    Fotografia e(m) Arquitetura: Uma narrativa visual do Museu de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso' propõe uma reflexão sobre fotografia de arquitetura, sobre a sua conceção, produção, significado e aceitação. O trabalho visa explorar a interseção entre a fotografia e a arquitetura, tendo como caso de estudo o Museu de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, produzindo uma narrativa visual que pretende contribuir para a compreensão e apreciação do espaço arquitetónico, com um enfoque específico no Museu. Partindo de uma compreensão abrangente sobre a prática e disciplina da arquitetura, este estudo explora diversas dimensões em volta da fotografia e da sua importância no universo arquitetónico, em particular, quando a imagem fotográfica transcende o estrito registo técnico e documental, incorporando uma capacidade crítica e interpretativa sobre o espaço de arquitetura. Tendo como base estas premissas, este estudo esclarece os diversos usos possíveis da fotografia em volta da arquitetura, com enfoque na fotografia documental artística, que proporciona um olhar exploratório, crítico e poético sobre esta prática e disciplina, resultando numa nova compreensão do espaço em função da estratégia artística adotada. Fotografias que são documentos visuais capazes de comunicar as múltiplas dimensões da arquitetura, sem os constrangimentos associados à sua construção no território. É argumento, nesta dissertação, que a interseção da fotografia com a arquitetura tem um potencial imenso para comunicar de uma forma diferenciada as obras de arquitetura e os seus espaços, seja a um público vasto, seja a especialistas. Este potencial, acrescido pelas capacidades tecnológicas e pela cultura digital da contemporaneidade, permite uma comunicação da arquitetura com uma maior riqueza e profundidade, distanciando-se assim do que Nuno Grande apelidou de "imagofilia"1. Para além da sua experiência comunicativa, esta dissertação explora como a fotografia se integra no processo de produção do projeto arquitetónico. Neste contexto, a fotografia comunica, mas também influencia e molda a prática arquitetónica, oferecendo novos modos de perceção e interpretação do espaço. A fotografia surge como um componente ativo e essencial no processo e na materialização de projetos de arquitetura. Através do caso de estudo do Museu de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, procura-se criar uma narrativa visual, a partir da fotografia, que confirme o potencial deste instrumento de representação visual para um reconhecimento diferenciado da obra e capaz de uma comunicação poética e crítica da arquitetura. Em suma, 'Fotografia e(m) Arquitetura: Uma narrativa visual do Museu de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso' é um ensaio que explora as possibilidades e a responsabilidade da fotografia de arquitetura na construção da consciência, comunicação e apreciação da obra arquitetónica.'Fotografia e(m) Arquitetura: Uma narrativa visual do Museu de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso' proposes a reflection on architectural photography, focusing on its conception, production, meaning, and acceptance. The work aims to explore the intersection between photography and architecture, using the Museu Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso as a case study, and to produce a visual narrative that contributes to the understanding and appreciation of architectural space, with a specific emphasis on the Museum. Starting from a comprehensive understanding of architectural practice and discipline, this study explores various dimensions surrounding photography and its importance in the architectural universe, in particular, when the photographic image transcends strict technical and documentary function, incorporating a critical and interpretative capacity regarding the architectural space. Based on these premises, this study clarifies the various possible uses of photography in the context of architecture, with a focus on artistic documentary photography, which provides an exploratory, critical, and poetic view of this practice and discipline, resulting in a new understanding of space according to the adopted artistic strategy. Photographs are visual documents capable of communicating the multiple dimensions of architecture, without the constraints associated with its construction on site. This thesis argues that the intersection of photography and architecture has immense potential to communicate architectural works and their spaces in a differentiated way, whether to a broad audience or to specialists. This potential, enhanced by technological capabilities and contemporary digital culture, allows for a richer and deeper communication of architecture, thus distancing itself from what Nuno Grande referred to as "imagophilia"1. Beyond its communicative experience, this thesis explores how photography integrates into the architectural project production process. In this context, photography not only communicates but also influences and shapes architectural practice, offering new modes of perception and interpretation of space. Photography emerges as an active and essential component in the process and materialisation of architectural projects. Through the case study of the Museo de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso, this work seeks to create a visual narrative, through photography, that confirms the potential of this visual representation tool for a differentiated recognition of the work and the ability for a poetic and critical communication of architecture. In summary, 'Fotografia e(m) Arquitetura: Uma narrativa visual do Museu de Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso' is an essay that explores the possibilities and responsibilities of architectural photography in the construction of awareness, communication, and appreciation of architectural works

    Sintomas de “regionalismo crítico”: sobre o “decorativismo” na pintura de Amadeo de Souza Cardoso

    No full text
    This article discusses at its outset the way Portuguese art history acknowledged and debated the relation that Amadeo Souza Cardoso’s painting establishes between international modernism and its regional Portuguese provenance. This debate imposed the idea that Amadeo’s national origins brought about, by way of the putative Portuguese disregard of main cultural and aesthetic standards, a trace of provincialism, eventually making his work unable of any critical stance. This provincialism is diagnosed on the basis of Amadeo’s decorative appropriation of Robert Delaunay’s simultaneous color circles. This article discusses this thesis, demonstrating that, far from the reactionary drive associated to it, Amadeo’s decorative interpretation of such element must, instead, be understood as a symptom of resistance, one that can be acknowledged as approaching the idea of “critical regionalism”. A final hypothesis suggests that the invisibility of this symptom arises from a perspective that associates modernism to the overcoming of representation in art.Se analiza cómo la historiografía portuguesa dimensionó la relación que la pintura de Amadeo de Souza Cardoso (1887-1918) establece entre las indagaciones internacionales del modernismo y su regional “portugalidad”. Somos conducidos así a la idea de que el origen portugués introduce en la obra de Amadeo, por putativa insuficiencia cultural y estética, un ingenuo provincianismo desprovisto de instancia crítica. Ese provincianismo lo haría apropiarse decorativamente de los célebres discos simultáneos de Robert Delaunay. Este artículo pretende discutir esa tesis, procurando demostrar que, lejos de la distorsión que se le atribuye, la apropiación “decorativa” que Amadeo hace de ese elemento se inscribe en un plano de resistencia cercano a la idea de “regionalismo crítico”. Sobreviene, por fin, la hipótesis, desarrollada a partir del análisis de una tele de 1917, de que la invisibilidad de tales síntomas de resistencia sea sobre todo deudora de una perspectiva que asocia el modernismo a la superación de la representación en las artes plásticas

    Ibiza en la pintura costumbrista de Amadeo Roca

    No full text
    The controversy that aroused in the thirties provoked by the way in which Amadeo Roca represented the traditional costumes of Ibiza in his paintings acts as the structural axis of this article in order to deepen in the appropriate concept of ideal of group and in the evolutionary process that affects it. The clash between established correctness (limited by the loss of historical memory) and artistic freedom (not lacking ethnographic documentation and content) offers an interesting field of study in which ethnohistorical methodology must take part. Beside this the painter’s convenient stay in a peasant village of the island sketches an anthropological view of the place and the moment, interrelated with the process of achievement and indeed of disappearance of a part of his work.La polémica que en los años treinta suscitó la manera con que se mostraba la indumentaria tradicional ibicenca en la pintura costumbrista de Amadeo Roca sirve de eje estructural al artículo para profundizar en el correspondiente concepto de ideal de grupo y en el proceso evolutivo que le afecta. El enfrentamiento entre la corrección establecida (limitada por la pérdida de memoria histórica) y la libertad artística (no exenta de documentación etnográfica y contenido) ofrece así un interesante campo de estudio en el que ha de tomar parte la metodología etnohistórica. Junto a ello, la oportuna estancia del pintor en un núcleo de la payesía isleña, esboza una visión antropológica del lugar y el momento, interrelacionada con el proceso de realización, e incluso desaparición, de parte de su obra

    Content-centric is an emerging networking paradigm conceived for the future Internet. Data retrieval and distribution are based on content names instead of host addresses. In this paper we propose a content-centric architecture for energy- efficient multihop communications in a wireless mesh network and compare its performances against a legacy IP-based ap- proach

    Enabling Social Digital Twins in the 6G Era with Information Centric Networking

    No full text
    By creating the virtual representation of the elements and services of physical systems, Digital Twins (DTs) are expected to provide crucial support to the ambitious Sixth-generation (6G) applications. Being data-driven entities that process a variety of data in real-Time, DTs can be hosted at the network edge, thus providing low latency services. However, the deployment of a networking architecture supporting the dynamic discovery of DTs and their instantiation at the edge is still an open challenge. To fill the gap, in this article we conceive a solution that leverages two revolutionary paradigms, namely the Social Internet of Things (SIoT) and Information Centric Networking (ICN). On the one hand, SIoT can provide trustworthy interactions between DTs to support effective service discovery and composition. On the other hand, ICN is a network model that includes data-centric primitives and in-network caching to facilitate service provisioning. By combining the two paradigms, we create a new framework where DT services are requested by name and discovered in a timely fashion by navigating a name-based SIoT network. Whenever possible, services already instantiated at the edge are reused to satisfy different clients. After demonstrating the benefits of the envisioned framework with a preliminary evaluation, we highlight research opportunities for this timely topic

    ObjectiveThe objective of this study is to verify the reliability and the concurrent and discriminant validity of the measurements of spasticity offered by the robotic device, quantifying the (1) test–retest reliability, (2) correlation with the clinical evaluation using the Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), (3) inter-rater reliability between the two physiotherapists, and (4) ability to discriminate between healthy and stroke patients.MethodsA total of 20 stroke patients and 20 healthy volunteers participated in the study. Two physical therapists (PT1 and PT2) independently evaluated the hand spasticity of stroke subjects using the MAS. Spasticity was assessed, both in healthy and stroke patients, with the Amadeo device at three increasing velocities of passive movement for three consecutive repeated assessments, while raw data of force and position were collected through an external program.Data analysisThe intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and the weighted kappa were computed to estimate the reliability of the Amadeo device measurements, the inter-rater reliability of MAS, and the correlation between the MAS and Amadeo device measurements. The discriminant ability of the Amadeo device was assessed by comparing the stroke and healthy subjects' spasticity measurements with the percentage of agreements with 0 in MAS for healthy subjects.ResultsThe test–retest reliability of the Amadeo device was high with ICC at all three velocities (ICC = 0.908, 0.958, and 0.964, respectively) but lower if analyzed with weighted kappa correlation (0.584, 0.748, and 0.749, respectively) as mean values for each velocity. The correlation between Amadeo and the clinical scale for stroke patients with weighted kappa correlation was poor (0.280 ± 0.212 for PT1 and 0.290 ± 0.155 for PT2). The inter-rater reliability of the clinical MAS was high (ICC = 0.911).ConclusionBoth MAS and Amadeo spasticity scores showed good reliability. The Amadeo scores did not show a strong clinical correlation with the MAS in stroke patients. Hitherto, Amadeo evaluation shows trends that are consistent with the characteristics of spasticity, such as an increase in spasticity as the speed of muscle stretching increases. The ability of the device to discriminate between stroke patients and healthy controls is low. Future studies adopting an instrumental gold standard for spasticity may provide further insight into the validity of these measurements.</p

    In this paper, a delay tolerant approach for traffic management in LTE over satellite link is presented. Due to the long propagation delays and frequent disruptions, mobile satellite communications pose many challenges, especially to the transport layer when the TCP protocol is used. We design and evaluate the performance of a transport protocol solution based on the DTN architecture in the satellite-LTE system. Our proposal, named Tiny Bundle Layer, acts as an overlay on top of different version
