Businessman and graphic designer interested in any sort of communication, Francesco leads Studio Matitanera® and is FULL Magazine's Managing Editor. As for Doc's Flux capacitor in Back to the Future, Francesco had the vision of Tictalo! in the summer of 2008. Since that moment he has been developing the project strongly believing in the power of immediacy and in the ephemeral nature of on line conversations.

DIEGO SÍMINI
Translations Coordinator
Diego Símini was born in Cairo, has grown up in Uruguay and has been living in Italy since a long time. His hope was to be able to earn his living doing something pleasant for himself and for the others, and it was so. First of all he planned to be a musician, a professional journalist, a writer and other scarcely rewarding activities. Later he began teaching Spanish Literature in the Università del Salento (Lecce) in 1996 and he hasn’t finished yet. He translated some works of contemporary authors, in particular Laura Restrepo’s L'oscura sposa (Frassinelli Edition) and Delirio (Feltrinelli Edition). He is on other things, such as Full Magazine and Tictalo! network, which fill him with enthusiasm.

Viviana is an active and reliable member of Studio Matitanera®’s team. Apart from being Assistant Editors-inChief of FULL Magazine, she is involved in the external relations of the Studio and of Tictalo! too.
