Urban Ecology
Under the confluence of nomadic economics, technologies, and industries--commonly known as "suburban sprawl"--Detroit, segregated and isolated, constitutes one of the great monuments to decay by a modernist city. It is perhaps the clearest and earliest example of the effects of a globalized economy and labor market. "Urban Ecology contains projects generated by the International Center for Urban Ecology (iCUE), a nomadic laboratory for future cities. The laboratory investigation promotes discourse on the decomposition and possible reconstitution of a "moving city." iCUE takes anti-architectural and non-urban perspectives, using multi-disciplinary processes and integrated collaboration with local communities and activists. "Urban Ecology brings together essays on Detroit and many other cities in crisis around the world.

Nouveau réalisme
This book provides an up-to-date introduction to the study of generics and pursues the enterprise of the influential Generic Book edited by Gregory Carlson and Jeffry Pelletier, which was published in 1995. Genericity is a key notion in the study of human cognition as it reveals our capacity to organize our perceived reality into classes and to describe regularities. The generic can be expressed at the level of a word or phrase (ie the potato in The Irish economy became dependent upon the potato) or an entire sentence (eg in John smokes a cigar after dinner, the generic aspect is a property of the expression, rather than any single word or phrase within it). This book gathers new work from s...
Mémoires 1967 - 2007
Il Centro sperimentale per l'arte contemporanea Sala 1, fondato da Tito Amodei nel 1967 a Roma nel complesso architettonico della Scala Santa, ripercorre i propri quaranta anni di vita attraverso le testimonianze dei protagonisti della vita culturale dello spazio. Una storia corale, polifonica, frutto d'intrecci di singole voci, veicoli di pensieri e di esperienze individuali che incontrandosi hanno delineato traiettorie e fughe, determinando, nel loro interagire per inclusione ed esclusione, il senso del proprio operato. La diacronia serrata dei singoli eventi di tanto in tanto rallenta il proprio ritmo per accogliere approfondimenti e racconti analitici, dei veri e propri zoom narrativi, nel tentativo di fornire ulteriori chiavi di lettura e di comprensione di un operare - tanto denso, quanto effimero - quale quello che caratterizza la nostra arte contemporanea. Con una appassionata prefazione di Toni Maraini.
