Snake Machine is a divergent art and music factory that wants to gather artists and talent with a relationship to Silversnake Michelle's art.
The audience is part of the factory, embracing its philosophy and becoming a supporter of an artistic project.
A different vision of music than that of the mainstream (shitstem).
Music expressed and perceived through all the senses.
It is inside everything.
It conveys emotions.
The foundations of our ego.
Memories, images of the past tied to suggestions.
That can be revived through the senses.
In the end, I want to make music touchable, smellable, tastable.
Why do I imagine the machine?

Music meets food and goes through it.
For I started with food.
Same nature and same function.
Ephemeral nourishment.
After all, there are music notes and flavour notes.
My great pleasure, my great obsession.
Mirror of emotions.
Food as a game to exorcise sorrow and obsession.
Any food has music inside.
Blending music and food becomes a game to me, a need and a healing from eating disorders.
Facing head-on the bulimia e viverlo senza vergogna.
A way to make peace with my body.
Maybe so, but maybe not.
After all, without my demons I would be nothing...
Music through food.

How was the idea born? More than just an idea, it is a vision of things.
Always when I listen or when I sing, I perceive sensations going beyond the auditory one.
There are colours, smells, tactile sensations and taste.
Synaesthesia. And I would like my audience to savour it.
Inoltre volevo sottolineare la vera natura della musica: la caducità, è effimera come il cibo..
I choose to start with something sweet.
Anyone who knows me well will be aware that I love savoury foods.
So why amaretti biscuits and chocolate?
Food is not only body nourishment, but is also sometimes a pleasure, a shelter.
Artistically, I chose sweet food to enhance the bitter-sweet contrast between my music and food.
A kind of Tao that perfectly fits black and white, making them complementary.
What we eat, and its symbolism, becomes a part of us once we digest it.
It is a non-verbal language, taking us back to primary relationships.
What we eat. How we eat.
Food has a rewarding function. Beyond our sense of hunger,
We unconsciously choose what to eat, by indulging our emotional need, going beyond the food itself, but pursuing what it represents to us.
If we choose sweets, there is a need for care, fulfilment and affective inclusion.
It is the chemistry of love.
It's a return to the infant stage. And I want to start from there.
The bond between chocolate and music is deep.
Even expressions and language of connoisseurs to describe chocolate originates from the world of music, harmony of flavours, melody, notes of taste, symphony of scents.
Chocolate and Amaretti combined with the audio CD "IN THE ETERNAL ECHO", which cannot be found in digital stores.
The music is going back to physical media.
It's a fully aware choice, reflecting an artistic vision.
I have done the same reasoning on products combined with music.
I selected products from small "MADE IN ITALY" companies that care for craftsmanship.
The Amaretti, for example, are made without apricot seeds, but only with pure almonds.
I want to rediscover traditions linked to typical local products.
To the traditions shaping our history.
Hence a valuable and niche merchandising.
I went for these products to "taste" memories and dreams.
Nowadays, the world is deprived of the senses. Everything is so digital and unnatural.
With art, I have the ambition to come back to primordial sensoriality. To play with the senses.
To come back to a truthful, non-artificial reality.
