Back in the US! In the city that never sleeps!
Well, it seems that blogging is definitely an outdated way to express oneself on the web nowadays. Additionally, I rarely write anything here anymore. Perhaps I feel that I have less and less interesting things to say (or to type). By the way, I am currently in New York City! 😊
These blog pages were a sort of trip diary over the years, in which I tried to keep notes on my experiences, just to remind myself of the wonder of exploring new places, rather than to let the world know where I am (or was). That is possibly the reason why I have become less “social” in the last few years, since I really do not like vanity portals like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and so forth.
Anyway, what better reason to write something again than a trip back to the US, a place where I left my heart a decade ago. Actually, thanks to Luisa, this trip was kind of an escape to New York City, so not really a "comeback," since I’ve never been here before, but an amazing opportunity to return to the States after visiting California.
During the first few hours here, our stay was severely affected by annoying rain, which prevented us from immediately visiting the iconic sites of this astounding city, but we will surely be there tomorrow.
Stay tuned...

Hai mai cercato un posto dove architettura, cultura geek e hardware vintage si incontrano davvero? Dal 2004 questo spazio è il laboratorio digitale di Simone Garagnani: qui si sperimentano idee, si collezionano storie nerd, si parla da tempo immemore di soluzioni BIM, rilievi digitali, computer graphics e retrocomputing. Ma non è nato tutto da solo: alle origini, fra i banchi universitari, c’erano anche Pasquale Squillace e Giuseppe Pernigotti. Da quei giorni, il blog è diventato una calamita per chi vuole sporcarsi le mani tra tecnologie d’epoca, cultura underground, digitalizzazione avanzata e creatività architettonica. Se ami la contaminazione tra passato, innovazione e un pizzico di ironia nerd, sei nel posto giusto.
Since 2004, this blog has been Simone Garagnani's digital playground - where geek culture, science, architecture, engineering ITs and vintage hardware come together. Here you can find hands-on experiments with retrocomputing, stories about underground nerd culture, and in-depth explorations of BIM, high-resolution digital surveying, and computer graphics for architecture, engineering, and construction. The blog was originally launched during my university years together with Pasquale Squillace and Giuseppe Pernigotti. Over time, it has grown into a hub for anyone interested in crossing wires between technology, creative design, and the hidden treasures of digital heritage. If you're passionate about mixing past innovations with new digital adventures, and enjoy a good dose of nerd irony, welcome, you'll feel right at home!
