Abstract

Terra Forma raconte l'exploration d'une terre inconnue : la nôtre. Cinq siècles après les voyageurs de la Renaissance partis cartographier les terra incognito du Nouveau Monde, cet ouvrage propose de redécouvrir autrement cette Terre que nous croyons si bien connaître. En redéfinissant, ou plutôt en étendant le vocabulaire cartographique traditionnel, il offre un manifeste pour la fondation d'un nouvel imaginaire géographique et, ce faisant, politique. Les sept chapitres de ce livre sont des points de vue sur la réalité, de possibles visions du monde esquissées par différents prismes, comme autant d'instruments optiques : par les profondeurs, par les mouvements, par le point de vie, par les périphéries, par le pouls, par les creux, par les disparitions et les ruines, ils produisent des savoirs situés, incarnés. Écrit sur le mode du récit d'exploration, cet ouvrage se veut aussi un manuel de dessin, qui invite le lecteur à explorer les techniques de représentation sur divers terrains, dans le but de constituer progressivement et collectivement un atlas d'un nouveau genre. Travail expérimental à six mains, Terra Forma est le résultat d'une collaboration entre deux architectes dont la pratique se trouve à la croisée des questions de paysage et de stratégie territoriale, Alexandra Arènes et Axelle Grégoire, et une historienne des sciences, Frédérique Aït-Touati.

Abstract

From an eminent author in the field, 'The Future of Visual Anthropology' develops a new approach to visual anthropology and presents a groundbreaking examination of developments within the field and the way forward for the subdiscipline in the twenty-first century The explosion of visual media in recent years has generated a wide range of visual and digital technologies which have transformed visual research and analysis. The result is an exciting new interdisciplinary approach of great potential influence for the future of social/cultural anthropology. Sarah Pink argues that this potential can be harnessed by engaging visual anthropology with its wider contexts, including: * the increasing use of visual research methods across the social sciences and humanities * the growth in popularity of the visual as methodology and object of analysis within mainstream anthropology and applied anthropology * the growing interest in 'anthropology of the senses' and media anthropology * the development of new visual technologies that allow anthropologists to work in new ways. This book has immense interdisciplinary potential, and will be essential reading for students, researchers and practitioners of visual anthropology, media anthropology, visual cultural studies, media studies and sociology.

Abstract

Our everyday lives are filled with a massive flow of information that we must interpret in order to understand the world we live in. Considering this complex variety of data floating around us, sometimes the best -- or even only -- way to communicate is visually. This unique book presents a fascinating perspective on the subject, highlighting the work of the masters of the profession who have created a number of breakthroughs that have changed the way we communicate. Information Graphics has been conceived and designed not just for graphics professionals, but for anyone interested in the history and practice of communicating visually. The in-depth introductory section, illustrated with over 60 images (each accompanied by an explanatory caption), features essays by Sandra Rendgen, Paolo Ciuccarelli, Richard Saul Wurman, and Simon Rogers; looking back all the way to primitive cave paintings as a means of communication, this introductory section gives readers an excellent overview of the subject. The second part of the book is entirely dedicated to contemporary works by today's most renowned professionals, presenting 200 graphics projects, with over 400 examples -- each with a fact sheet and an explanation of methods and objectives -- divided into chapters by the subjects Location, Time, Category, and Hierarchy."--Publisher description.

Abstract

Exploiting our boundless desire to access everything all the time, digital technology is breaking down whatever boundaries still exist between the state, the market, and the private realm. Bernard Harcourt offers a powerful critique of what he calls the expository society, revealing just how unfree we are becoming and how little we seem to care.

Abstract

Dataïsme is het geloof dat alles te vertalen is in data. Data leggende wereld vast en maken haar beheersbaar. Maar voor wie enmet welk doel? Ethische dilemma?s rondom data worden vaakgereduceerd tot zaken als privacy en regulering, terwijl de onderliggendeaannames van het dataïsme zelden ter discussiestaan. Is de mens echt als algoritme te begrijpen? Wat gebeurt ermet de dingen die niet in data te vatten zijn? En waarom wordtde dataïstische toekomst voorgesteld als onvermijdelijk?Tegenover het ideaal van een geautomatiseerde wereld die onsgevangenhoudt in een onzichtbaar net, stelt Miriam Rasch eenherwaardering van frictie. Frictie is een geduchte strategie vanhen die strijden voor emancipatie of zich teweerstellen tegen deeis van transparantie en constante communicatie. Rasch opentde weg naar ?de-automatisering? als mogelijkheid om woordenen dingen weer als nieuw te laten schijnen. Hoe kunnen we indataïstische tijden ons eigen verhaal blijven vertellen?
