Logbook – First dive of our submarine in the Mediterranean Sea.
I look out through the first porthole… and someone waves at us with tiny paws, like we’re the late bus.

My son Andrea has already given it a title: “The Catfish.”
Curious, sweet, and just a little… unpredictable, it peers inside like it’s deciding whether to adopt us. Around us: bubbles, little fish, and that sudden sense of wonder you get when the sea decides to tell you a story.

In the background, a hammerhead stares, baffled: “Sorry… but who invited the new tenant?” And yet this is only the first surprise of the trip. The next window on the seabed… promises an even more unexpected encounter.

AI used exclusively for preliminary studies; final work is handcrafted.
When I use AI, I treat it like a sketching lab. For example, here I gave a precise brief—subject, lighting, materials, even a lens effect—and then corrected the output with specific indications (the cat’s gaze and subjects in the background). AI doesn’t decide: it speeds up the study phase. The ethics lie in two things: not opaquely copying other people’s material and honestly declaring that it is a design tool, while the final work (and the artistic choices) remain mine.
