Syncope in Performing and Visual Arts

Presence and absence being at the core of the state of syncope, it is not surprising to see the neo-platonician philosopher Marsilio Ficino including it among the seven states of vacatio in Book XIII of the Theologia Platonica along with sleep, melancholia, temperance, solitude, stupor and even chastity, among the seven possibilities for the soul to escape the materiality of the body. This book project is precisely the third part of the vacatio series in the collection Via Artis after two books on sleep in visual arts. Ficino’s categories are used as impulses and here what we are particularly interested in is not the spiritual aspect of syncope but precisely its materiality, how does syncope manifest or does not manifest itself in performing and visual arts? What is the intention of the artist when representing the syncope? Is it to show who experiences it or what is seen when there is figuration? Or is it above all, to make those who do not experience it feel what is experienced in a state of syncope?

Digital architectural design seminar (SCAN'16)

Le Séminaire de conception architecturale numérique (SCAN), devenu un des rendez-vous de la communauté francophone de l’architecture, est une conférence qui rassemble des chercheurs autour de questionnements portant sur les implications du numérique en conception architecturale. Après avoir abordé les thèmes de l’esquisse numérique (2005), de l’image numérique (2007), des approches environnementales (2009), de l’espace collaboratif (2010), des complexités des modèles de l’architecture numérique (2012), de(s) l’interaction(s) des maquettes numériques (2014), cette 7^e édition prolonge la réflexion engagée depuis une dizaine d’années en se donnant pour thème « Mètre et paramètre, mesure et démesure du projet ».

Dance and technique - Number 2016 of The Dancing Plague

Numéro 2016 de The Dancing Plague

Si l’art comme technè est une problématique largement explorée et débattue au cours de l’histoire des idées, la danse et son rapport à la technique n’ont été que relativement peu abordés dans ces cadres. The Dancing Plague, à la suite de ses précédents numéros « Danse vs compétition » et « Danse et divertissement », souhaite donner un espace à cette exploration, car elle fait écho à sa ligne éditoriale : donner à lire des écrits sur la danse stimulants et accessibles à tout lecteur – praticien, chercheur, spectateur, ou simple curieux.

Boethius revisited

The reception of his works and his influence on European literature from the Middle-Ages to the present time

With the contribution of specialists in several branches of humanities, our purpose is to bring to light some neglected or partially studied aspects of this great classical thinker and exemplary figure of scientific eclecticism, who played a great part in the universalization of knowledge. We will pay special attention to the way in which Boethius’ scientific and cultural legacy was included in the works of other European authors, and was renewed according to the feelings, anxieties and aspirations particular to every age and historical context.
