Algorithms and Organizing
2022
Abstract Algorithms are a ubiquitous part of organizations as they enable, guide, and restrict organizing at the level of everyday interactions. This essay focuses on algorithms and organizing by reviewing the literature on algorithms in organizations, examining the viewpoint of relationality and relational agency on algorithms and organizing, exploring the properties of algorithms, and concluding what these mean from an organizational communication viewpoint. Algorithms need data to be collected. The data are always biased, and algorithms exclude everything that is not in their code. They define what is seen as important. Their operating principles are opaque, and they are political due to…

Materiality and atmosphere. Two American beat artists painting Europe
2019
The article discusses how European painting heavily influenced two American Beat painters in the post war years. Post-war American painting was often concerned with breaking away from traditional iconography and style, but Jay DeFeo and Joan Brown chose to engage with European traditional painting. Both artists travelled to Europe early in their careers and both declare an intense interest in European painters, paintings, and architecture. In Brown’s case particularly the works of Goya, Velazquez, and Rembrandt become scrutinized and remodeled in her pasty abstract style. De Feo, on her hand, states a particular interest in how the European cities’ distinct colors, lights and textures inspi…
Developing business advantages from the technological possibilities of enterprise information systems

Published version of an article in the journal: International journal of information systems and project management. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.12821/ijispm020203 Open Access Organizations are increasingly implementing Enterprise Information Systems (EIS), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems in particular. Despite the notable studies on the advantages of an EIS, many organizations are not satisfied with the benefits or advantages gained. At the same time, it is assumed that such systems with increasing innovations and technological enhancements would generate abundant business advantages, if organizations exploited these opportunities.

The Shape of Energy. Fuels and Modernity in the Italian Industrial Imagery of the 1950s
2022
Il saggio affronta la peculiare materialità rinvenibile in numerosi filmati industriali prodotti in Italia durante gli anni ’50, prima e durante la fase iniziale del miracolo economico. L’analisi si concentra in particolare su metano e petrolio, due sostanze che giocano un ruolo decisivo nei discorsi sociali del tempo, per esplorare l’importanza conferita ai materiali come punto fondamentale che definisce l’originalità di questi filmati. L’obiettivo è far emergere alcuni aspetti cruciali del processo di modernizzazione italiano ed esplorare nuovi percorsi interpretativi nel campo ancora poco esplorato dei tecno-film, confrontandoli con il più ampio panorama artistico e culturale del periodo…
