Novità assoluta: La ribellione di Emmanuel - Una storia vera - su Amazon: Anima elettronica: Vomitare in questa pochezzaBrand new: Emmanuel's Rebellion - A True Story - on Amazon: Electronic Soul: Throwing Up In This MiseryThis podcast proposes, in episodes, a novel set in the 90s, precisely between 1994 and 1997, taken from the diary of a teenager who we will conventionally call Emmanuel.The novel tells the difficult phases of his growth, marked by his frantic search for the "sense" of Beauty, of which he himself was the bearer and which ends up being his condemnation.The English version is entirely recited by AI.In the current web landscape, dominated by AI, it is difficult to stand out, but we are trying, starting with an anomalous and creative use of artificial intelligence.The only thing we expect from you is that you appreciate the effort.WARNING:According to the new podcasting rules, the statistics will no longer count the listens, but only and exclusively the DOWNLOADS.We therefore ask you, please, to ALWAYS DOWNLOAD each episode, perhaps to throw it away immediately afterwards (we know it takes up space)!Thanks for your cooperation!
