Apple, Ibm and Microsoft in a war of signs
2007
The aim of my paper is exploring how image contributes on building the brand identity of specific organisations and how the meaning of the image can be resignified by the action of the players in a specific market. In particular, I will focus on the competition between three brands, Ibm, Apple, Microsoft. on the information technology market. My work is looking forward to be a continuation of the essay “Le vie du Logo” published in “Identités visuelles” by Jean Marie Floch about the visual competition between Apple and Ibm. I will use the tools of sociosemiotics, plastic and figurative analysis, screening more than 20 years of competition starting from 1984, the year in which the analysis o…
Ambienti digitali ed extended reality: alcune questioni semiotiche a partire da esempi di branding e retailing.
2021
This article raises some semiotic questions about extendend reality that involves the wide range of digital technologies including VR (virtual reality), AR (augmented reality) and MR (mixed reality), drawing on some cases from the world of organised retail and branding. We are talking about a set of technologies that, since the beginning of their creation and today in the fields in which they are most used, have brought to the surface, because they have questioned them, a series of theoretical problems of great interest for semiotics, such as corporeality and perception, the situation of fruition and the change of point of view, but also the narrative dimension produced - or not produced - …
Exploring Post-COVID-19 Branding Strategies of African Destinations
2023
AbstractThe lifting of COVID-19 restrictions has led to the opening of many tourism destinations, with many destination marketing organizations (DMOs) adopting different strategies to attract tourists. This study explores the post-COVID-19 branding strategies of four award-winning African destinations (South Africa, Kenya, Morocco, and Mauritius) and how they utilize social media to communicate their destination brand identities. We curated the tweets of the National Tourism Boards of the examined destinations from their official Twitter accounts and analyzed them using Atlas.ti. We found that each of the destinations uniquely identifies and communicates its destination’s competitive advant…
Apple, Ibm e Microsoft in una guerra di segni
2009
L'obiettivo dell'articolo è esplorare come l'immagine contribuisce alla costruzione della brand identity di specifiche organizzazioni e come l'immagine può essere "risifignicata" dall'azione dei concorrenti in un mercato determinato. In particolare, l'articolo si studia la competizione tra tre brand, Ibm, Apple e Microsoft nel mercato dell'information tecnology. Il mio lavoro vuole essere una continuazione del saggio "la via del logo" pubblicato in "Identità visive" di Jean Marie Floch sulla competizione visiva tra Apple e Ibm. Gli strumenti utilizzati sono quelli della sociosemiotica, in particolare dell'analisi plastica e figurativa, lungo più di vent'anni di competizione a partire dal 19…

Tattoo branding
2018
Questo contributo indaga una pratica specifica di quelle che riguardano la body modification: il branding, ovvero la marchiatura a fuoco del corpo. Si confronta questo fenomeno con quello del tatuaggio tradizionalmente inteso, dal punto di vista espressivo (modelli di corpo, forme della marchiatura) e dei significati sociali connessi (valorizzazioni sociali e storiche della marchiatura a fuoco), con un confronto anche con altre pratiche di marchiatura a fuoco (su cose e animali).

Video Recruitment : Online Perspectives and Implications for Employer Branding
2022
Video recruitment—the use of videos at any point in the recruitment process—has surged among organizations as a strategy for hiring talent and operating in their respective fields amid the pandemic. In particular, video interviews have become mainstream at the assessment stage of the recruitment funnel to keep hiring workers in a remote context of work. Among job video interviews, the asynchronous type especially raised interest and concerns online. This chapter offers a novel and essential approach to the study of video interviews through the theoretical exploration of the crossover between HRM, marketing, and information technology, with the goal of uncovering several ways that employer b…
La “marca personal” en la academia los procesos de subjetivación en las condiciones de trabajo del profesorado universitario
2021
En nuestro tiempo uno de los discursos más populares del gerencialismo es el personal branding. La literatura de la marca personal moviliza un nuevo modelo de empleabilidad adscrito a racionalidades neoliberales y emprendedoras. En este trabajo nos aproximamos a las prácticas académicas afines a estas racionalidades. El régimen corporativo y digital de la universidad contemporánea insta a las y los académicos a promocionar(se) como una marca bibliográfica personal. No obstante, perviven conductas académicas de resistencia a esta rúbrica de la excelencia bibliométrica.
