Tweeting the Pandemic: Universities and Epistemic Leadership in Times of Crisis
No full textThe Covid-19 outbreak might be considered a watershed event which disrupted multiple timescapes on global scale. In a matter of weeks, citizens and well-established institutions found themselves struggling for survival in a radically transformed environment. Within this context, the present chapter proposes a data-driven reflection on how major UK universities managed their public outreach during the first six months of the pandemic. Through the analysis of their Twitter activity, this study describe how different communication strategies were employed by universities to reposition themselves in a context of crisis and how these strategies constructed different forms of leadership. Finally, the chapter argues that post-pandemic universities should design and implement long-term communicative strategies aimed at establishing themselves as major epistemic leaders
Tragedia di un artista di strada. La pratica della cancellazione da eutanasia artistica ad articidio
Full text linkThis article investigates the role and meaning of practices of erasure in contemporary Italian street art culture. Taking Blu's choice of cancelling all his graffiti in the city of Bologna as a case study, I will investigate the limits and possibilities of this artistic performance in both political and social terms. Given the antagonist yet dialogic and dynamic relationship that connects street artists, civic institutions and urban spaces, I will argue that practices of erasure are a key component of the particular form of communication occurring among these actors. Through the analysis of #OccupyMordor, one of Blu's most famous works, I will describe the relationship the author entertained with the city of Bologna highlighting, at the same time, the structural problems raised by institutional museification projects

Topological and Networked Visibility: Politics of Seeing in the Digital Age
No full textToday, the convergence of video-based Internet Communication Technologies (ICTs) is challenging centralized control over cultural topologies. Accordingly, this paper proposes a theoretical prism for the analysis of the sociopolitical impact of online audio-visual communication. More precisely, this study discusses how topological visibility (i.e. culture-based, highly centralized and spatially organized visibility structures) and networked visibility (i.e. occurrence-based, decentralized and network organized visibility structures) interact in today’s digital landscape. To this aim, four examples divided into two clusters will be discussed. The first cluster (i.e. Occupy Movement and BlackBerry Riots) will describe the functioning of topological visibility, while the second cluster (i.e. NO DAPL drone activism and Aleppo residents’ live-streaming) will illustrate how technology-enhanced mediability may create networked spaces of appearance. The paper concludes by arguing that networked visibility does not neutralize the relational nature of the human gaze but rather forces and expands the culturally-defined boundaries of its legitimate social existence
