As part of the BNL Media Art Festival, artist Marco Mendeni is working with students at the Liceo scientifico G. Marconi in Milan.

The project with year three students is based on an analysis of the relationship of students with the web, social media and videogames. How are these new forms of media transforming the concept of identity and relations?

Working on this issue, the students gathered images that describe their relationship with technology and projected them, thanks to a special paint, onto their faces. Then, they were filmed to produce the final video that will be projected at the MAXXICorner D del MAXXI during the BNL Media Art Festival.
