Diverse Embodied Intelligence:Detecting and Communicating with Unconventional Beings
Michael Levin is the Vannevar Bush Chair and Distinguished Professor of Biology at Tufts University, where he directs both the Allen Discovery Center and the Tufts Center for Regenerative and Developmental Biology. Renowned for his pioneering work at the intersection of developmental biology, synthetic biology, and cognitive science, Prof. Levin investigates how cells and tissues process information to control growth, regeneration, and form. His research explores the collective intelligence of cells, bioelectric signaling, and the emergence of cognition in both natural and synthetic organisms, with applications ranging from regenerative medicine to synthetic bioengineering. Prof. Levin is widely recognized for co-discovering xenobots—programmable living machines made from frog cells—and has published over 350 scientific papers. His work has been featured in major scientific and popular media.00:00 Introduction by Ben Woodard01:50 Talk by Michael Levin53:20 Discussio

Vídeo documentando conversa entre Stella do Patriocínio e Nelly Gutmacher dirigido pela artista Carla Guagliardi no contexto da Oficina de Livre Expressão Artística, realizada entre 1986 e 1988 no Pavilhão Teixeira Brandão. Video documenting a conversation between Stella do Patrocínio and Nelly Gutmacher directed by artist Carla Guagliardi in the context of the Workshop of Free Artistic Expression, held between 1986 and 1988 at the Teixeira Brandão Pavilion
It’s Stella and a Constellation We Should Be Talking About
In 1986, we began a transformative two-and-a-half-year workshop at the Colônia Juliano Moreira women’s pavilion. Amidst institutional decay and raw humanity, we encountered Stella — her hypnotic voice embodying collective pain and inexplicable beauty that redefined artistic expression and human connection
Falatório/Chatter
Falatório/Chatter delves into the life and work of Stella do Patrocínio (1941–1992), who was confined in Rio de Janeiro’s Colônia Juliano Moreira psychiatric asylum from the age of twenty-one until her death. The unique form of relentless speech that Do Patrocínio produced while institutionalized was dismissed by doctors as mere ‘logorrhoea’. Yet her falatório is far more: a defiant and poetic act that resists erasure by psychiatry, racism, and patriarchy. Drawing on a wide range of archival material, this book presents transcriptions of Do Patrocínio’s chatter in Portuguese and English, amplifying her voice as a testament to survival, power, and resistance.AcknowledgmentsEditorial Statement on EthicsTranslator’s NotePreface by Mariléa de AlmeidaStella do Patrocínio’s Falatório: Notes on Context and Content | IRACEMA DULLEY AND MARLON MIGUEL | 1-38[Audio recorded by Carla Guagliardi] | STELLA DO PATROCÍNIO | 39-179Caderno/Notebook | STELLA DO PATROCÍNIO | 181-191Versos, Reversos, Pensamentos e Algo Mais… / Verses, Reverses, Thoughts, and More… | STELLA DO PATROCÍNIO | 193-243[Video recorded by Carla Guagliardi] | STELLA DO PATROCÍNIO | 245-251COMMENTARIESIt’s Stella and a Constellation We Should Be Talking About | CARLA GUAGLIARDI | 255-262Why Read and Listen to Stella do Patrocínio? | ANNA CAROLINA ZACHARIAS | 263-267Orality and Listening as an Ethical Practice at the Bispo do Rosário Contemporary Art Museum | CAROLINA RODRIGUES DE LIMA AND DIANA KOLKER CARNEIRO DA CUNHA | 269-280ADDITIONAL ONLINE MATERIAL[Video of Audio 1] | STELLA DO PATROCÍNIOReferencesNotes on the Contributor
Il Proust di Pasolini:Qualche appunto
Il saggio documenta l’esistenza nel primo Pasolini narratore di un’ipotesi Proust alla quale solo in un secondo tempo, in seguito all’innamoramento delle ‘borgate’, si è sostituita una più visibile, duratura e rivendicata ipotesi Dante, dopo un periodo di singolare convivenza testimoniata dai racconti dei primi anni Cinquanta confluiti in Alì dagli occhi azzurri (1965)
Da Sartre «fascista» a Sartre «presente e morto»:«L’addio a Parigi» di Pasolini
L’articolo analizza l’evoluzione del pensiero di Pasolini sulla Francia e su Sartre. Inizialmente, in «L’addio a Parigi», Pasolini critica la Francia per la sua decadenza, arrivando a definire Sartre “fascista” in quanto esponente di una cultura borghese morente e incapace di rinnovamento. Dopo l’incontro con Sartre nel 1962 Pasolini, in «Profezia», esplora l’idea della violenza rivoluzionaria attraverso la figura di Alì dagli Occhi Azzurri, legata alla resistenza algerina. Nonostante questa apertura, Pasolini ribadisce il suo completo rifiuto della violenza come strumento di lotta. Negli anni successivi, la figura di Sartre si trasforma in “San Sartre”, un’icona musealizzata incapace di generare vero scandalo se non attraverso una violenza che Pasolini dal canto suo cerca di superare con altri mezzi
The Undivine Comedy:Dante One and Multiple
I extend Barolini’s method by looking at other forms of ‘camouflaging’ through which Dante diverts our attention from his narrative art: the function of the great characters of the poem and their intertextual relations. The figures that populate the poem are united through the technique of memoria verborum: the ‘allusive art’, or intertextuality. It constitutes a principle that is not only structural but also narratological and aesthetic, establishing a second level of narration beyond the literal one
