Om å bære dødens tyngde – Fotografier og visuelle fortellestrategier i Gaute Heivolls roman Himmelarkivet
2012
Author's version of an article in the journal: Edda. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.idunn.no/ts/edda/2012/02/om_aa_baere_doedens_tyngde_-_fotografier_og_visuelle_fortelles Himmelarkivet (2008) by Gaute Heivoll is part of an international trend of fiction concerned with traumatic events from World War II reflecting on the question of how these events should be described and understood. One main narrative device in the work is the use of image-related elements, and the goal of this article is to interpret their significance and effect. On the one hand, the argument is that they work as documents confirming the authenticity of the narrative and, on the other, that these visua…
Temporal stability and representational distinctiveness: Key functions of orthographic working memory
2011
A primary goal of working memory research has been to understand the mechanisms that permit working memory systems to effectively maintain the identity and order of the elements held in memory for sufficient time as to allow for their selection and transfer to subsequent processing stages. Based on the performance of two individuals with acquired dysgraphia affecting orthographic working memory (WM; the graphemic buffer), we present evidence of two distinct and dissociable functions of orthographic WM. One function is responsible for maintaining the temporal stability of letters held in orthographic WM, while the other is responsible for maintaining their representational distinctiveness. T…
Le Curve di Apollonio. Innovazione nei processi risolutivi, il caso della parabola.
2012
This study is connected with the research directed on the solving problem of a graphic representation of geometric objects using the informatics language, particularly the graphic software CAD. The solution of these problems requires a reliable command of stereometry and descriptive geometry and it can extend remarkably the level of external geometric competences. The implementation of the means of ICT has brought a higher effectiveness of graphing mapping processes. The modification of informatics means with the goal to simplify applications of descriptive and projective geometry is also of a great didactical importance. In particular, we focus attention on the treatment of the locus "cone…
From detail to project: House Caiozzo-Facciola
2021
The analysis and understanding, through drawing, of Casa Cajozzo-Facciolà, designed by Pasquale Culotta and Giuseppe Leone, in 1979, on a cliff in Contrada Ogliastrillo in Cefalù, followed a pro- cess that is unlike the traditional process. From the consideration that the detail is thought of as a portion of a whole, which allows, through a close examination, to re-read the global system from which it was provisionally extracted, we proceeded with the analysis of the expected construction system, the balloon frame, and thanks to a close examination of the construction details of which there were sketches with explanatory notes, the proportions, spaces, volumes, surface treatment of the over…
Intentionality of the Design Through the Redesign: Albanese House by Leone and Culotta
2020
Albanian house was designed in 1982 and takes its name from the one who commissioned the project from the studio of Culotta and Leone. The achievements of the study were studied, focusing in particular on the various projects related to single-family houses. Given the technological characteristics of the project, an analysis of the international context was also necessary, in particular the suggestions of the shingle style cottages were studied. In addition, the construction technology underlying the project, or the balloon frame, typical of the US context, was also studied. The project shows great attention to the exhibition, and to the relationship between inside and outside. The whole pr…
