Fortunately there are Italians like Antonio Scarponi around. They represent the genius and the creativity of some of us against the barbarian disgrace that Italy is living in this period.

His latest project is called ‘Italia in fumo’ (Italy burned and transformed in smoke). The goal of the project is to raise the awareness around the italian constitution, a document that is largely unknown by most of the italians 🙁 .

Antonio proposes to use some common form of public display to spread the knowledge of the constitution articles. With the same graphic language of the european directive concerning the cigaret consumption, the project web site proposes a series of widgets that is possible to download and use to spread the constitution around. On the picture below, for instance, there is the model for building a cigaret box cover. I find it really neat and smart! Thanks Antonio!
