A castaway finds himself washed ashore a beach at the foot of a towering city. His curiosity draws him into the urban expanse he finds before him. Whilst in the city he tries to get in touch with the society. However the characters he meets are strange, superficial and snippy, and after a series of unfortunate events he finds himself a castaway once more.

Niccolò Bonfadini :: Frost-covered trees
 |
| It looks like an alien world, but these incredible pictures show trees buried under a foot of snow. The extraordinary landscape is located close to the Arctic Circle, where temperatures can drop as low as -40C. In the dramatic sub-zero temperatures, the snow and frost become so thick it disguises the entire landscape. http://www.niccolobonfadini.com/ |

Ugo Borga :: Living on the Death River
 |
Springing from the banks of the Buriganga River, Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, is one of the biggest and most densely populated cities in the world, Dhaka is also among the fastest growing. Today, the river is terribly toxic; the Bangladesh government estimates that about 21,000 cubic meters of untreated industrial sewage is released into its waters every day. According to Human Rights Watch, residents in neighboring slums regularly suffer from fevers, skin diseases, respiratory problems, and diarrhea. The dire contrast between what the river once was — a literally life-giving force — and what it has become caught the attention of Italian-born photojournalist Ugo Borga. As part of a still-ongoing project started in September 2013, Living on the Death River, Borga photographed and interviewed workers and people living near the Buriganga, chronicling the human and environmental catastrophe unfolding there.
In his statement about Living on the Death River, Borga quotes Jamil Sharif, activist and founder of Buriganga River Keeper: “Buriganga gave life to Dhaka,” Sharif says, “and Dhaka killed it.”

Diario Notturno 239
La logica del senso comune non m'interessa, perché un ragionamento non deve assumere una condotta conveniente. Né mi appartiene la logica del desiderio, dato che pensare non è seguire il cammino più piacevole. Il primo mi condurrebbe allo stadio più debole del pensiero: la prudenza. Il secondo a quello più periferico: la superficialità.
