Thresholds 42: « Human » prompts us to consider the past and present changing notion of ‘the human’ with regards to its physical, virtual, and psychological habitat.
 In the last decade innovations within cognitive imaging, computer interfaces, communication technologies, surrogate natures, sensory mediators, and global tracking have reshaped our understanding of the Self. This shift can be seen, on one hand, as a revolution of sensibilities while, on the other hand, still pushing towards an enlightenment-based, rationalist perspective of the human as a neurobiological mechanism. No matter which way this ‘human’ is being reshaped, does it not also reshape ‘the humanities’ as well as our understanding of . . . → En lire plus

“Le jeu savant”. Light and Darkness in XX Century Architecture Publication and Conference
CALL FOR PAPERS – English Version [Testo in italiano in fondo]
 “L’architecture est le jeu savant, correct et magnifique des volumes sous la lumière.”
With this well-known statement of 1923, Le Corbusier reaffirmed the role of light as the revealer of architecture. This was nothing new, of course, and yet in the context of a re-founding of the discipline in a modernist key, these words register some changes in attitude, such as the increasing attention to the orientation and the exposure of buildings.

Popularizing Architecture
Historians of German and Central European Art Session CAA 2014 Annual Conference
Chair: Wallis Miller, University of Kentucky
 Popularizing Architecture will focus on the dissemination and circulation of new ideas in architecture to non-professional audiences in Germany and Central Europe since the late nineteenth century, when publications that included architecture began to emerge in large numbers. While most of these publications served professional audiences, non-professionals also began to form important audiences for architecture, as they did for other cultural pursuits. Over time, architectural exhibitions, film, radio, television, and the Internet joined newspaper and magazine articles to form a complex media landscape that continues to address a wide . . . → En lire plus

East-Central European Criticism After the Fall of Communism: Cinema, Theatre, Visual Arts, Literature.
 After the fall of Communism in East-Central Europe, the newly gained liberty of expression has generated both a creative euphoria and a liberalization of critical interpretation. Since everything had to be rebuilt in keeping with the democratic principles after forty years of totalitarianism, criticism – in all fields, from visual arts to literature or cinema – has remained, at least in the 1990s, a sort of old acquaintance somehow useless for the making of the new society. Only after the year 2000, when the economical, social and political transition became relatively stable for the majority of the countries . . . → En lire plus

 Benjamin, Barthes, and Fashion
Historian, philosopher and literary critic Walter Benjamin wrote on fashion’s relationship to modernity, commodity fetishism, history, and memory. In his unfinished Arcades Project, the notes for a large section on Fashion reveal Benjamin’s desire to read the medium of dress culturally, materially, historically, and through his own brand of Marxist analysis.
Roland Barthes developed a semiotic system for interpreting the discourse of fashion. Barthes’The Fashion System, the seminal work on fashion and semiotics, suggests fashion can be understood as a language composed of codes, signs, and significations.
Both Barthes and Benjamin wrote on fashion’s . . . → En lire plus

 Qu’elle célèbre un événement politique ou religieux, la fête constitue un moment clef de la vie publique dans la société par et pour laquelle elle est produite. Fusionnant toutes les formes d’expression artistique afin de créer une expérience multi-sensorielle et de contribuer à la définition d’un espace-temps singulier, le spectacle constitue en effet un lieu privilégié pour appréhender la culture dont il émane et dont il met en exergue, voire parfois forge et transforme, les représentations et les imaginaires.

 Flows (Un)bound: Fluid Materials in Artistic and Scientific Practices
Materials, and fluid materials in particular, exert a significant influence on the formation of those artistic and scientific practices within which they are employed and explored. They possess a certain agency that very often thwarts and escapes the original designs and intended goals of researchers and artists. As a result, they have great bearing on our modes of thinking and our imagination. Thus, fluid materials possess the capacity to shape knowledge in a substantial way. Or do they? And if they . . . → En lire plus
