XRF analysis to identify historical photographic processes: The case of some Interguglielmi Jr.’s images from the Palermo Municipal Archive
2017
Abstract In the early period, even though professional photographers worked with similar techniques and products, their artistic and commercial aims determined different choices and led them to follow different, often personal, recipes. For this reason, identification of the techniques through date and name of the photographer or through some visual features like colour, tonality and surface of the image layer, often needs further investigation to be proved. Chemical characterization, carried out in a non or micro destructive way, can be crucial to provide useful information about the original composition, degradation process, realization technique, in obtaining an indirect dating of the ph…
Associations of nutrition and body composition with cardiovascular disease risk factors in soldiers during a 6-month deployment
2020
Objectives This observational follow-up study investigated the associations of nutrition and body composition with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, including pro-inflammatory biomarkers, in soldiers during a 6-month deployment. Material and Methods Thirty-five male soldiers were assessed at months 0, 3 and 6, and their parameters, i.e., M±SD, were as follows: age 30.0±8.7 years, height 179±6 cm, and BMI 24.2±2.5 kg/m 2 . Three-day food diaries were used for monitoring macronutrient intake. Body composition was estimated using bioimpedance. Fasting blood samples for lipids and pro-inflammatory biomarkers were collected, and blood pressure measurements were performed. Results Carboh…
A new method for the in situ determination of phospholipids after thin-layer separation
1973
Abstract A very sensitive method has been devised for the in situ determination of phospholipids after thin-layer chromatographic separation, which enabled us to investigate the phospholipid content of erythrocytes and ATPase preparations. The phospholipid compositions of the ATPase preparations and of the erythrocytes are different, and the relative phospholipid compositions of the Na,K-ATPase preparations are also different, which indicates that Na,K- and Ca-ATPase seem to be different with regard to their phospholipid composition. An increase in temperature during the preparation procedure yields a Ca-ATPase preparation (II), which exhibits different kinetic properties and a different ph…
La hermenéutica cultural como herramienta estratégica de la investigación para el diseño
2017
Historicamente, la hermeneutica ha permitido conocer formas de apropiacion de mundos de vida y realidades diversas, hoy su uso se ha ampliado hacia areas relacionadas con el lenguaje y la cultura. La hermeneutica permite al disenador desde la investigacion estudiar no solo el lenguaje que puede y debe generar, sino a traves de ciertas estrategias y dispositivos de esta disciplina, conocer de manera mas profunda al consumidor o cliente al que se le realiza el diseno, con el objeto de que el objeto disenado establezca un vinculo identitario entre este objeto con su sujeto.
Animales, teorías feministas posmodernas y prácticas artísticas.
2019
Este artículo pretende mostrar cómo algunas teorías feministas posmodernas como el ecofeminismo y el posthumanismo, de autoras como Françoise d'Eaubonne, Alicia Puleo, Donna Haraway o Rosi Baridotti han contribuido a la crítica contra las prácticas androcéntricas basadas en el dominio sistémico de devastación y explotación del otro/a/os, perpetuando la jerarquía y autoridad del hombre. Frente a ello estas autoras han propuesto un nuevo modelo de relación orgánica y de convivencia entre cultura y naturaleza, capaz de superar los modelos binarios, inspirado en el respeto a la diversidad de sexos y especies.Estos principios se hayan, así mismo, en las prácticas artísticas de algunas autoras c…

European Lifelong Guidance Policy Network representatives’ conceptions of the role of information and communication technologies related to national …
2015
This article reports findings from a phenomenographic investigation into European Lifelong Guidance Policy Network representatives’ conceptions of the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) related to national lifelong guidance policies. The role of ICT in relation to national lifelong guidance policies was conceived as (1) unexploited, (2) emerging, (3) acknowledged but fragmented, and (4) strategic. The hierarchical structure of the findings may serve as a tool to enable policy makers and other stakeholders to deepen their understanding of critical aspects that may have an important role in relation to further developments and the successful implementation of existing an…
El proyecto artístico Mujeres Maestras en Perú, Colombia y Ecuador
2017
[EN] Mujeres Maestras (Women Teacher Project) is a tribute to the teachers who bring Art Education to the ArtseBased Research. We propose this inquiry from the involving teachers and students of educational centers. Through this work(in(progress(we manage the future location of exhibitions in museums and art the world. This year the exhibition visits Medellín (Colombia) and Lima (Peru). The next year planned to exhibit in Cuenca (Ecuador). Each exhibition of Mujeres Maestras consists of 21 works made exclusively for the museum or art center in which the show is organized. The graphics and the poetics of the gestures are part homage that the author gives to these women who represent a very i…
Diseño gráfico para formar al profesorado de primaria
2021
Educar en diseño es probablemente la base para una predisposición social hacia la creatividad y la innovación. Presentamos los resultados de una investigación desarrollada en la práctica universitaria, formulada metodológicamente como estudio de caso. Incorporamos la práctica del diseño gráfico al currículum formativo de Maestro/a en Educación Primaria. Si queremos que la ciudadanía aprecie el diseño, conviene preparar al profesorado. Para lograr este acercamiento al diseño gráfico planteamos un taller en el que cada participante elabora su propio exlibris. Los resultados positivos nos animan a continuar con este tipo de iniciativas que aglutinan diseño, patrimonio, identidad e inclusión. E…
Análisis del repertorio musical en los manuales escolares
2021
Una de las concreciones de la pedagogía crítica en la educación musical es la utilización de un repertorio que incorpore las preferencias del alumnado. En este estudio se aborda la presencia de dicho repertorio en los manuales escolares más utilizados en la actualidad. Para ello, se ha accedido a 15 libros de texto, analizando 985 piezas distintas. Las variables empleadas han sido el período histórico o género musical, el estilo dentro del repertorio de la música popular urbana, la antigüedad del autor y la tipología de propuesta didáctica asociada. Los resultados indican que la música popular urbana tiene una escasa presencia en los manuales (8.20%) y no coincide con las preferencias de lo…
