Biography
Active online since 1995, he built his first website at age six, laying the foundation for a multidisciplinary path across design, storytelling and technology. With over 20 years of experience, his work spans contemporary art, branding and digital culture. He is known for shaping visual identities and sonic concepts that merge strategic vision with aesthetic innovation.
His very first job was at 10 corso como in Milan, where he worked as a web designer from 2009. Between 2010 and 2012 he worked in Milan with Amnesia Milano and House of Wronga, filming artists including Nina Kraviz, Tale of Us and Skrillex. In 2012 he co-directed Laura Pausini’s video “Mi tengo”. His music videos also include Il Fieno’s “Del conseguimento della maggiore età”, premiered by Rolling Stone Italia.
A crucial figure in his journey is his brother Gianluigi Fazio, a producer and sound engineer who introduced him to music production early on. Since 2014, his career has evolved within the ventures of entrepreneur Etan Genini, who consistently involved him in forward-thinking projects, including the development of Valuart, where he has been Creative Director since March 2021.
His debut single No One Should Ever Die came out in 2025 on Artifucked, his own label. The EP Nothing But Simulation, inspired by Nick Bostrom’s simulation hypothesis, premiered on NTS Radio in Foodman’s show the same year. Today his practice blends creative direction, music production and generative systems across formats and disciplines.
