Why "Aethia"
"Aethia" is the scientific name of a seagull that lives at low latitudes.
The seagull has always been for us an effective metaphor for what we try to do. At the technological level, in fact, those who use high performance computing systems choose in a way to acquire wings and take flight. But also at the level of business idea the seagull is a symbol of the values dear to us, that this brief extract from "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" (1973) we hope to communicate.
Jonathan Livingston Seagull is no ordinary seagull. It is a seagull that discovers the beauty of flying, which seeks perfection in flight because it believes that flying has innate beauty. It does not want to follow the others, it rejects living in flocks, it does not want to fly to find food; it has got other ideals, an ideal of freedom, of spaces and blue sky, of heat and light, wind breeze and foaming sea. It wants to struggle and stand out, to get the things it believes in, also with the risk of not being understood by others as it. Therefore, it becomes the symbol that has the courage to follow its inner law and not being influenced by prejudices of the others. It is a metaphor that reflects the human condition often built in tough schemes and roles which cannot leave room for fantasy, aspirations and dreams.
