Emmanuel - The broken diary (Podcast Novel)

Emmanuel - The broken diary (Podcast Novel)

This podcast proposes, in episodes, a novel set in the 90s, precisely between 1994 and 1997, taken from the diary of a teenager who we will conventionally call Emmanuel. The novel tells the difficult phases of his growth, marked by his frantic search for the "sense" of Beauty, of which he himself was the bearer and which ends up being his condemnation. The Italian version, up to the end of the novel, is interpreted by two good actors-voice actors, Paolo Malgioglio and Elisa Gandolfi; the English version is entirely performed by AI. Even the ideal continuation of the novel, which continues beyond 1997, is performed by AI, both in the Italian and English versions, of which we propose only a few episodes. In the current web landscape, dominated by AI, it is difficult to stand out, but we are trying, starting with an anomalous and creative use of artificial intelligence. The only thing we expect from you is that you appreciate the effort. Having said that, we would have liked to replace the podcast episodes with editions renewed in graphics and/or soundtrack, and, as far as the English edition is concerned, made with next-generation AI. Unfortunately, the absence of a "search box" for creators on Rss.com makes this operation impossible for us: as paradoxical as it may seem, we are unable to trace the various episodes out of a total of about 400 (including songs and covers). We have therefore decided to republish the old episodes by adding them to the previous ones: there is no other way to renew the podcast. Stay tuned! WARNING: According to the new podcasting rules, the statistics will no longer count the listens, but only and exclusively the DOWNLOADS. We therefore ask you, please, to ALWAYS DOWNLOAD each episode, perhaps to throw it away immediately afterwards (we know it takes up space)! We'll alway try to provide the direct download link. Thanks for your cooperation! ... Questo podcast propone, a puntate, un romanzo ambientato negli anni '90, precisamente tra il 1994 e il 1997, tratto dal diario di un adolescente che chiameremo per convenzione Emmanuel. Il romanzo racconta le difficili fasi della sua crescita, contrassegnate dalla sua affannosa ricerca del "senso" del Bello, di cui lui stesso era portatore e che finisce per essere la sua condanna. La versione italiana, fino alla fine del romanzo, è interpretata da due bravi attori-doppiatori, Paolo Malgioglio e Elisa Gandolfi; quella inglese è interamente recitata da AI. Anche l'ideale continuazione del romanzo, che prosegue oltre il 1997, è recitata da AI, sia nella versione italiana sia in quella inglese, di cui proponiamo solo alcune puntate. Purtroppo l'assenza di un "box di ricerca" per i creatori su Rss.com ci rende impossibile questa operazione: per paradossale che possa sembrare, non riusciamo a rintracciare i vari episodi su un totale di circa 400 (comprese le canzoni e le cover). Abbiamo perciò deciso di ripubblicare i vecchi episodi aggiungendoli in coda ai precedenti: non è possibile procedere diversamente per rinnovare il podcast. Rimanete in ascolto! ATTENZIONE: in base alle nuove regole del podcasting, nelle statistiche non verranno più conteggiati gli ascolti, ma solo ed esclusivamente i DOWNLOAD. Vi chiediamo perciò, per favore, di FARE SEMPRE IL DOWNLOAD di ogni episodio, magari per buttarlo via subito dopo (sappiamo che occupa spazio)! Cercheremo sempre di fornire il link per il download diretto. Grazie per la collaborazione!

My Story With Gianni

We have gathered in a single file all the episodes in which the photographer Gianni appears, which constitute a separate story within Emmanuel's story.

The episodes have already been proposed individually, except for two, which appear here for the first time.

The story has a bitter but temporary conclusion: it is unlikely that Gianni will disappear from the scene lik...

The Rabbit Hole

The second part of the story begins here.

Emmanuel, released from the relationship with Antonia, is literally projected into another universe, where he finds it hard to orient himself and risks committing many serious missteps.

In retrospect, while writing the diary, he wonders how he got into Michelle's trap.

All interpreters are AI.
