In the search for Vincenzo Marseille gather two categories that the Western tradition has often opposed to one another: arte and technique, referred il digital constitutes the current embodiment. In his work we recognize the inseparable link between art and technique which implies the need, from one side of a matter always present to constitute the artistic form, the other of a technology that provides a new platform aesthetic and expressive. As McLuhan stated, "Artists gather the message of cultural and technological challenge decades before they begin to transform society" (McLuhan 1964). In the work of Vincenzo Marseille you can then find a dual function: social scenarios that anticipate new technologies materialize and mediate between the old and new scenarios.
