About
Ilario Caliendo tries to analyze the quirks and phobias of con-temporary social life, with an ‘eye to the abuse of the network and the addiction on social media. His works investigate various ar-eas such as copyright, new art forms, trash, strange things and visual hallucinations. His approach recalls the poetic and activist hacker traditional at-titude using irony as a means of reflection.
Every five seconds, some-
one in the world die
because of starvation. Every
five seconds, a new image
with the hashtag “foodporn”
is published on Insta-
gram. It is as if the reckless
spending and malnutrition
proceeded at the same rate,
for an incredible and sad
coincidence.Who has not
come across or has created
a photo and then post it
on Instagram with hashtag
foodporn? In the jargon of
the internet, this keyword
has come to identify images
of overabundant and exces-
sive portions. they can be
identified with 5 seconds of
happiness for someone, but
not for all: in those same
five seconds a person dies
from lack of food. They die
every day of hunger and
more than 26,000 people
die in a year, more than 3
million children under age 5.
Hunger is on the first place
in the list of factors of great-
est risk for health in the
world and each year hunger
kills more people than AIDS,
malaria and tuberculosis
combined. All this assumes
an even more daunting
thought that only 20 cents
can provide vitamins and
foods for a child in need to
grow in a healthy way.
Just five seconds
Every five seconds, someone in the world die because of starvation. Every five seconds, a new image with the hashtag “foodporn” is published on Instagram.

Wonderful examples of street art, graffiti of extraordinary beauty
made onto poor support are appear-ing in every city: rubbish bins. The choice fell on the containers and not, more trivially, on the walls, since a wall remains someone’s property , while waste is something that we all pro-
duce, which comes from our homes and therefore represent us most inti-mately. Furthermore, bins are perish-able media compared to a solid wall, which, unless the builinding is de-molished, It is able to withstand for decades to weather and adversity . If we add that, because of the gradual
Junk with art
spread of the collection, soon all these containers will disappear permanent-ly, the desire to save these works so that they are usable for years to come definitely takes on a new meaning. Visitors can choose between viewing through Google Street View physically inaccessible works, or exploring their
territory and then going down the streets and admire them live. Junk With Art is a virtual art gallery open 24/7 and it is fully interactive through the use of Google Maps: clicking on the links that follow the work, the visitor has the opportunity to view directly the works herein documented. A real appreciation of what could undoubtedly be defined, albeit wrongly, junk art. Users will also have the opportunity to participate actively in the col-lection of these testimonies reporting new graffiti or sending firsthand photos of the works in their city or encountered in the course of their journeys.

A group of artists from the school of New Art Technologies Carrara,
outraged by the wasteland affair in Pitelli (SP), has decided to build a pro-vocative intervention to create aware-ness. Using an Open Source program for augmented reality (www.wikitude.com) we invite anyone who wants to
pay tribute to this beautiful land, vio-lated by the greed of man, to create a snapshot of Pitelli “planting “a sponta-neous symbolic flower in 3D through the application on their smartphone, with the hope that one day everything can become viral, and so real.
