No full textNew Next Nature takes root in precise places and flourishes by exploiting the conditions of the “suspended”
and “waiting” areas. OC OPEN CITY International Summer School has always had, since its first edition in
2010, a recognizable identity: to develop projects with
global themes, experimenting and testing them locally,
in the complementary landscapes that the particular
urban and territorial condition of Piacenza gives us.
The preparatory phase for OC2017 has further strengthened this double register by developing a rich and integrated background where the dense and stable parts of
city is continuously compared with large areas (highlighted in yellow and black in the diagram alongside)
available for transformation. The will of the OC direction and coordination is precise to the condition that no
categories are proposed: empty areas and abandoned
areas, internal areas and external areas, private areas
and public areas, areas with precise functional destination and areas without definition
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Future urban utopias
No full textThe main issues, through the scenario of urban utopias, concern the forms of the city of the future, and mainly the relationship between nature and artifice in the urban context stressing a second theme, the contamination. From here some questions were developed: what are the possible integrations of innovative forms of use of nature in the contemporary city? What could be the potential sustainable landscapes to be designed for the future of our cities
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
