Parole come molecole: scienza e letteratura in Primo Levi
2017
Il profilo di Primo Levi è stato a lungo quello di chimico e di scrittore per caso e la sua fortuna editoriale, incerta all'inizio, lo dimostra. Oggi non si esita a considerarlo uno tra i più grandi scrittori morali del Novecento per la qualità letteraria del suo stile e per le questioni morali che affronta, l'uomo di fronte al male, le conseguenze dello sviluppo tecnologico, la scelta tra il bene e il male. Nella sua produzione letteraria si contano racconti, romanzi-saggi, poesie, reportages che sono l'esito di una teoria etica sulla funzione e la natura della scrittura letteraria. Il sistema periodico, in questo senso, è una silloge esemplare della maniera di comporre e di inventare stor…
A fully manipulable damped driven harmonic oscillator using optical levitation
2020
We implement an experimental system based on optical levitation of a silicone oil droplet to demonstrate a damped driven harmonic oscillator. The apparatus allows us to control all the parameters present in the differential equation that theoretically describes such motion. The damping coefficient and driving force can be manipulated in situ by changing the pressure in the apparatus and by applying a variable electric field. We present two different experimental procedures. First, a transition from the overdamped to underdamped regimes is demonstrated by gradually lowering the air pressure. The characteristic resonance associated with an underdamped driven harmonic oscillator is observed by…
The Impact of Internet and Social Media Use on Well-Being
2021
The present research examines the longitudinal average impact of frequency of use of Internet and social networking sites (SNS) on subjective well-being of adolescents in Germany. Based on five-wave panel data that cover a period of nine years, we disentangle between-person and within-person effects of media use on depressive symptomatology and life satisfaction as indicators of subjective well-being. Additionally, we control for confounders such as TV use, self-esteem, and satisfaction with friends. We found that frequency of Internet use in general and use of SNS in particular is not substantially related subjective well-being. The explanatory power of general Internet use or SNS use to p…

PRIMO LEVI E LA QUESTIONE DELL’ANIMALITÀ
2020
The approach of man and animal in Levi’s work can lead to some simplifications. We could think of a naturalization operation: man is one of many animals. Or, on the contrary, we could think of a culturalization: the animal is a social being. In reality, the ontological principle on which Levi’s thinking and writing are based is that of analogy. Assuming the hypothesis of the anthropologist Philippe Descola, this essay proposes an analogical reading of Levi. Focusing on a precise story, Censura in Bitinia, I will try to discuss this interpretative hypothesis.

2015
In British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors (BASCA) and others v Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, the High Court of Justice in matter of private copy exception provides the twofold prime opportunity to shed light on the state of the art of copyright in the UK and to flesh out the idea of 'legal hysteresis’. I support the reintroduction of the private copy exception, possibly in a less narrow fashion, and I explain the reasons why I am confident that my expectations will be fulfilled.
“Congratulations, you’re on TV!”: Middle-space performances of live tweeters during the FIFA World Cup
2018
Social television has transformed the traditional role of the television viewers by providing ‘ordinary people’ access to the public stage. This article describes how public access to television affected the dialogues of Finnish tweeters on Twitter during the massive media event of the FIFA World Cup. Through the lens of digital conversation analysis, the study shows how the media publicity of tweets changed the direction of the interaction between tweeters and transformed their roles vis-à-vis the television show, making one of them into a ‘media flasher’ and the others viewers of his or her performance. The publicity was constructed as important through noticings, congratulations, and com…
