Digital Modernism Heritage Lexicon
The book investigates the theme of Modernism (1920-1960 and its epigones) as an integral part of tangible and intangible cultural heritage which contains the result of a whole range of disciplines whose aim is to identify, document and preserve the memory of the past and the value of the future. Including several chapters, it contains research results relating to cultural heritage, more specifically Modernism, and current digital technologies. This makes it possible to record and evaluate the changes that both undergo: the first one, from a material point of view, the second one from the research point of view, which integrates the traditional approach with an innovative one. The purpose of ...
Digital Wood Design
This book explores various digital representation strategies that could change the future of wooden architectures by blending tradition and innovation. Composed of 61 chapters, written by 153 authors hailing from 5 continents, 24 countries and 69 research centers, it addresses advanced digital modeling, with a particular focus on solutions involving generative models and dynamic value, inherent to the relation between knowing how to draw and how to build. Thanks to the potential of computing, areas like parametric design and digital manufacturing are opening exciting new avenues for the future of construction. The book’s chapters are divided into five sections that connect digital wood design to integrated approaches and generative design; to model synthesis and morphological comprehension; to lessons learned from nature and material explorations; to constructive wisdom and implementation-related challenges; and to parametric transfigurations and morphological optimizations.
Graphical Heritage
This book presents the proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Graphic Design in Architecture, EGA 2020, focusing on heritage – including architectural and graphic heritage as well as the graphics of heritage. This first volume gathers selected contributions covering theories, and new technologies and findings to help shed light on current questions related to heritage. It features original documentation studies on historical archives, 3D and solid representation of architectural objects, as well as virtual graphic representation and applications of augmented reality, all documenting and/or reconstructing the present, past and future of architectural objects. As such, this book offers extensive and timely information to architectural and graphic designers, urban designers and engineers, and industrial designers and historians.
Handbook of Research on Emerging Technologies for Architectural and Archaeological Heritage
Cultural heritage is a vital, multifaceted component of modern society. To better protect and promote the integrity of a culture, certain technologies have become essential tools. The Handbook of Research on Emerging Technologies for Architectural and Archaeological Heritage is an authoritative reference source for the latest scholarly research on the use of technological assistance for the preservation of architecture and archaeology in a global context. Focusing on various surveying technologies for the study, analysis, and protection of historical buildings, this book is ideally designed for professionals, researchers, upper-level students, and practitioners.
Tenebra luminosissima
Della chiesa di Sant’Ivo alla Sapienza si è detto molto: si è sottolineata soprattutto la sua bizzarria, che i critici hanno ricondotto all’essenza del Barocco, a volte trascurando eventuali nessi che legano tra loro gli elementi caratteristici di questo edificio. Proprio questa è l’ambizione del lavoro di Ribichini: non accettare la bizzarra ineffabilità di Sant’Ivo, ma indagarne le forme fino a identificarne le ispirazioni primigenie e i legami reciproci. Così, procedendo per abduzione, Ribichini è arrivato a formulare una tesi: Sant’Ivo rappresenta un poema in pietra dedicato alla Sapienza, dove Borromini avrebbe creato una forma nel binomio fede/ragione, rappresentando ar...
Sound Work
The practices and perception of music creation have evolved with the cultural, social and technological contexts of music and musicians. But musical authorship, in its many technical and aesthetic modes, remains an important component of music culture. Musicians are increasingly called on to share their experience in writing. However, cultural imperatives to account for composition as knowledge production and to make claims for its uniqueness inhibit the development of discourse in both expert and public spheres. Internet pioneer Philip Agre observed a discourse deficit in artificial intelligence research and proposed a critical technical practice, a single disciplinary field with “one foo...
Recondite armonie a Ronchamp
Il testo sviluppa il suo lavoro lungo un percorso nel quale viene disvelata l'intima essenza dello spazio architettonico della chiesa di Ronchamp progettata da Le Corbusier e l'attenzione posta dal progettista verso le sonorità e l'ascolto. Il primo capitolo è dedicato all'analisi dei luoghi, alla descrizione della nuova costruzione, mettendole anche in relazione con il pensiero di Le Corbusier, infine nell'ultima parte vengono analizzate alcune delle più importanti analisi condotte dai maggiori critici del mondo. Nella prima parte del secondo capitolo viene indagato l'altare con tutte le sue implicazioni iconografiche e simboliche, alla luce della dottrina cattolica e delle intenzionalit...
