This volume presents fifty images “messed” involuntarily during the printing tests of my book In Domo Foscari, memories and images of a university (2018), published to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Ca ‘Foscari university. In order to reduce paper waste, the test prints of In Domo Foscari were carried out, during work in progress, not on new machine sheets but on those already printed and, for some reason, discarded. Thus some singular and suggestive superimposed images were produced by chance. Some of these images are collected in Scraps .

25.Two prisoners, the inmate and the redstart, Postcart, Rome, 2020.
On 8 September 1943, Captain Mario Zipoli, like many other Italian soldiers, he was detained by the Nazis only to be imprisoned in various concentration camps after his refusal both to join the Republican Fascist Party and to collaborate with the Reich and the SS. This volume presents, on the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Liberation, an anthology of the diary that he wrote during the 586 days of his internment. On this occasion, his imprisonment is juxtaposed with that accidentally suffered by a black redstart trapped inside a small space at the very same time when the captain’s diary was presented in a Tuscan library. The book is accompanied by thirty images of the black redstart.
