Book I Media Cities  Innovative e Environment for Research on Cities and the Media

Download or read book I Media Cities Innovative e Environment for Research on Cities and the Media written by Teresa-M. Sala and published by Edicions Universitat Barcelona. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I-Media-Cities. Innovative e-Environment for Research on Cities and the Media presents the results of an innovative project undertaken by the film archives of Athens, Barcelona, Bologna, Brussels, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Frankfurt, Turin and Vienna, in conjunction with several leading research centres and technological innovators. Together they have developed a digital platform for viewing a wide range of images and motion pictures. More than 1,000 films dating from 1890 to 1989 have been incorporated in the platform, expressly selected to give the project coherence and meaning. Each city is represented both singularly and generally, revealing similarities and differences between them. The producers, actors, directors, places, people, and historical, social and political events are listed to facilitate analysis in areas such as sociology, urban anthropology, town planning, and architectural history, among others. The objective is to propose a new way of disseminating film collections, bringing them to a wider public, and stimulating research into cities in the fields of the humanities.

Book excerpt: Numero doppio, 160 pagine, cm21x29,7, brossura, illustrato a colori, anno 2015 Questo numero speciale di Kermes, nell’ambito delle celebrazioni per il 350° anniversario della morte di Nicolas Poussin (1594-1665), esce in concomitanza con la mostra ‘Poussin et Dieu’ che il Musée du Louvre presenta nella primavera del 2015. Omaggio al ‘pittore-filosofo’, il volume si pone quale strumento scientifico di riferimento che riporta lo stato dell’arte a livello internazionale negli studi tecnici poussiniani e accompagna la mostra come adeguato complemento al catalogo per la comprensione scientifica delle tematiche. La pubblicazione è stata l’occasione per attivare un dibattito internazionale – quasi un convegno ideale con sede in Kermes – a cui hanno aderito con entusiasmo oltre venti autori, proponendo significativi ed estesi studi in una dimostrazione esemplare d’interazione fra ricerche storico artistiche e tecnico-scientifiche. … It is with great enthusiasm that Kermes supported this initiative hosting the studies, as though these were part of a conference, ‘ideal’ in that it never took place physically, but very much real in terms of the international plurality of its contributions, presented here thanks to lively exchange of information across frontiers … This publication is the fruit of a perfect and exemplary collaboration between curators, conservators and scientists brought together from all countries… The publication here before us provides a number of answers – let us be brave and use the word ‘definitive’ – to questions which have long been an issue of debate … Comme l’affirme ici même Sheila McTighe, toute vision plus large de la pratique de Poussin doit dorénavant prendre en compte et intégrer ces nouvelles données techniques. (Pierre Rosenberg de l’Académie française, Président-directeur honoraire du Musée du Louvre) This volume of the journal Kermes devoted to the meticulous technical analysis of several works by Nicolas Poussin, reveals the wealth of knowledge acquired through the implementation of new methods of physico-chemical analysis taken together with the detailed investigation of the handling and materials deployed during the process of creating the work of art. A number of different means have been employed in order to investigate in the greatest detail the nature of a particular pigment, its impurities, the effects of the addition of a medium as well as the effects created by mixtures … (Philippe Walter, Directeur du Laboratoire d’archéologie moléculaire et structurale, CNRS-UMR 8820, Université Pierre et Marie Curie) indice/Index: speciale – NICOLAS POUSSIN.

  • Pages : 329 pages

Download or read book The Wicked Traveler written by Howard Tomb and published by Workman Publishing. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Respond to Japanese Noh theater like a native: Kazoku sorrote no seppuku ga yokatta. (ÒI love the part where the whole family disembowels themselves.Ó) Speak to homicidal Parisian taxi drivers in a language they'll understand: Ou avez-vous appris ˆ conduire? En Italie? (ÒWhere did you learn to drive? Italy?Ó) Discuss Italian olive oil with the proper degree of reverence: Un assaggio ti dice che le olive sono maturate di fronte ad una cattedrale. (ÒOne taste tells you the olives grew in full view of the cathedral.Ó) Establish privacy needs in Mexico: Preferir’a una habitaci—n sin alacranes. (ÒI'd prefer a room without scorpions.Ó) With seven titles and over 1.2 million copies in print, Howard Tomb's Wicked phrase book series is the fiendishly irreverentÑand very successfulÑcollection that gives travelers the words they wish they could utter while, say, attempting to find the exit of the Louvre or facing a plate of fugu (poisonous blowfish) in Japan. Now, the five most popular Wicked booksÑItalian, French, Japanese, German, and SpanishÑ have been updated and compiled into The Wicked Traveler. A$25 value for $8.95, it's the ultimate impulse gift for anyone who'd like to know how to say silly things in five different languages. Because, as Howard Tomb writes in his new introduction: ÒEvery country is different, but all foreign places have one thing in common: they're weird.Ó
