Forensic Architecture: A New Photographic Language in a Factual Era
A group of visual activists, architects, software developers and archaeologists as well as a multicultural team composed of artists, investigative journalists and lawyers – an organic organization. Forensic Architecture ‘Investigative aesthetic’ is based on visual aggregation on data allowing viewers to enhance their perception-cognition of events by the integrated use of augmented photography. Their works have been presented in front of a court, but also exhibited at international shows all around the world. FA expanded use of photography, integrating in the urbanistic reconstruction of frames of any kind of multimedia information collected, consider it not simply as a medium, but as a proper tool for triggering critical reflections and political action. Forensic Architecture have mainly been investigating the area of conflicts with the aim to present counter- investigation on unclear circumstances, often underlining social constructs in the public forum. The particular role that FA plays, claiming social truth and assigning to photography the function to be a “civil act,” remarks its place in the history of war photography, and underlines the importance of also having a contra-culture in a post- industrial society, permeated by the presence of technology.

Creative and cultural hub sustainability: from theory to practice
The ‘Cultural and Creative Hub’ (CCH), serves as platform playing a key role in supporting the socio-economic development of the cultural and creative industries. With diverse manifestations–from regions to independent legal entities–it plays a pivotal role in fostering innovation and supporting inclusive and sustainable economic growth. The scattered information on CCHs globally necessitates a systematic approach to define their activities and economic sustainability comprehensively. This paper aims to validate the practices of cultural and creative hubs: questions regarding their objectives, main activities, and therefore their economic sustainability are explored through an extensive global research initiative, analyzing 587 active hubs in various geographic areas. The study integrates systematic and grey literature reviews, leveraging data from hub networks like the British Council and the European Creative Hubs Network. This research seeks to enhance awareness of cultural and creative hubs through a scientific evaluation of their models and activities, fostering sustainable business practices, cultural diversity, and inclusiveness in the cultural and creative sectors
