Welcome! This is the entry point for the “little participatory lithology exercise” launched on March 21, 2020 from Tatti (Southern Tuscany) by pibinko.org with the Jug Band Colline Metallifere (Metalliferous Hills Jug Band), networked with other folks around Italy and abroad. To make your way into the project, there are various avenues. You may choose from:
- The March 21st presentation, with two introductory tunes
- A virtual visit to our “gallery“
- The instructions for various roles considered for the project: collectors, classifiers, entertainers, and sponsors
- A map of the project participants.
- At the end of this page, a list of all the articles we published in the News section of this site. Reload the page to see them in a different order.
- From the Jug Band Colline Metallifere site, the Lithobag blog series, with songs about rocks, stones, and minerals, plus some tunes we write about this project, performed also by friends (to date we have Francesco Ceri dei Matti delle Giuncaie, and Liliana Cafiero).
- Mauro the T-Rex, with his diary and an awesome performance on his song about the project.
