you think to how everything of you and your existence is temporary. Amen.

The first published "recipe" of Cinema solubile dates 2005 and was published on the videovortex list of the network cultures site: https://networkcultures.org/videovortex/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2014/04/cinema_solubile-3.pdf. Federico has promiscuously interpreted his vision of "private and performative cinema" in various ways later, with the concept of happening for a movie camera: l'Uovo (2007), The White Poeple (2010), autodafe (2014) and more recently About Love (2023).
