2010rif. 215301Paris: Onestar press 2010. Brossura wrappers. Perfetto Mint. Libro d'artista completamente illustrato con fotografie in b&n. Cm 225x14. pp. 150 non numerate. Perfetto Mint. Edizione originale di 250 esemplari numerati Original edition of 250 numbered copies. Il cartellonista scende le scale della stazione della metropolitana Porte d'Erewhon si avvicina a un grande cartellone riempito con un poster blu intenso e inizia a incollare l'immagine di un'auto generica situata in un'anonima strada parigina. "Henri Bergson che non amava molto il cinema scrisse in L'evoluzione creatrice che per avere un'autentica intuizione della durata bisognava sperimentarla e prese l'esempio dello zucchero in un bicchiere d'acqua. La lezione sembrava chiara: "Devo aspettare che lo zucchero si sciolga"; è nell'esperienza della visione e dell'attesa quando la mia durata si fonde con quella del mondo che emerge l'intuizione di una realtà in movimento. Ma come si impara ad aspettare in un mondo moderno che sembra essere un flusso costante di immagini continue ma che non cessa mai di estrarre immagini ferme immagini ossessive e poi proietta queste immagini fisse in quello che sembra essere un ciclo perpetuo 'Sugar Water' può in un certo senso essere visto come una vasta metafora dei giorni successivi all'11 settembre vissuti come una sfida all'editto di Bergson: le stesse immagini fisse quasi come pubblicità che si susseguono costantemente nel cuore stesso della nostra vita quotidiana fino a produrre un perfetto equivoco: aspettiamo di vedere il momento in cui l'auto esplode mentre le "persone reali" nel film per la maggior parte aspettano semplicemente la metropolitana e non vedono nulla. Ma può anche essere letto come qualcosa di completamente diverso: la natura quotidiana della violenza della pubblicità priva di soggetto priva di significato con gli stessi annunci PA e la stessa canzone appena udibile che crea il ritmo della colonna sonora in un ciclo che rispecchia la sequenza di immagini sovrapposte sopra il monocromo blu di un cartellone pubblicitario. In che modo il tempo trascorso in attesa che l'immagine successiva si riveli diventa qualcosa di diverso da una vecchia melodia ripetitiva Qui una sorta di ritratto dell'artista come affissore di manifesti." Pierre Zaoui in "Sulla comunicazione degli eventi" Onestar press, unknown

rif. B9781666927078Paperback / softback. New. The Social Brain: Sociological Foundations introduces the concept of the social brain including a detailed conceptual model of the social brain networked in the world. The idea that our brains are social has its roots in nineteenth-century social thought and primate research initiated in the 1950s. It was introduced into the neuroscience literature in 1990 as a challenge to the traditional view of the isolated bio-medical brain a view that still dominates the scientific media and public imaginations. Sal Restivo’s foundational thesis is that humans arrive on the evolutionary stage always already and everywhere social. We have social selves social brains and social genes. He argues the “I” is a grammatical illusion reflecting the myth of individualism. The unique feature of this book is the amount of space devoted to constructing the sociological scaffolding needed to understand what the author means by the social self the social mind and the social brain. The approach leads to new ways of thinking about socialization consciousness and creativity as networked phenomena. The result is a novel way of integrating the social self the biological self and the neurological self and erasing the classical boundaries between brain mind and body. paperback

rif. B9783031362033Hardback. New. This open access book is a groundbreaking volume that creates a new field within the intersection of “global health” and “LGBTQ health” delineating specific health challenges and resiliencies. There has been increasing awareness of the importance in recognizing LGBTQ health issues and disparities. However there is a dearth of research and scholarship that examines LGBTQ health through global and comparative perspectives. This book addresses this gap. In the pursuit of scientific inquiry the disciplines in public health have often emphasized reductionist perspectives that are particularized to a specific locale municipality or country. This book's provision of broader perspectives cross-cutting disparities and issues and socio-political-cultural contextualization inform the development of new research policies interventions and programs. Students benefit by learning about LGBTQ health research policies and programs in various countries and regions. Public health researchers benefit by learning about research conducted in various countries and regions along with understanding how research has been linked to and impacted by various policies and programs. Policymakers benefit from learning about overarching and comparative perspectives that could inform more effective policies including those connected to multiple locations. Practitioners learn about various public health practices in multiple countries and regions that could contribute to novel and creative solutions and approaches within the respective contexts. The nine chapters of this volume facilitate greater socio-political-cultural awareness sensitivity and competence; undertake an in-depth literature review of health factors and outcomes; and provide recommendations for increasing health-related capacity through development and collaborations between agencies organizations and institutions across countries and/or regions. Global LGBTQ Health: Research Policy Practice and Pathways is primarily intended for students and instructors in public health medicine nursing other health professions psychology social work LGBTQ or gender/sexuality studies human rights and the social sciences. The book is also a useful resource for public health researchers and practitioners policymakers and healthcare and social service providers. hardcover
