Donne altrove. Viaggi, scrittura periodica e identità nell'Ottocento inglese
2015
The book focuses on the usage and publication of travelogues by 19th century women travellers to the colonies of the Empire as tools for spreading a new female identity based on courage, strenght, adventurous attitudes, in brief, based on all those features on which male identity had governed the economic, social, political and cultural areas, and last but not least, suffocated the so called 'fragile' gender. the travelogue, that is the writing of a a non fictional travel experience by women, to and in place such as the colonies, considered as the uncivilised and dangerous side of the Empire gave women the possibility to develop and perform their own selves as authoritative, mobile and powe…
La Sala Parpalló en el Centre Cultural La Beneficència (1995-1999)
2020
During the period 1995-1999, the Sala Parpalló was located in the Beneficència Cultural Center of Valencia, sharing the place with the spaces of the Museum of Prehistory, the Museum of Ethnology and the IVEI. In the investigation it exposed a technical file for each of the 57 self-produced exhibitions carried out in the period and a selection of the studies that accompanied them: the files are displayed chronologically according to the procedures used. The work concludes with the analysis of the objectives that were mainly all the programming: 1) Sala Parpalló as an integrated project; 2) Studies and exhibitions around the Valencian Cultural Imaginary; 3) Analysis of the postmodern crisis; …
A Guide to Perform 3D Histology of Biological Tissues with Fluorescence Microscopy
2023
The analysis of histological alterations in all types of tissue is of primary importance in pathology for highly accurate and robust diagnosis. Recent advances in tissue clearing and fluorescence microscopy made the study of the anatomy of biological tissue possible in three dimensions. The combination of these techniques with classical hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining has led to the birth of three-dimensional (3D) histology. Here, we present an overview of the state-of-the-art methods, highlighting the optimal combinations of different clearing methods and advanced fluorescence microscopy techniques for the investigation of all types of biological tissues. We employed fluorescence …
La Cappella Palatina di Palermo: Misura, Interpretazione, Rappresentazione
2012
Lo studio che segue è incentrato sull'analisi delle vicende costruttive della Cappella Palatina nel Palazzo Reale di Palermo, costruita per volontà di Ruggero II nella prima metà del XII secolo. La peculiarità della Cappella è quella di aver mantenuto pressoché inalterato i caratteri spaziali dell’interno attraverso i secoli; tale peculiarità ha fatto si che la Cappella sia stata oggetto di studi molto approfonditi condotti da storici dell’arte a partire dalla del XIX secolo fino ai nostri giorni. Lo studio intende porsi come contributo alla conoscenza della Cappella, alla interpretazione di alcune questioni rimaste irrisolte, come stimolo ausiliare per successivi studi, attraverso gli stru…
Sistemi informativi 3D per i BB.CC. e l'archeologia: il Castello di Maredolce a Palermo
2014
Il mondo della ricerca nel campo dei BB.CC. sta guardando con sempre maggior interesse all’uso di tecnologie informatiche integrate, che consentano di fornire e condividere in rete dati quantitativi e qualitativi, geometrici, posizionali, alfanumerici, relativi ai BB.CC., sfruttando l’interazione tra banche dati e modelli 3D. Tali modelli, dunque, oltre a fornire una ricostruzione virtuale del monumento con la possibilità di navigare ed analizzare l’oggetto in dettaglio, costituiscono lo strumento per accedere ad informazioni eterogenee (testi, immagini, sequenze video, ecc.) sui manufatti, raccolte ed organizzate in database relazionali interrogabili, al fine di una piena comprensione e co…
3D nanometric particle tracking over tunable axial ranges
The precise localization of nanometric objects in three dimensions is essential to identify functional diffusion mechanisms in complex systems at the cellular or molecular level. However, most optical methods can achieve high temporal resolution and high localization precision only in two dimensions or over a limited axial range. Here we develop a novel wide-field detection system based on an electrically tunable lens that can track multiple individual nanoscale emitters in three dimensions over a tunable axial range with nanometric localization precision. The optical principle of the technique is based on the simultaneous acquisition of two images with an extended depth of field while enco…
MOBILE MAPPING FOR CULTURAL HERITAGE: THE SURVEY OF THE COMPLEX OF ST. JOHN OF THE HERMITS IN PALERMO (ITALY)
2023
Abstract. During the 11th and 12th century, the Arab-Norman architectural style characterized the most beautiful and important Cultural Heritage buildings in Sicily, and especially in Palermo (Italy). The relevance of these monuments is highlighted by their inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites List in 2015. For many years, the University of Palermo has been studying and documenting several Arab-Norman cultural assets, and in particular, the complex of St. John of the Hermits in Palermo (Italy). A first detailed 3D survey of the main structures of this complex was carried out using a terrestrial laser scanner while the 3D survey of the entire complex was made using a Mobile Mapping S…
Bim and architectural heritage: Towards an operational methodology for the knowledge and the management of cultural heritage
2016
The study aims to answer the growing need for virtuously organize informational apparatuses related to Cultural Heritage. We propose a methodology that integrates multidisciplinary processes of interaction with information aimed at survey, documentation, management, knowledge and enhancement of historic artifacts. It is needed to review and update the procedure of instrumental data acquisition, standardization and structuring of the acquired data in a three-dimensional semantic model as well as the subsequent representability and accessibility of the model and the related database. If the use of Building Information Modeling has in recent years seen a consolidation in the procedures and the…
