Dear,

I hope you will forgive my delay in this report, a preliminary survey of things done. I'll try to be as faithful as possible to the things that until now have been exposed: the fact remains that they all have a duty to point out, for clarification, to propose.
The few conclusions and many proposals that we have arrived in recent days concerning different aspects of the issue, from the purely organizational reach topics and methods. I'll try to make a short summary.


The Organization needs to start, felt a bit 'all, was to find a common field in which face each other on their work on their interests and / or studies. To live and thrive on confrontation, needed a versatile and exciting, which had also meant to expose "public" work. So: a magazine (on the form will be discussed: online or paper or both) and a meeting (conference call it) to discuss. From the practical point of view, it seems sensible to keep a smaller group that coordinates the magazine (we will call the Soviets, or the editorial board, you name it), which is approximately The ones I'm paying now, and who takes responsibility for choosing the theme, and general route. The conference, extended (with probable fortnightly / ci will be discussed), open access and discussion.


Methods
regard to the magazine, we wanted to avoid any container in which to serve jobs of everyone, without any connection between them and the idea of \u200b\u200ba theme too narrow and / or binding (the sofa in the literature, the 'use in the favorite romance, etc..), we clip the wings critical before you begin.
E 'come out then the idea of \u200b\u200ba theme that would bring together the interests of everyone, trying to create paths (or rather, networks paths) between our interests / work, and that allowed even, possibly, a number of possible routes through the text / journal, making it much more challenging and the work on our method, and the next reading of the finished product (the Dr. . Panazza ssa correctly pointed out that this concept of theme is very close to that of the outstanding porfa. Fusillo Ed.). Such a theme makes it even more strongly the need for a direct comparison with others, and even more that the presence of the seminar: from the earliest meetings, it is quite remarkable to note that you are often facing the East, Depending on the topic "container" that you take. Another example of cross paths you have issues with the boards of the Encyclopedia Einaudi, in which a large conceptual field contains other, placed in order of closeness or distance from the center of the whole and from themselves, depending on its relevance.

Topics
I'm not good to summarize the two issues that have emerged so far, and I apologize and corrections to those who proposed them - indeed, Nicola please refer the issue as he had submitted, I do not remember very well. Below the title put the "topics" that are the ones that I remember and that are not in any way exhaustive of the subject. The collective task is indeed to propose, around these two (or more to be proposed) the largest number of connections and references to their work.

- Uomo e tecnologia. I rapporti tra società/ cultura/ tecnologia. Tratto tipico della modernità (e della post-modernità?), ma non solo, se prendiamo la téchne greca come punto di partenza. Come il processo industriale ha cambiato l'immaginario/ il modo di immaginare sé stessi, dunque anche di scrivere sé stessi.


- corpo-uomo-macchina (mi scuso per i titoli, sono evidentemente provvisori), non troppo distante dal precendente.
Come l'avvento della macchina si riflette nelle produzioni culturali. I rapporti tra corpo umano e macchina (dalla visione del corpo come una macchina perfetta a quella della biocibernetica_migliorare il corpo attraverso le macchine). Visione e significato delle macchine in Italian Futurism and its differences from the Russian or the German school. Disciplinary structures and techniques to bend the body from the prison panopticon of science fiction: the machine at the service of repression.


please send (at all) your contributions on these and other areas of confrontation. How
time, if we could see around half of the month with a theme decided, we set the start of work seminars for mid-January.
Greetings circular, and remember:
Nobody expects the English Inquisition ever.

Common Sorority Innitiations

second mail_ Raoul, December 4, 2005 December 6, 2005



Dear James Thank you for the update and answer you right away. As the hypothesis being with the meta'di this month and, if necessary, to begin with attivita'seminariale meta'di January 2006, I can not say anything but I could not / I will be able 'to be there, I could not / `I will be able to then anyway prepare something interesting and intelligent one of the two themes proposed by the editors. These strike me as valid, but I reserve the right to return to the methodology to be followed regarding this matter, which e'trasversale, open, interdisciplinary nonche'interclassista, all of which meet less PIU' my favor and I do believe that cutting of the journal avra'-or perhaps have a gia'-and post-modern. E'giusto remember that the spirit of the initiative lies la'del of the usual editorial container in which to forcibly return the powers of each. But I wonder, 'whether it is also right, in a preliminary stage, confirm what we ourselves are able to "contain" the proposed theme. Finally, I think that is an opportunity for guidance work of drafting - and not heads of federation researched - is finally an opportunity to examine some common places, some defects in humanist ideology, which is artificially preformed almost always our questions when we relate to science. To explain better I make you a quick example. Some time fa'un epistemologist German named Hübner, had tried to reduce the debate between quantum theories and theories of an array of type relativita'a mythography: in essence and pace of physical theories of science were in his ontologically equal to the formulas of the myth. In fact, both aspiring to a universal description of reality ', poiche'entrambe imply a system of explanation that is based on assumptions and theological substance. In short, theories describe but not explain, cosi'come mythography in a whole world comes to life from an egg or a chaos of that egg and knowing nothing of the chaos. Both the mathematical and physical taken as the egg is percio'non science. A couple of years later, a French epistemologist, Boudon, showed how the theories of science are based in realta'su verita'che si'indimostrabili are, but they are mathematically and cioe'all'interno a defendant horizon possibilita'di verification only of use and enjoyment of mathematics. In mathematics, the dimostrabilita'o not an assumption in turn has a policy of mathematicity ', some substantive, logical course, but never completely analytical, which puo'percio'essere described / published / organized by another gaming system of symbols. Thus the scientific theory tries to explain vertically, which does not occur in the myth, and it poiche'fondamentale 'and his continued lead sara'sempre horizontally, ie across time and culture. All this potra'sembrarti extrinsic and brainy with respect to our intentions well piu'umili editorials, but the case e'esemplare perche'dimostra hybrid as epistemology, the "sentimentalist" humanist Hübner, lacking the necessary critical distance to tackle the problem of the second method from a myth false definition of mathematics. I believe that we will face the same risk, before they give us a solid and shared what piu'possibile idea of \u200b\u200bwhat we mean by machine, technology, biotech, etc.. For my part, since now the 'official entry into the arena, I suggest maybe to submit along with the title of his speech, or in relation to the land of interest, a reference reading, consultation, it is encyclopedic, emerografico or essay, a short methodological support to understand what is spoken, in which field you want to discuss whether and in what terms they want accountability. I've seen here in Monaco, in the library of letters, that there is a magazine specializing in piu'di (cerchero'di send in the coming days the title and series), and that the lexicon of German aesthetics among its entries " technology "and" machine ". Here, I feel that this e'quello for now, given my distance (across the board) in work in progress in Bologna, to show himself to the success of our hearing - and I hope still to be affected - a publishing project.

Letter To A Priest About Confirmation

terza_Nicola_

"cari amici vicini e lontani, buonasera ovunque voi siate".
Mi aggiungo così alla lista dei partecipanti virtuali, dopo Giacomo e Raoul.
Innanzitutto, il formato della rivista. Credo che il formato "virtuale", o non-cartaceo, sia preferibile per tutta una serie di motivi: più accessibile, più veloce, più "leggero" rispetto a un foglio che necessiterebbe di tipografie quando non di editori, e che comporterebbe costi per la distribuzione (a meno che non lo si voglia distribuire noi, magari in p.zza Verdi, in magra concorrenza con spacciatori e venditori di bici rubate). Aggiungo but these are not an expert in publishing, and wait by dr. Azzano corrections.
Second, the magazine - no matter whether paper or electronic - is certainly not a novelty nor a cultural innovation. On the web, in libraries and bookstores are available to several hundreds (if not thousands) of magazines. To take a ridiculous example, I discovered that there are 4 or 5 journals in the world dedicated exclusively to the food "chilli", imagine the magazines "cultural" drawn up by various departments of various universities, groups of fanatical readers, the houses publishers, individual authors, etc. ... As always, the variety can be confusing and help at the same time. From this point of view, the links on the site of James are useful (especially in my mate secret is accessible at the outset, a group like ours). Another magazine issue, not present in the link, Griselda Online. Mass in four four eight feet from the "manager" of Italian in Bologna, was an immediate success, the number of hits, surprising. The idea is simple: a bundling of contributions of various types linked by a theme that changes monthly - the body, hell, aliens and so on. The vagueness of the proposed topic can accommodate items different from each other, to widen the pool of users, and to say things like: "After six months of activity, il progetto Griselda Online rivela una sorprendente ecc...
E qui mi ricollego a noi. Dai confronti che abbiamo avuto, è emersa chiaramente la volontà di evitare: 1) il "tema-raccoglitore" (nel senso "griseldiano", quindi: corpo, coprofagia ecc.) e 2) quello che si potrebbe chiamare il "tema-libero" (nel senso scolastico di libera esercitazione scritta sui propri interessi). Nella mail di Giacomo sono riassunte bene le proposte avanzate per superare questo primo gradino (che secondo me è anche il più difficile).
Credo che sia utile racContare come siamo arrivati all'abbozzo di quelle due "cornici" (che ancora non chiamerei temi). Parlando delle rispettive aree di interesse, sono risultate diversi punti di Contact: the instrumental rationality (Weber memory of) stuck in the '60s and '70s by Paul Volponi, the relationship of subordination of the unrecognized "letters" against the "science" in Italian literature (and not only) of 900, from role and the myth of the machine in the avant-garde literary primonovecentesche, the function of the technology within the repressive apparatus / coercion from 800 to today: we extracted from this variety some term-guide (see also the statement of James).
E 'it is clear that, as in Val di Susa, an initial core drilling: an attempt, that is, to probe the possilibità a "field" policy. Regard to the findings of Munich Raoul, I agree on the necessity of a preliminary (bourdieusiana) "definition of field, so as to eradicate, in embryo," yerba mala "(do you spell that?) Illiteracy Italiot scientific humanism. But I think too much, or at least premature, given the way "spontaneous" in which the themes have emerged - and especially given the provisional nature still the same - to introduce in the discussion area specialists such as history of science. What I would like also, and especially in anticipation of the seminars, is that freedom to expose themselves and fight back, maybe at other times it is somewhat compressed by the institution (and competition). I wrote
too, and I must go: I have to give a lecture in Val di Susa, on the theme: "Technology and the mountain: the drilling of the Alps in terms of actants." Greetings to all

dear all, I apologize

first absence in the first riunione.Dunque I tried to answer as soon as the first strain, but given my extreme slowness in reading I had to print things on the screen, read the proposals, the objections, the so-called thematic groups (I was afraid to write some nonsensical sfondone) etc etc: I know one thing very long.

First, I'd have some little doubt it had been informed, say, only through the various e-mail: I read that the theme or topic "framework" is very large (man and technology, human-body-machine), although not as generic as the body, etc. nothing. I realized then that inside the container can coinvivere a number of sensitive issues to the experience of micro-study of each ...

yes, I think just the claim to better define the terms of discourse.: Technology, machine etc. Personally, I suggest many things, but I do not know what may be relevant to the project that you thought. I think it also fair (and natural) to report a bibliographic reference, as has been said-or better-written Now that I think would be odd to think to write a whole article on the meanings of the items "technology", "machine" etc, a kind of Freud's sull'unheimliche, gutting a curious word. The rest would be trivial to think of the car for what it is today only. I do not know which of the e-mail seems to have read something on the machines Verne.quella so fantastic that it seems to me a brilliant idea (at this very night I happened to "climb" on nautilus ....) .
Other ideas, speaking in terms of its fresh and simple (unfortunately not a pure literary and a little ashamed): I can think of a whole series of issues on the machine from the cinema (the bureaucratic machine of
Brazil, the world is overcrowded of gadgets and machinery Human Blade Runner, Metropolis ...), and also the old theater (performance related to the mutual stimulation of car and actor), music (I'm writing right now, an introductory page on this artist Zazou, the French- who wrote an electronic score, while a painter who painted in
videos: yes, two neutral). In fact, now that I think, come to mind also the machinery of
Duchamp (the "spouse", with its creaking sensual! So, again, the sensual man-machine relationship.) Well, I might think of these arguments improperly in relation to publishing project. Look for this one
your clarification. I also visited the site of the Companion secret that graphic .... ! As I read, among other things, I discovered a warning with a curious resonance, in technical terms a "reason", I like to tell you (but maybe too long a speech ...): the "secret sharer" of non-conrad Another is that the "reason for travel companion, also in the Book of Tobit
and Andersen. It is a spectral figure, an angel, a messaggero.Insomma, I'm really bored.

Dear all, I am writing to

groped to fix the next date, trying as much as possible to meet everyone's needs, and give some information.
- Unfortunately, the deck is short, so someone (alas) will probably still out. Please let me know as soon as possible (those who had not already done so) when I can fix the next meeting of the day: Saturday 17 / Sunday 18 / Monday, 19. I fear that the winning option (as I recall) will be the very last, but please tell me how you made, maybe we can save both ways. Tell me also to set "maximum" of participation. I know some (Samanta En) Bruno have awaiting them at home and can not be late.
- my small contribution, inconclusive.
About the concept of technology, I realized that the online encyclopedia (it's Sunday, I could not see anything) the more reductive (and coaches) is of course the De Agostini, which reduces it to "A collection of studies to clarify in terms of streamlining the various mathematical scientific technical processes by which raw materials are transformed into finished products: wood technology, glass , construction, textile technology, etc... " Italian ... Not for nothing that Borges had read the British have to fourteen years: its definition (of 27 words, the entire fee, is thousands) states: "the application of scientific knowledge to the Practical AIMS of human life or, as it Sometimes is phrased, to the change and manipulation of the human environment ... ". Finally, the Canadians Agora, which do not give a true definition but rather a Mushroom on what he wants or does not mean the end for us young people today. According to Bigelow, quoted in the "definition" of Agora, the term technology "means the technique en tant que sur la Fondei modern science, par opposition aux techniques traditionnelles, violinist celles du ou du peintre par example, here étaient home empirique".
I find myself much more in the definition of British and Bigelow. And from these two parties to share with you the thoughts I had about two books read in the last few days, completely (really?) Different from each other. One is Emily Quartermaine, a sociologist of deviance which published this year, "underground cages. Models and disciplinary strategies of resistance, And Derive and Landings 2005. "It 's a book about the change in the Italian society since the seventies to today, and the mechanism that led to the current situation. Quartermaine says, in essence, that while until the seventies of the prison disciplinary method (a scientific model of control, study, analysis and correction of prisoners and a system composed of several scientific knowledge - medicine, psychology, sociology, psychiatry - that analyze the deviant at the same time transforming it into a patient and a punishment, in an experiment and a punishment (Foucault's all, nothing new under the sun) - and, I said, until that time the system is maintained within the prison, the eighties and nineties, the system will spread like wildfire. Not only are the inmates to have similar treatment, but also toxic, the misfits, the poor. All items that are not include in the common world will be treated as sick. In short, a technological method (ie an application in the world and human behavior - in order to improve it - the application of scientific knowledge to the Practical AIMS of human life) to treat certain types of human behavior considered deviant. The second is ilbro Intelligence and injury. Against the scientific foundations of racism, "by Stephen Jay Gould, Milan NET 2005. The book is old, and especially if you take the American obsession with measurement IQ as a method to classify and judge the individual's behavior exactly. The original title is much more intriguing: The Mismeasure of Man, however I look better naked (and scientist, pinching on the method, not on principle) the emergence of scientific theories in favor of a certain superiority of a particular group (which looks case, the strain is almost always white Nordic wasp ... I wonder why?) on the other, be they women, blacks or poor. The technology to be able to answer the pivotal question of all companies: Why are superiors and inferiors? And above all, because it is right that this is so?
All this long story (actually I wanted to talk to STI 'books and I have not met anyone for two days ...) to indicate that the strong link between technology and social control (and politics). And literature? If someone just interested in the literature (as Adriana says Cavarero) Who is the speech, while the science (Cavarero means that legal, but I would extend it to control technology) is what the speech. Psychiatrists, sociologists, doctors, phrenologists look at the deviant as a number, as a thing. The deviant, when he can, takes possession of the speech was not his (literature) to reaffirm the WHO, their individuality against an internal system (which is scientifically based and therefore no doubt), their complex personality ... and so on (so long as it is a part-sociological theory). And if we were going to the nineteenth century, theories of social and control are already well assimilated by these guys as Balzac, Tolstoy, Zola, and other more famous I can not remember the name.

have been long and I beg your pardon. I had to talk about this because I want to ask if I have blundered, or if you think there might be the definition. Without discussing the fact that when we face and see how everyone else should, if the definition of technology would look for another way to become more restricted.

A collective embrace,
Nobody Expects English Inquisition

Is Drinking Blueberry Juice Good For You

Nicola writes

Dear fellow students, you first
around a message of Christmas greetings particularly significant: "Merry Christmas to all. Limit intake of foods high in cholesterol: remember that this day he was born not dead. "

After this pleasant pleasantries, I wanted to put into circulation a series of references to the book stolen by Pierpaolo Antonello, THE MENAGE A TROIS. SCIENCE, PHILOSOPHY, TECHNIQUES IN THE LITERATURE OF ITALIAN 900 (Le Monnier University).
It 's a book whose approach deserves to be taken in analysis, clearly conceived by a mind that has lived for several years in Anglo-Saxon countries: start by saying that the combination of Literature and Science, far from having taken root in Italy, is now an area governed by the 80 consolidated in America and England ... Compared to our project, is perhaps a little collateral, because in the end it comes to epistemological problems or "national culture" - the cleaver insulted Croce in Italian, which would have condemned to centuries of obscurantism idealistic and scientific ignorance .. . But perhaps it is better to speak out or in any other place.
I just wanted to mention that Antonio makes a distinction between "technical" and "technology" quite interesting: the first is understood as "art", "constructive process" which allows him to reconnect the great humanistic tradition and the Italian Renaissance (helped by Calvino), while the second - the "technology" - embodies the classic object of criticism of the usual German cacciapalle (Heidegger, Junger, then copied by Vattimo etc.). "superstructure automated" "plant" ...

Enough for now. Here some highlights:

CP Snow, The Two Cultures, Feltrinelli 1967 (during the era of automation and alienation, it seems that this book did much to discuss, before being completely forgotten)

BATTISTINI, Literature and science, "Lett ital. Contemporary, edited by G. MARIANI, M. Petrucciani, Rome 1982 (see the Italian language as were advanced in the 80s ...)

C. Bernardini, T. DE MAURO, count and recount. Dialogue on the two cultures, Laterza 2003 (This is perhaps the most interesting, because it is the most recent)

Maybe in the next few days I do a brief, very brief summary of the book then I will send (the book, I keep the summary. joke).
Greetings to all and happy holidays

Nicola
