an interview with makkox (in english):

sanday 13 october 2019
Makkox tells himself: "I would like to make a film about right-wing cartoonists"


The designer of Propaganda Live today at 18 (ITALIAN TIME) is a guest of the Settimo Torinese Innovation Festival: "I have a nostalgic approach to life but I love technology: I want every new product"




TORINO. Diego Bianchi in transmission calls him "genius", and indeed many of Makkox's intuitions, in the century Marco Dambrosio, smell of genius. His pen and his acumen are among the strengths of Propaganda Live (and before of Gazebo), broadcast every Friday evening on La7 and his designs enrich the production of various newspapers, online and on paper. Today at 6 pm he will be a guest of the Settimo Torinese Festival of Innovation and Science. An opportunity to talk about oneself in an unusual context such as the Archimedes Mulimediale Library.


Makkox, the theme of the 2019 edition is time. What is your relationship with the everyday and with the passing of time?

"I am one of those who look backwards. The beautiful things are only those that belong to the past, I have a nostalgic approach to life. At the same time, however, I love technology, when something new comes out I have to have it: from video games to 3D glasses. In everyday life, even if I look messy, I am very precise, attentive to schedules and deliveries. Do you know how many more talented than me but with poor respect for punctuality now make the madonnari? "

No problem with advancing age?

«But no, I don't look in the mirror with a feeling of death and depression. Although I am impressed by the scene of the tube by Nanni Moretti in April, more than anything else because I love the transformation of the data into images. It is the same mechanism that made me show with a design that if all men stood side by side, they would occupy 10 billion square meters, the equivalent of the surface of Basilicata. Do you understand how much space there is on Earth? How do you talk about an invasion? "

In a recent interview, he said he was angry. To see you today, you don't seem able to hate.

«I choose not to cultivate resentment because it takes your time, but there have been times when things were not going well. You just want to bite. At home it was not good and I wanted to take it from myself. I had no education, so I started with manual work. And there is a jungle. So when I see the angry people a little I understand them. Even if I don't justify them ».

When did you realize that you could live with a pencil in his hand?

"Very late, I was over forty years old. The first time they paid me for a comic on the web,  a hundred euros, I couldn't believe it. Then from there it was all very fast and I started working hard ».

Was it the turning point to know Diego Bianchi?

"Surely. Although not the first. Luca Bizzarri called me to be the author of Scherzi a parte on Canale 5. For me it was the first time and I didn't like it at all.

wild island








to visit this place you have to pay a small fee to join a group ... and you are not warned before ... you discover it only when you are there.




Second life is also made to work, so I accept paid places but no surprises ... also because if I got there after having invited friends I would have felt obliged to pay for everyone.

if the general use is to leave the sims open and free entry, advertised in the SL directory, the paid places must warn that there is a small cost to be faced, according to logic and above all in my opinion. so not to argue and not to make bad publicity I don't put indications to reach the place, beautiful that I felt in right to photograph as compensation for the disappointment and the lost time






I think you can really play the piano here - LINK
