Quarantine Feelings Project

I wanted everyone to feel as free as I did while I was writing. Complete artistic freedom!

I’m an Argentine film composer based in Milan, Italy, and in March 2020 I had planned to spend two weeks in Argentina to celebrate my birthday (because I am a birthday diva). Of course those two things didn’t happen as I had anticipated: I spent my bday alone and those two weeks became three months. Damn you fucking virus!
In that period all of the projects I was working on were suspended. Being a film composer means writing music for a specific scene of a film. I was so depressed and uninspired for the first month. I was struggling with my own demons, but somehow music always, always saves me.

Little by little I started writing again. As I had no requirements, nor directors/producers telling me what to do, I decided to try new things. It was about time I write down my feelings as I once did when I began my music career. So I started making the music I had always wanted to make but never had the opportunity to do so. I love composing music for films, but it is very satisfying to set myself free once in a while. 

When I managed to return to Milan I thought I should do something with the pieces, and I wondered ‘Why not ask some filmmakers to make a video for each one of the pieces?’ ‘Why not ask other artists to do something? Drawings? Poems?’ Yes, I am a bigger dreamer than John Lennon, lol.

I started telling some friends, and everyone loved the idea and brought their own ideas to the project. So we decided we were going to put all the art in a website.
