Occasioni di legacy e dove trovarle
No full textParliamo di una occasione che si è aperta nel groviglio di strette strade napoletane e ai piedi della collina che domina la città, occasione iscritta nel progetto Urbact 2nd Chance Waking up the sleeping giants. Il gigante è un grande convento seicentesco, poi ospedale militare, ora in parte dismesso, un chiostro aperto che guarda al paesaggio della città storica. In questo contesto si iscrive la proposta di ’NaScala – stairway to heaven, una struttura temporanea, per un nuovo accesso dal basso al complesso della S.S. Trinità delle Monache. ’NaScala si propone come cantiere aperto, un grande espositore lineare realizzato con componenti propri degli allestimenti per eventi, che racconti le trasformazioni in atto e funga da occasione per amplificare nella città il suono dei cambiamenti. ’NaScala è luminosa: le pedate, sustainable energy floor, calpestate producono energia da reimpiegare per l’illuminazione notturna. La nuova accessibilità fisica e simbolica, mediatica e temporanea, rivela le potenzialità di una bellezza inespressa, nascosta, velata

No full textA way for the italian inner area Montagna Materana: rethink the abandonment from Craco
No full textThe tiny village of Craco towers on a ravine in the middle of Basilicata. Craco is a ghost village among the towns in the Inner Area Montagna Materana. It is totally deserted, while not so far away, a new town has been built. Indeed, following on from the abandonment, some local organizations have started several ventures to boost studies about this place, as well as temporary uses of spaces. This paper presents the results of a research that starts from the National Strategy for Inner Areas (SNAI) and investigates on the potential of design for inner districts. The hypothesis of a strategy for the Montagna Materana made up of widespread projects arises from the coexistence of different landscapes and communities. For this reason, the architectural proposal in Craco is a part of a broader incremental strategy proposed considering the uncertain future of this area, and admitting the possible abandonment: somehow, learning from Craco
A Decision Support System for Cultural and Territorial Infrastructures: A Place-Based and Community-Driven Strategy in Inner Italy
No full textThe study presents a methodological approach, characterized by scalability and replicability, aimed at developing a sustainable territorial strategy, supported by a Collaborative Spatial Decision Support System (CSDSS). The main objective is to elaborate a regeneration process for infrastructure and territorial contexts capable of stimulating situated actions within Inner Italy, where urban revitalisation processes grounded in the concept of community archives could be implemented. The CSDSS is tailored towards a place-based and community-driven strategy for the territory of Atena Lucana, in Southern Italy. It unfolds in three interconnected phases: first, a knowledge phase with a comprehensive understanding of the territory through the integration of various data types; second, an evaluative phase including multi-group analysis supported by the SOCRATES method and multi-criteria analysis employing the integration of QGIS and GeoTopsis methods; third, the data output with the formulation of a suitable strategy for territorial sustainability through collaborative decision-making processes
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
