Le schede di Ferruccio Ferroni
Senigallia è nominata dal Consiglio Regionale delle Marche “Città della fotografia”.
Patria di Giuseppe Cavalli, Ferruccio Ferroni, Mario Giacomelli e altri fotografi, è riconosciuta luogo d’eccezione per la storia della fotografia italiana. Dal 2019 ospita un'ambiziosa Biennale di Fotografia co-organizzata dal Comune e da Serge Plantureux, con la collaborazione di Francesca Bonetti. In tale contesto sono pubblicati i "Taccuini maltagliati" dedicati ai singoli autori
Atlante artistico-botanico della flora e del paesaggio del Nord Italia
Il progetto interdisciplinare prevede la realizzazione di un atlante iconografico della vegetazione e del paesaggio del Nord Italia. Lo studio si concentra sulle opere d’arte contemporanea conservate presso musei, collezioni, residenze, archivi pubblici e privati, analizzandone l’elemento naturale. L’obiettivo del lavoro è quello di indagare il paesaggio mediante la rappresentazione artistica e al contempo leggere il manufatto d’arte attraverso le specie botaniche e gli ambienti naturali e agricoli in esso incluse.
Partendo dallo studio delle specificità vegetazionali dei singoli territori e indagando le strategie di pianificazione, salvaguardia e gestione poste in essere dalle regioni esaminate (Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Liguria, Lombardia, Piemonte, Trentino Alto Adige, Valle D’Aosta, Veneto), il progetto vuole assegnare all’opera d’arte il ruolo di testimone della trasformazione dei luoghi nel tempo, legandosi alle tematiche più recenti di tutela dell’ambiente.
A tale scopo, un approccio interdisciplinare comprendente la Storia dell’Arte e la Botanica assicura una globale ricognizione circa l’assetto complessivo, i sistemi di coltivazione, i segni di antropizzazione e i fenomeni trasformativi del Nord Italia. L’obiettivo è altresì quello di mappare le singole peculiarità territoriali per mezzo delle opere, pittoriche o fotografiche, e gli elementi paesaggistici in esse presenti in ragione di una nuova modalità di lettura dell'opera.
L’atlante, infatti, nel testimoniare la storia dell’evoluzione del paesaggio italiano contemporaneo mediante la catalogazione e la schedatura di opere appositamente selezionate, definisce un profilo storico-artistico e botanico delle stesse, fornendo elementi di georeferenziazione e di confronto tra il tangibile e il raffigurato.
Il vaglio iconografico delle opere che meglio rappresentano le specificità regionali è strutturato sulla verosimiglianza del dato naturalistico in esse contenuto, che favorisce la lettura botanica dell’opera.The interdisciplinary project involves the creation of an iconographic atlas of the vegetation and landscape of Northern Italy. The study focuses on contemporary works of art exhibited in museums, collections, residences, public and private archives, analyzing the natural element. The goal of the project is to investigate the landscape through the artistic representation and at the same time, to evaluate the artwork through the botanical species and the natural and agricultural environments included in it.
Starting from the study of the vegetation specificities of the individual territories and investigating the planning, safeguarding and management strategies implemented by the regions examined (Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Liguria, Lombardy, Piedmont, Trentino Alto Adige, Valle D'Aosta, Veneto), the project aims at assigning to the work of art the role of witness to the transformation of places over time, linking it to the most recent topics of environmental protection.
To this end, an interdisciplinary approach including History of Art and Botany ensures a global recognition of the overall layout, cultivation systems, signs of anthropisation and transformative phenomena in Northern Italy. The goal is also to map the individual territorial peculiarities through the works, whether pictorial or photographic, and the landscape elements present in them in a brand new way.
By witnessing the history of the evolution of the contemporary Italian landscape through the cataloguing and filing of specially selected works, the atlas defines a historical-artistic and botanical profile of the works themselves,, providing elements of georeferencing and comparison between the tangible and the represented.
The iconographic screening of the works that best represent the regional specificities is based on the verisimilitude of the naturalistic element contained in them, which facilitates a botanical approach to reading the work of art
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
“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
We 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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
