PLEASE NOTE: this website is still in the process of being revisioned and reconstructed.
Thank you for your patience.



I am a composer, sound designer, lecturer, and researcher, currently pursuing a PhD at the “G.P. da Palestrina” Conservatory of Music in Cagliari, focusing on musical intelligence, multimedia, augmented musical instruments, and AI in the performing arts.

I graduated in Electronic Music with the highest honours from the Cagliari Conservatory, where my research explored sound synthesis techniques in audio chips from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s. I currently teach Sound Design at the University of Cagliari and in its postgraduate programmes in film studies.

My work spans contemporary music, sound design, film, and research. I have released several albums, composed soundtracks for films and documentaries, and my music has surpassed 32 million streams across major platforms. I have toured throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan, and my works have been presented at Italian Cultural Institutes in Tokyo, Budapest, and Bratislava, as well as broadcast internationally by BBC, CNN, NHK, RAI, and others.

My collaborations include Dolce & Gabbana, Sky Arte, Einaudi Editore, and Lisa Gerrard of Dead Can Dance. In 2019, my composition 1983 was released by Deutsche Grammophon as part of the XII project.

My current research explores the intersection of music, technology, and interactive media, with a particular interest in augmented musical instruments, artificial intelligence, and the creative possibilities of historical sound technologies. I am also writing a book on Programmable Sound Generators and their role in the evolution of video game audio and retro music computing.
