Berio and Beyond is a seminar promoted by the Department of Cultural Heritage and Environment of the University of Milan, in collaboration with the Centro Studi Luciano Berio. This event marks the beginning of a wider project conceived by Angela Ida De Benedictis, that will extend in the next stages to a wider international level. Using some works by Luciano Berio as a starting point, categories like multi-mediality and cross-mediality will be analyzed in their theoretical implications and contextualized in their historical frame. This first meeting of the seminar will take place at Palazzo Feltrinelli (Gargnano, BS), thanks to the contribution of the University of Milan (prof. Nicola Scaldaferri, coordinator).
