Intersecciones y tensiones patrimoniales entre arte, tecnología y cultura popular en las Fallas de València
2022
En este artículo abordamos algunas experiencias que, por sus características especiales, alternan entre el arte popular, el arte contemporáneo y la tecnología; todas ellas están vinculadas al fenómeno cultural de las Fallas de València. Analizamos algunos casos concretos de fallas de carácter experimental e innovador y la manera en la que la tecnología funciona como aliada para permitir nuevas estéticas frente a la renovación de determinadas tradiciones culturales y patrimoniales como las Fallas de València. Entre esos casos se destaca el de la Falla Inmaterial, así como algunos otros ejemplos donde el uso de la tecnología genera polémicas sociales y políticas que permiten avanzar en las ru…

Education for democratic citizenship in a digital culture
2011
Asumiendo la importancia de las nuevas tecnologías en las aulas, especialmente en las actuales sociedades de la información y la comunicación, y siguiendo las recomendaciones de la Unión Europea a favor de la alfabetización mediática, el presente trabajo reflexiona acerca de la necesidad de educar no solo en los usos técnicos y eficientes de las tecnologías comunicativas, sino también en el uso responsable y cívico de las mismas, favoreciendo así los procesos participativos y deliberativos que son el sustento de una democracia viva. El sueño griego de la «isegoría», del igual derecho de todos al uso de la palabra, puede hacerse realidad en la cultura digital, si bien es cierto que un uso hi…
Co-educar la mirada contra los estereotipos de género en TV
2008
TV serials analyzed in this paper show a representation of stereotyped gender. These cultural products, despite its apparent modernity, reproduce inequalities in the representation of the feminine and masculine through gender stereotypes which are sexist models for the construction of gender identity among its young viewers. Besides, a gender and co-education approach for an audiovisual alphabetization should be a good way against inequality. Se analizan en este trabajo un conjunto de series de televisión que plantean una representación estereotípica de los géneros. Pese a su aparente modernidad, múltiples productos culturales-televisivos siguen siendo portadores de discursos que reproducen…
Between improvisation and inevitability: former Latvian officials’ memoirs of the Soviet era
2016
ABSTRACTThis article deals with the autobiographies of former Soviet officials that have been published in Latvia since the 1990s. In particular, it focuses on three interrelated layers of biographical narrative: construction of social identity, strategies for avoiding the stigmatization of collaboration, and comparisons between the Soviet and post-Soviet experience. The article contends that former officials in their memoirs use a pragmatic representation of the Soviet past as the major locus of their positive identity. Through this genuine representation of the past, autobiographers emphasize virtues that might be accepted by a post-Soviet neoliberal society.
Dinámicas de la forma audiovisual. Puesta en forma y representación subjetiva en el cine argentino del nuevo siglo: 'Papá Iván', 'Encontrando a Vícto…
2014
Resumen : Tomando al cine como territorio audiovisual y a la imagen como ambito de problematizacion se trataria de reconocer, describir e interpretar las estrategias formales que disenan ciertas “ficciones politicas de lo real”. Dentro de las narrativas audiovisuales del nuevo milenio, agrupadas en torno a la construccion de una politicidad, se busca caracterizar sus “dinamicas mnemicas”, de interrogar el entramado de elecciones esteticas que subyace en la textura de las imagenes. A partir del conjunto de determinaciones que las imagenes proponen ?que identidad visual o poetica visual sobreviene del paisaje formal que nos entregan? ?Que formas adopta el pasado? ?De que manera el relato c…
The Diapause Lipidomes of Three Closely Related Beetle Species Reveal Mechanisms for Tolerating Energetic and Cold Stress in High-Latitude Seasonal E…
2020
During winter insects face energetic stress driven by lack of food, and thermal stress due to sub-optimal and even lethal temperatures. To survive, most insects living in seasonal environments such as high latitudes, enter diapause, a deep resting stage characterized by a cessation of development, metabolic suppression and increased stress tolerance. The current study explores physiological adaptations related to diapause in three beetle species at high latitudes in Europe. From an ecological perspective, the comparison is interesting since one species (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) is an invasive pest that has recently expanded its range into northern Europe, where a retardation in range expa…
Development and validation of two PCR tests for the detection of and differentiation between Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma marginale
2012
Anaplasma ovis and Anaplasma marginale are tick-transmitted bacteria that cause anaplasmosis in domestic and wild animals. Recent results show that some domestic and wild animals and ticks are susceptible to both A. ovis and A. marginale, thus supporting the need to differentiate between these species in hosts and ticks diagnosed with Anaplasma infection. However, although anaplasmosis is one of the most common diseases of grazing animals worldwide, rapid and effective tests are not available for the detection of and discrimination between these 2 Anaplasma species. The objective of this research was to develop an easy and reliable method to identify and discriminate between the closely rel…
Coordinated Interpersonal Behaviour in Collective Dance Improvisation: The Aesthetics of Kinaesthetic Togetherness
2018
International audience; Collective dance improvisation (e.g., traditional and social dancing, contact improvisation) is a participatory, relational and embodied art form which eschews standard concepts in aesthetics. We present our ongoing research into the mechanisms underlying the lived experience of "togetherness" associated with such practices. Togetherness in collective dance improvisation is kinaesthetic (based on movement and its perception), and so can be simultaneously addressed from the perspective of the performers and the spectators, and be measured. We utilise these multiple levels of description: the first-person, phenomenological level of personal experiences, the third-perso…
