He is the son of Salvatore Iaconesi and Oriana Persico:

Hacker, artist, musician, electronics engineer, skateboarder – Salvatore Iaconesi (aka xDxD.vs.xDxD) is in a permanent quest for liberated spaces. His research is focused on the recontextualisation of processes and practices to suggest tolerant and multicultural forms of society and autonomous, self-determined forms of expression. NeRVi (Neo Realismo Virtuale, Virtual NeoRealism) is a term that was coined together with Oriana Persico: a multiple, stratified, performative reality layered onto the physical one. Salvatore teaches Interaction Design at Rome’s University.

Oriana Persico (aka penelope.di.pixel) is a communication scientist focusing on the creation of empathic economies that allow for the establishment of participative, tolerant, creative ecosystems in which people actively and happily coexist. She started pursuing these objectives by getting involved in high-level institutional politics and cutting-edge grassroots projects in Italy and Brazil. But the encounter with Angel_F, an artificial intelligence, opened up for her the scenarios of critical art practices as a tool for the reinvention of reality.
