50 ans de psychologie de la musique
2011
International audience; Il y a cinquante ans paraissait La perception de la musique, ouvrage majeur par lequel Robert Francès instituait une forme novatrice d’approche du fait musical. Son style, sa cohérence scientifique, joints à une assise culturelle et à des intuitions exceptionnelles, lui confèrent une place d’autorité inégalée. Cette oeuvre vaut toujours à Robert Francès un important capital de sympathie et de respect souvent résumé par le titre de « père de la psychologie de la musique française ». L’héritage de La perception de la musiquese doit d’être pensé, débattu et analysé, surtout lorsque cinquante années de recul nous le permettent. C’est là tout le projet de ce recueil. Il r…
Pamięć i tożsamość w konstruowaniu narracji jednostki oraz wspólnoty
2020
In the article, I present two currently co-functioning diagnoses of Polish modernity. One is separatist, emphasizing the division, without hope of consent – a vision of two conflicted tribes, differing in their attitude to the past and history. The second vision assumes the possibility of communication, pointing to the relational character of the current conflict, which is based on the need for recognition. Remembrance is not a dividing instrument here, but a common good and value, and the chance for communication is the relationship of recognition. W artykule przedstawię dwie funkcjonujące dzisiaj obok siebie diagnozy polskiej współczesności. Jedna to separatystyczna, podkreślająca rozłam,…
LA CONVENANCE DE L’ORNEMENT : UNE QUESTION ÉTHIQUE ?
2019
Nell'era contemporanea, in cui gli architetti sono spesso alla ricerca di una bellezza spettacolare, la questione dell'ornamento trova un'importante attualità nel dibattito filosofico e architettonico. La domanda è se l'ornamento non abbia una dimensione etica. Per rispondere, studierò qui tre momenti storici decisivi di questo dibattito: la teoria dell'armonia di Alberti, l'approccio della scuola di Chicago alle relazioni di forma e funzione (LH Sullivan e J. Root) e la critica dell'ornamento in A. Loos. Pur appartenendo a diversi orizzonti culturali, queste teorie possono far luce sul dibattito contemporaneo svelando la dimensione etica e non solo quella estetica dell'ornamento. In contem…

Immersive gaming as journalism
2021
This chapter discusses immersion and how it may be applied to journalism. It begins by unraveling the concept of immersion itself as a reminder that it is not only connected to virtual reality or augmented reality technologies, but rather that it is a multifaceted concept that may be understood in many ways. The chapter turns specifically to the theorizing done in the context of digital games research, where immersion and some related concepts have been explored in detail over the last decades. This theorizing helps us see how immersion can be understood and in what way the concept may be problematic. The chapter maps out some of the historical precedents for immersion, discusses alternativ…
Il bisogno di fotografare. La fotografia nell’epoca delle immagini in digitale
2019
La proliferazione e l’ubiquità delle immagini pongono in maniera pressante la questione del loro senso e del tipo di esperienze cui danno luogo. Tuttavia la loro quantità, certamente eccessiva, non placa il bisogno che abbiamo di produrle, di condividerle e di sfruttare sino in fondo la loro capacità di rendere conto della contemporaneità. La fotografia è certamente una delle forme mediali che più ha contribuito alla costituzione di un ecosistema digitale. Ciò che è in gioco non è infatti semplicemente la natura delle immagini fotografiche ma più in generale la ristrutturazione del reale attraverso la mediazione del digitale. Il volume propone un’estetica della fotografia a partire delle pi…
Tappeleva rapuhirviö : kauhun estetiikka lastenkulttuurissa
2016
Horror in picture books aimed at children appears in many forms and may be interpreted in multiple ways. It may include ghosts and monsters, nightmares and existential fears, or, violence and content labelled as “difficult”. These elements may be portrayed and interpreted as intellectually challenging and up- lifting, as cute, normal and ”not really frightening”, or as something violent and harmful or possibly empowering. In other words, cultural horror and the ways in which we discuss or use it may aim to shock, to reassure, or to entertain. The chosen way of meaning making depends on and reflects the social positioning and performative aims of the producer or interpreter. In this study, t…
