The latest edition of Milanese staple Alla Carta takes inspiration from Blob, the longest-running program on Italian TV created by Angelo Guglielmi, Enrico Ghezzi, and Marco Giusti. The show would take apart and reassemble clips and images from Italian television to present a chaotic yet intentional reflection of society.
This issue's theme is directly borrowed from Blob, and the first article is a detailed essay about the show's boundary-blurring process. As the team puts it: ‘This issue of Alla Carta walks the thin line between chaos and calm, visual disorder and the desire to send a careful and timely message.’
