Guided tours of the Basaglia Park in Gorizia, in the spaces that hosted the genesis of the Basaglia revolution and that still today are its memory.

The route is made up of stages, delimited by interactive installations, real life-size silhouettes, equipped with a QR code; with the help of a guide, who will accompany visitors along the route, it will be enough - either with one's own smartphone or through tablets provided - to frame the code to view the multimedia insights linked to it and referring to the stage/place visited. The proposed contributions, with a contemporary artistic slant, are realised starting from the analysis of the historical documents contained in the archives of the former psychiatric hospital of Gorizia; they are multimedia works developed through mixed production techniques, such as sound reconstructions, narrative montage sequences, docufilms, short films and 3D animations realised with the use of photogrammetric scanning. The basic itinerary of Itinerari basagliani will be enriched and expanded with the creation of new content, which will shift the focus of attention from life ‘of’ the asylum to life ‘in’ the asylum, finally turning its gaze to the territory in the present and future.
