DIESSE - Convivialità ed estetica delle atmosfere
2017
Il saggio utilizza la chiave di lettura dell'estetica delle atmosfere, introdotta nel dibattito neofenomenologico dal filosofo tedesco Gernot Boehme, per analizzare il design di alcuni prodotti della linea BIBO-DIESSE
RECENSIONE a: Andrea Mecacci, Estetica e design, Bologna, Il Mulino, 2012 e Dario Russo, Il design dei nostri tempi, Milano, Lupetti, 2012,
2013
La recensione doppia mette in luce come l'estetica dell’oggetto quotidiano si rivela un ambito di studio attuale e denso di sviluppi, purché si consideri il design una strategia progettuale volta a innescare processi virtuosi di crescita economica e socio-culturale nel rispetto dell’ambiente e l’estetica come una prospettiva epistemologica capace di includere anche valori etici.
Small molecule modulators of amine oxidation, nuclear receptor signaling and glucuronidation : 3-phenylcoumarin as a scaffold of interest
2018
The costs of the drug development process are moderated as computer-aided drug design methods are able to expedite the steps required for lead identification. In fact, computational tools are nowadays virtually indispensable from target identification and validation to preclinical tests due to exponential growth of available information regarding both potential targets and small molecules. One such small molecule with growing number of variations is coumarin. Coumarin scaffold and its various derivatives continue to interest researchers for their vast application potential. Since naturally occurring coumarins are known for example for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, thos…
Education Hub. Ambasciata mobile di Manifesta 12 a Palermo.
2018
Il design per gli eventi culturali, con specifiche competenze nell’allestimento temporaneo e nei dispositivi comunicativi, è oggi un campo di sperimentazione delle strategie di co-design per l’innovazione sociale nei contesti urbani. In occasione di Manifesta 12, Biennale nomade che, nel 2018, a Palermo, la dimensione urbana è stata un laboratorio di sperimentazioni progettuali multidimensionali; il progetto Education Hub, “ambasciata mobile” di Manifesta nelle periferie urbane, è stato centrato sul design e sviluppato con una molteplicità di attori, in diversi luoghi della città. L’esperienza viene letta attraverso il lavoro degli studenti di design di Palermo, non solo giovani designer co…
Urban Services to Ecosystems: An Introduction
2021
Green infrastructure is a structural system of naturally developed human societies, capable of preserving and ensuring as much space as possible to the local biodiversity. For this reason, green infrastructure shall be planned and designed so that the urban built environment is in harmony with the surrounding biotic communities. The challenge is to sustain nature-based solutions in order to improve citizens’ awareness towards natural and semi-natural ecosystems while providing our society with a more liveable, healthier, safer and fairer environment. This book puts an emphasis on the services the city can offer to nature, thanks to a multidisciplinary approach involving scientists and pract…
Evidence-based programming language design : a philosophical and methodological exploration
2015
Background: Programming language design is not usually informed by empirical studies. In other fields similar problems have inspired an evidence-based paradigm of practice. Such a paradigm is practically inevitable in language design, as well. Aims: The content of evidence-based programming design (EB-PLD) is explored, as is the concept of evidence in general. Additionally, the extent of evidence potentially useful for EB-PLD is mapped, and the appropriateness of Cohen’s kappa for evaluating coder agreement in a secondary study is evaluated. Method: Philosophical analysis and explication are used to clarify the unclear. A systematic mapping study was conducted to map out the existing body of…
Exhibition Design Stories : metodi e pratiche di fruizione della cultura
2022
Museums, the main actors in the conservation and communication of works and promoters of a cultural offer, are at the center of a profound transformation; the technological aspects are the most obvious phenomenon, which increases the ability to accommodate and structure an ever-increasing request for participation and socialization on the part of the user. In particular, the importance of museum accessibility is described through the activation of participatory design processes which, through a narrative construction, are able to produce meaningful knowledge processes. The designer is able to articulate, mediate, coordinate, with awareness and effectiveness, the great complexity implemented…
Designing for Positive User Experience in Work Contexts: Experience Categories and their Applications
2018
Experience categories describe repeatedly occurring qualities of positive experiences that can be used for the analysis and generation of new/further/more positive experiences. This paper describes experience categories for the workplace. Based on 345 reports of positive user experiences in the workplace, we identified 17 experience categories through qualitative content analysis and describe their necessary and optional attributes. We believe that experience categories can support analysis and design activities for the work place in three ways: (a) using the questions derived from experience interviews to analyze existing positive experiences in work contexts, (b) explaining the potential …
Is clinical experience important for obtaining the primary stability of dental implants with aggressive threads? An ex vivo study
2018
GECKILI, ONUR/0000-0002-7852-3915; dayan, suleyman cagatay/0000-0003-3081-9618; Bilhan, Hakan/0000-0003-1787-3003 WOS:000460131200015 PubMed ID: 30818319 Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the clinicians' experience on maintaining the primary stability of implants with aggressive threads belonging to a novel dental implant system. Material and Methods: Three hundred implants with aggressive threads were inserted in fresh bovine ribs mimicking Type IV bone by five clinicians which were classified according to their previous experience of total number of implant insertion. An independent examiner measured the primary stability of all implants after insertion by using resonan…
Aligned microcontact printing of biomolecules on microelectronic device surfaces
2001
Microcontact printing (/spl mu/CP) of extracellular matrix proteins is a fascinating approach to control cell positioning and outgrowth, which is essential in the development of applications ranging from cellular biosensors to tissue engineering. Microelectronic devices can be used to detect the activity from a large number of recording sites over the long term. However, signals from cells can only be recorded at small sensitive spots. Here, the authors present an innovative setup to perform aligned /spl mu/CP of extracellular matrix proteins on microelectronic devices in order to guide the growth of electrogenic cells specifically to these sensitive spots. The authors' system is based on t…
