Lexicon for an Affective Archive
No full textTo study an archive or archival materials is to encounter an affective and critical practice involved in the construction of memory. Lexicon for an Affective Archive, edited by Giulia Palladini and Marco Pustianaz, is an international collection of these encounters, offering glimpses into the intimate relations inherent in finding, remembering (or imagining), and creating an archive. Bringing together voices from a variety of fields across the humanities, performance studies, and contemporary art, and engaging in a multidisciplinary analysis, this beautifully designed and fully illustrated volume advances the idea of an “affective archive” as a useful conceptual tool—a tool which contributes to an understanding of an expanded notion of an archive and its central role in contemporary visual and performing arts
Domestics against domestication study day
Full text linkDomestics Against Domestication. A study day to rethink practices and politics of the domestic.
Thursday, 30 May 2019, University of Roehampton.
Convened by Dr. Valeria Graziano (Coventry University) and Dr. Giulia Palladini (University of Roehampton).
The starting point for this study day is the idea that the set of activities associated with organizing, maintaining and inhabiting a house constitutes a category in its own right. As much as the organizing, maintaining and inhabiting a polis, this category is not a given, but a field of struggle and imagination
Leksykon Archiwum Afektywnego
No full textLa pubblicazione, commissionata dall'Istituto Nazionale Audiovisivo Polacco (NInA), è il risultato di un progetto editoriale e critico che raccoglie 25 autori internazionali (critici, archivisti, curatori, artisti). Il tema è quello della relazione con l'archivio o con il gesto dell'archiviazione; l'approccio è quello che privilegia la performatività dell'archivio e l'impulso o affetto che ne determina il movimento, la trasmissione, l'accesso e la trasformazione. In questo modo, l'archivio - inteso in senso ampio - da deposito di materiali e oggetti si offre piuttosto come luogo di incontro, conflitto e memorazione sia di un passato che di un possibile futuro. L'introduzione di Pustianaz e Palladini, che hanno concepito il progetto, invitato gli autori e ordinato le voci secondo un proprio percorso associativo, chiarisce il processo di composizione del volume, la nozione di "archivio affettivo" e la metodologia adottata. Del volume è in preparazione l'edizione inglese
Sobre coexistir, reparar e imaginar: notas acerca das domésticas da performance
Full text linkIn this essay, the Italian writer, researcher, and educator Giulia Palladini invites us to rethink the linguistic saturation resulting from the use of the binomial performance and politics, by proposing what she calls the domestics of performance. Therefore, the author resorts to non-domesticated notions of the domestic, with the aim of investigating ways to shift the politics of performance to the domestics of performance. Thus, the author intends to demonstrate that feeling at home can be a way of evoking the power of performance to invent other manners of imagining, repairing, and coexisting.En este ensayo, la escritora, investigadora y educadora italiana Giulia Palladini nos invita a repensar la saturación lingüística resultante del uso del binomio performance y política, proponiendo lo que ella llama doméstica del performance. Para ello, la autora recurre a nociones no domesticadas de lo doméstico, con el objetivo de investigar formas de mover la política del performance a la doméstica del performance. De esta manera, la autora pretende demostrar que sentirse como en casa puede ser una forma de evocar el poder de la performance para inventar otras maneras de imaginar, reparar y convivir.Neste ensaio, a escritora, pesquisadora e educadora italiana Giulia Palladini nos convida a repensarmos a saturação linguística decorrente do uso do binômio performance e política, ao propor aquilo que designa como domésticas da performance.

All that glitters is not gold : on the overuse of the "A" word
No full textAgnieszka Dauksza writes about słowo/obraz terytoria publishers recent Leksykon archiwum afektywnego [Lexicon of an Affective Archive] (curators: Giulia Palladini, Marco Pustianaz, ed. Katarzyna Tórz, Gdańsk-Warsaw 2015). The publication was created on the initiative of the pair of curators, and includes twenty-five articles they commissioned. Dauksza critiques the abuse of such terms as "affect" or "trauma" without reflection on the historical traditions of these concepts. The author does, however, attempt to perceive the value of the publication as well, whose main attraction is the descriptions by the artists (particularly Warning/Ostrzeżenia by Rabih Mroué
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
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
