An android architecture for bio-inspired honest signalling in Human-Humanoid Interaction
2017
Abstract This paper outlines an augmented robotic architecture to study the conditions of successful Human-Humanoid Interaction (HHI). The architecture is designed as a testable model generator for interaction centred on the ability to emit, display and detect honest signals. First we overview the biological theory in which the concept of honest signals has been put forward in order to assess its explanatory power. We reconstruct the application of the concept of honest signalling in accounting for interaction in strategic contexts and in laying bare the foundation for an automated social metrics. We describe the modules of the architecture, which is intended to implement the concept of hon…

L’esperienza dell’immagine: il Denkraum der Besonnenheit di Aby Warburg
2014
Il lavoro si fonda sull’idea che il periodo del ricovero (1921-1924) di Aby Warburg nella clinica di Bellevue (Kreuzlingen), allora diretta da Ludwig Binswanger, debba essere considerato centrale per lo sviluppo teorico dello studioso amburghese. Piuttosto che liquidare come lungo momento di buio gli anni della malattia, si è ritenuto utile riflettere sulle connessioni tra l’esperienza e l’attitudine esistenziale di Warburg e gli sviluppi della sua ricerca. Prendendo in esame la celebre conferenza sul rituale del serpente (A lecture on Serpent Ritual) che lo storico dell’arte tedesco tenne nel 1923 a Kreuzlingen, con il consenso di Binswanger, per attestare la sua guarigione davanti a un pu…
The form of "Denkraum":Tecnique and Representation in the Kreuzlingen Lecture
2013
In 1895 Aby Warburg decides to complement his theoretical research with field anthropological observation, directly experiencing habits, rituals and customs of the Hopi natives. Warburg meticulously documents his journey with his Box Camera Kodak, one of the first devices ever produced by the firm. Within the theoretical framework of unitary knowledge, that is a space of integration between different methods and disciplines, his choice of expressive media offers the opportunity to explore and experiment its peculiar potential. His interest in technique is combined with a non-formalistic aesthetic stance, according to which art coincides with a specifically hum biological need. It is then a …
Dall’iperestetica all’anestetica: la negazione dell’umano nella società dell’apparenza
2021
Viviamo nella “società dell’immagine” che ottunde la sensibilità e produce indifferenza. Il saggio mette a fuoco la ricerca ossessiva di una bellezza superficiale e apparente in ogni ambito della vita quotidiana e la conseguente perdita dei valori morali. Per contrastare questa anestetizzazione dovuta all’esasperata tendenza all’eccesso e al superamento dei limiti del giusto, del necessario, del conveniente e del bello, il saggio propone di recuperare l’antica dimensione etico-estetica del bello in linea con alcuni interessi dell’Everyday Aesthetics. We live in the "society of the image" that obtunds sensitivity and produces indifference. The essay focuses on the obsessive search for a shal…

Bello e Idea nell’estetica del Seicento
2007
The Beautiful and The Idea in 17th-Century Aesthetics In his renowned lecture on the Idea, which he delivered at the Academy of Saint Luke in 1664, Giovan Pietro Bellori asserts the superiority of ideal beauty against the slavish imitation of reality and the unbridled freedom of the imagination. However, an equally important, albeit lesser known, contributor to the formulation of this classicist aesthetic theory is Giovan Battista Agucchi, author of a Treatise on Painting that appeared in fragmentary form in 1646. In this work, Agucchi identifes beauty as the truest and highest aim of painting; he attributes to the artist the power to contemplate the Idea, and confers a profound cognitive v…
