Piccole capitali creative

2011

Nel secolo urbano che abbiamo di fronte, la città sarà lo scenario della competizione delle energie, delle risorse umane, delle intelligenze collettive e della creatività per la costruzione di un’evoluzione più compatibile con le identità e le vocazioni e più sostenibile rispetto alle risorse ed alle sensibilità del territorio. I segnali delle sue forme, delle sue relazioni e delle sue identità sono già evidenti in alcune città del presente ed ad essi sono dedicate numerose ricerche urbanistiche, sociologiche ed economiche. Ma i segnali sono evidenti e trasmettono ispirazioni e stimoli anche a chi osserva la città per mestiere di progettista, di pianificatore, di stratega dello sviluppo. Il…

Le città come attori dello sviluppo

2017

Il capitolo parte dal considerare la nuova centralità che le città hanno assunto nella fase attuale del capitalismo e le ragioni di tale centralità. Vengono poi ripercorsi e descritti alcuni modelli teorici di riferimento con cui la letteratura ha studiato il ruolo delle città nei processi di crescita e in particolare viene fatto riferimento al modello di città creativa, a quello di città globale e al modello di città europea. Il capitolo infine prende in considerazione esempi di ricerca applicata che utilizzano i modelli teorici presentati e discussi.

Developing a conceptual framework for the co-operative and mutual enterprise business model

2018

AbstractThe co-operative and mutual enterprise business model represents a unique type of organisation that has a dual purpose focused on both economic and social goals. For nearly two centuries it has played an important role in economic development, job creation and addressing market failures. However, despite its potential importance to economic development it has been largely ignored within the mainstream economics and management literature. This paper provides an overview of the nature of the co-operative and mutual enterprise business model and also proposes a business model framework or ‘canvas’ that can be used for research, teaching and strategic analysis.

Assessing the Enlargement and Deepening of the European Union

2008

This paper estimates a theoreticallymotivated gravity model to examine the effect of the European Union (EU) on trade and whet her the order of entry has affected the trade performance of member countries. Additionally, we analyse the impact of the diffe rent phases of EU integration on trade. The results show that both original countries and successive enlargements boost intra-b loc trade. Moreover, the results suggest that the deepening in the integration process has led to more trade creation among members. Finally, only the latter ph ase of the European integration process (the single currency) has increased trade with non-members.

How Journalists Think about Media Effects—And Why We Should Care

2019

Research suggests that journalists’ beliefs about media effects are influenced by unsystematically gathered knowledge and subjective-intuitive judgments. However, it has also been shown that these presumptions must be considered important factors for the formation of journalistic coverage. Against this background, this article synthesizes existing research on dimensions, determinants, and consequences of journalists’ presumptions of media effects. The resulting framework offers researchers in the field of journalistic content production a comprehensive overview of the possible role that presumptions of media effects could play for journalistic content creation. In a second step, we summariz…

CREATIVE TOOLS FOR THE FORMATION OF PUBLIC SIGNS IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT OF THE BALTIC STATES

2014

<p>In public space there is the information, that is always designed with a specific purpose. For example, signposts are placed to provide direction guidance and to highlight some of the most important objects. Public signs function as the visiting cards of some institution or enterprise, creating indirectly a definite image of these institutions or some ethnic or social groups, while graffiti is written to create and maintain a public image and to express emotions or attitudes towards some person, a group of people, events or processes. To achieve the expected objective the authors of signs often use the eye-catching texts that differ from linguistic and para-linguistic means, such a…

Creativity in Conceptual Spaces

2014

The main aim of this paper is contributing to what in the last few years has been known as computational creativity. This will be done by showing the relevance of a particular mathematical representation of G"ardenfors's conceptual spaces to the problem of modelling a phenomenon which plays a central role in producing novel and fruitful representations of perceptual patterns: analogy.

Creation and cognition for humanoid live dancing

2016

Abstract Computational creativity in dancing is a recent and challenging research field in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. We present a cognitive architecture embodied in a humanoid robot capable to create and perform dances driven by the perception of music. The humanoid robot is able to suitably move, to react to human mate dancers and to generate novel and appropriate sequences of movements. The approach is based on a cognitive architecture that integrates Hidden Markov Models and Genetic Algorithms. The system has been implemented on a NAO robot and tested in public setting-up live performances, obtaining positive feedbacks from the audience.
