• P • I • T • O • T • I • presents the fascinating results of the meeting of new digital arts with ancient rock-art images, known as pitoti in the dialect of Valcamonica. The prehistoric pictures, with which the Alpine valley abounds, become like film stills in a vast cinema auditorium. Their peck-marks, pexils, hammered in the rock have been transformed in the pixels of digital imagery. A dazzling array of new technologies bring still images to life: advanced photography, animations, time-lapse, 3-D laser scanning, echoing sounds, panoramas, an all-surrounding "Ambient Cinema", even a video game and performance art.

• P • I • T • O • T • I •, an international joint venture between archaeology and digital arts, is a pioneering collaboration, opening unprecedented new insights for both disciplines.
