Educación artística : revista de investigación
2020
Resumen: Proponemos una investigacion fundamentada en los conceptos de mirada y de lugar para aplicar estos al mundo-imagen de Internet. Un entorno digital, el ciberespacio, donde las imagenes-archivos comprenden un nuevo estatus y regimen visual: fuertemente mediatizado, y que reta a desarrollar posiciones criticas y creativas que necesitamos. Esta investigacion teorica ha venido aplicandose en practicas artisticas que conjugan la videocreacion y las imagenes de otros lugares del mundo, azarosamente halladas, y capturadas de la aplicacion Street View del tecnologico Google . Con una metodologia activa de aprendizaje basado en proyecto, recurrimos a profundizar en un concepto de mirada resp…
Intermedialità come Gesamtkunstwerk critico. Appunti sul visuale nella scrittura di W.G. Sebald
2018
Nell’universo assai articolato e fittamente popolato dei visual studies contemporanei , una rubrica di dimensioni ragguardevoli è senz’altro costituita dagli studi dedicati a quei fenomeni che possono essere classificati sotto la categoria degli iconotesti o dei foto-testi, e dall’enumerazione e ricognizione della loro complessa tipologia e genealogia teorica. Il contributo studia la rilevanza della categoria in un testo di W.G. Sebald.
Acute endothelial failure after cosmetic iris implants (NewIris®)
2011
We report a case of an acute endothelial failure after the implantation of a new cosmetic, colored, artificial iris diaphragm implant called NewIris(®). A 21-year-old woman came to us complaining of progressive loss of vision and pain after NewIris lenses had been implanted. Decreased visual acuity, corneal edema, and increased intraocular pressure in both eyes appeared only 3 weeks after the surgery. The lenses were removed as soon as possible but had already severely affected the endothelial cell count. NewIris implants are an alternative to cosmetic contact lenses, but they are not as safe as other phakic anterior chamber intraocular lenses, nor are they a good option for the patient.

In a Cultural Studies perspective, this essay proposes an intertextual reading of sea-change and representations of the Moor in literature, folklore, visual and decorative arts, and fashion theory studies, as interpreted by William Shakespeare, the artist duo Invernomuto, and fashion designers Dolce & Gabbana.
Street art as a transforming agent of public space in Arab World. Case study of two artistic groups in Tunisia.
2023
The public space in the Arab World has historically been controlled and seized by political authorities. This appropriation has created a deep rift between citizens and public places. Nevertheless, since the beginning of the Arab revolutions, new youth art forms have emerged liberating the arts from traditional formalism and these have been transferred to open spaces making them accessible to the people. This research seeks to explore the youth street art that emerged during the Tunisian revolution, not only as an innovative artistic trend, but also as a social movement that claims a new kind of citizenship. It aims to analyze the philosophical and aesthetic purposes of street art and its r…
Post-fotografia etnografica
2021
È evidente come la nostra società tecnologica sia legata senza alcun dubbio alla diffusione delle immagini. Autori come Gottfried Boehm, John Mitchell, Hans Belting hanno indagato la natura dell'immagine ponendo le basi, negli anni Novanta, per l'idea di un pictorial turn, di una cultura totalmente dominata dalle immagini che è diventata adesso una possibilità tecnica reale su scala globale. Un nuovo statuto dell'immagine che si usa raccogliere sotto l'etichetta di iconic turner inserito nel più vasto campo visual culture studies. L'uso del termine cultura accanto a quello di visuale è indicativo dell'ampiezza del campo d'indagine che visual culture studies si prefiggono di ricercare: essi …
La capilla de la Virgen de Campanar en Valencia: tradición popular erigida en erudita retórica visual
2018
This chapel forms part of the parochial church of Campanar, which belongs to the municipality of Valencia. The Virgen de Campanar (Virgin of Campanar) is an image executed in alabaster, discovered on the subfloor of the church of this place on February 19th, 1596, by some construction workers who were undertaking some remodeling at that time. From that moment forward it began to be worshipped by the masses as a miraculous image. Among its alleged properties we find the mysterious fact that powder from its plaster had miraculous effects: it was taken dissolved in water to cure the sick or to assure a healthy birth for pregnant women, and it even calmed storms at sea if it was thrown into the…

Social media monitoring: aims, methods, and challenges for international companies
2014
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to clarify the aims, monitoring methods and challenges of social media monitoring from the perspective of international companies.

Findings – International companies need real-time monitoring software, expertise and dynamic visualization to facilitate early detection and prognoses supporting strategy making. This is a costly affair, prompting questions about return on investment. A recent trend in the research literature concerns the development of models describing how issues s…
