   Divertissement: if you believe your math is elegant and/or you are cool, then watch this

   Personal: a few of my (non-math) favourite things:

• the Italian cultural magazines Lo Straniero (closed with the end of 2016), gli asini, Internazionale; Minima & Moralia (on line); The Paris Review; different art forms (see, e.g., Artribune)
• the graphic novels by Will Eisner, Art Spiegelman, David B., Igort, Adrian Tomine, Gipi, Guy Delisle, Daniel Clowes, Michel Rabagliati, Sammy Harkham, Rutu Modan, Gabriella Giandelli (see, for some of them, Coconino Press and Drawn and Quarterly);
• the movies by Mike Leigh, Patrice Chereaux, Aki Kaurismäki, Matteo Garrone, Céline Sciamma, Roberto Minervini, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Alice Rohrwacher, …
• novels, essays, poetry (too long list of favourite authors)

  I am presently reading "La bastarda della Carolina", by Dorothy Allison (minimum fax, 2018)
