   EN — For this new episode of Dispatch, I invited Giulia Crispiani, one of the artists on show in my RETROFUTURE section, to curate a special episode.

Here, she reads “Monsone perpetuo”, which could be called a prelude to “Il Futuro è finito ieri”, the work which you can find in my physical space. In this episode: Giulia Crispiani reads “Monsone Perpetuo”, 2018 (https://www.museomacro.it/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Dispatch-No-13-Giulia-Crispiani-reads-Monsone-Perpetuo.pdf) (https://www.museomacro.it/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Dispatch-No-13-Giulia-Crispiani-reads-Monsone-Perpetuo.pdf)) Sound by Federico Antonini — IT — Per questo nuovo episodio di Dispatch ho invitato Giulia Crispiani, una delle artiste in mostra nella mia sezione RETROFUTURO, a curare una puntata speciale traendo ispirazione dalla città di Roma, dai suoi suoni e da una pioggia immaginaria che figura come una sorta di MacGuffin nella sua scrittura.
