An Entropy-Driven Scenario for Future Design Education
2021
In a Domus article published in 1998, John Thackara claimed that design would lead by entropy in the future, and he won- dered how to avoid a similar dystopian scenario. As designers, we are aware of how wicked problems are really hard to face and how complexity has increased in these past decades: trans- disciplinary skills are therefore increasingly required. Further- more, we can only achieve incremental improvements to the situation, because a wicked problem typically has no definitive solution (Rittel, Webber 1973, in Erlhoff, 2008): a new mind- set is therefore required, one that is capable of overcoming our traditional one (Morin, 2015), in order to face and manage the complexity.

Incidentality on a continuum: A comparative conceptualization of incidental news consumption
2020
This article seeks to contribute to theorizing the dynamics of incidental news consumption. Through an analysis of 200 semi-structured interviews with people in Argentina, Finland, Israel, Japan, and the United States, we show that intentionality in news consumption can be viewed on a continuum, which goes from deliberately setting apart time to access the news on specific outlets to skimming through unsought-for news on social and broadcast media, with intermediate practices such as respondents setting up an environment where they are more or less likely to encounter news. Drawing on structuration theory, this article conceptualizes incidental news in the context of the wider media environ…
Vista e visione dell'architetto
2015
Il paper affronta il tema del'atto del vedere dell'architetto in chiave fenomenolgica ma anche affrontando l'intreccio tra cecità e vista a partire dalle riflessioni di Derrida. Il concetto di Design Thinking viene proposto, con riferimento al noto Visual Thinking di Rudolf Arnheim. Si può ipotizzare un modo di vedere specifico degli architetti nel quale immaginazione e visione di fondono e sovrappongono a partire dalla memoria. Lo schematismo di Kant, ripreso con riferimento all'arte e all'architettura, da Cesare Brandi costituisce la teoria-chiave per la quale visione e immaginazione possono essere concepite come risvolti del medesimo concetto. La cecità, intesa come luogo altro della vis…
La organización del trabajo por proyectos: La fábrica de la precariedad laboral
2019
The project-based organization, considered as a radical reorganization of work around one or more simultaneous projects, is nowadays widespread in large companies and public administrations. According to the managerial way of thinking, this system would be virtuous: by giving more autonomy to the employees in the act of production and by developing their skills through mobility and interdisciplinarity of work teams, it would be able to arouse their full commitment. This study confirms in some way how this opinion has been imposed, but at the expense of precarious working conditions, increasing the dedication of employees and silencing any form of criticism. The research is based on a review…
Experience design and writing for digital media. A scriptural theory of experience applied to instructional design and design pedagogy.
2020
Cet ouvrage pour l'HDR en sciences de l'information et de la communication propose une théorie de l'expérience des médias numériques pour l'aborder du point de vue de l'écriture numérique. Tandis que la sociologie des usages analyse la partie visible des interactions numériques sans intervenir sur elles, dans une perspective objectiviste, les études sur l'expérience, qui forment un champ récent dans les SHS, s'intéressent d'une part à la manière dont l'expérience des technologies numériques écrit en nous son histoire, tandis que nous laissons dans les machines des traces qui constituent à son leur une inscription, les deux types d'écriture étant indissociables. D'autre part, les études sur …
