Francesco Fraioli

Francesco Fraioli was born in 1983 and grew up studying art in Venice and drawing comics.

His biggest passion is music. Francesco studied visual communication and multimedia at the Department of  Art and Design at the Iuav University of Venice, focusing his interests on courses of Interaction Design, held by Gillian Crampton Smith and Philip Tabor, where he realized the potential of the computer, especially the internet.

He graduated in April 2008 with a thesis project which involved the design and implementation of a social network to enable music collaboration over the web. In June of that year, Francesco presented his thesis in H-Farm: here begins the collaboration that gave birth to Thounds.
