    Seminar - Representation

    Architectural photography

    “Architectural photography (kenchiku shashin 建築写真)” is an expansive and multifaceted notion, approached differently by architects, urban planners, interior designers, developers, publishers, amateur photographers, commissioned professional photographers, or artists. This confrontation of meanings and uses is what interests us. Indeed, while architectural photography has been widely and regularly displayed since the 19th century, through albums, dedicated magazines, serial publications, photobooks, and exhibitions, there is currently no in-depth study that allows for a global understanding. Therefore, we have decided to initiate a seminar that aims to formulate a definition of this notion that encompasses all of its complexity.

    Publishing another way: the epic of Episciences and overlay journals

    In the context of the profound digital transformation of scientific research, and in particular in enhanced knowledge dissemination, the epic of Episciences finds its roots in the beginning of the years 2000, when scientists want to take back in hand the whole process of publication. Nowadays, the platform contains close to 30 journals, covering a wide range of disciplines, from mathematics and computer science to the humanities and social sciences, among which diverse subjects like environmental studies and mechanical engineering. Throughout the presentations, the experience reports and a round table bringing together the journals that have made the choice to join the platform Episciences, these days aim to focus on the status of open access scientific publication, to consider the perspectives of the model of overlay journals and to place Episciences in the landscape of open science, on a national, European and international scale.

    The “Portfolio” from Every Angle

    Archiving and Preserving Working Documents (1680s-1820s)

    The preservation of digital data is a current societal issue. The eighteenth century saw a similar awareness due to an unprecedented increase in the quantity of documents preserved and therefore available. One of its manifestations was the portfolio (or “porte-feuille”): “cardboard folded in two, covered with skin or some cloth, & used to carry papers” (Dictionnaire de l’Académie Française, 1718). The aim of this conference is to examine this medium for storing and classifying personal documents, whether or not they were known to his contemporaries, published or not: drafts, reading notes, letters, printed matter and other “living writings”. The entire literate society can then be considered, let us think of the portfolios of a minister, an artist, a merchant, a craftsman, a man of letters, a scholar, etc. The French term “portefeuille” itself suggests tracking its progressive use throughout Europe and its colonial extensions.

    The international interdisciplinary conference “Landscapes and Sanctuaries. The rediscovery of cult places in the Aegean Basin and in Southern Italy”, focuses on the study of landscapes and the rediscovery of sanctuaries in Southern Italy and Greece between the eighteenth and early twentieth centuries. It invites to cross archaeological and historical approaches to understand the link between sanctuaries and landscapes, but also the way these data have conditioned the rediscovery of lost archaeological sites.

    Continuity of the notion of border in the cultural and creative industries

    6th study day of the Young Researchers Network of LabEx ICCA

    Cet événement sera l’occasion de questionner d’une part les évolutions des démarcations esthétiques et symboliques, ainsi que leurs effets sur la valorisation des biens culturels et le travail des créateurs. Nous nous intéresserons d’autre part à l’actualité des frontières nationales dans la circulation mondialisée des biens culturels à l’heure des plateformes numériques. Nous aborderons enfin les défis épistémologiques que posent les évolutions de ces différentes frontières pour la recherche sur les industries culturelles et créatives.

    HyperUrban

    Data-driven City

    Le terme « Data Cities » intègre du postmodernisme, de l’inventivité, de l’aventure et de la création. Dans un contexte de villes des données, c’est-à-dire ville numérique, l’inventivité devient une pratique quotidienne faisant partie de la vie de la ville. Le concept de « villes des données » évoque des interrogations, qui sont fortement et discrètement, existentielles pouvant abolir de nombreux dogmes et frontières culturelles, philosophiques et éthiques relatifs à la « ville en devenir » (en tant qu’œuvre urbaine et architecturale). HyperUrbain (HU9) abordera la question de la ville dirigée par les données.

    African Revolutionary Film: Archives in the Making

    Journal “Sources. Materials Fieldwork in African Studies”

    We are delighted to announce this call for papers for a special issue on revolutionary African films made during decolonization (1950s-1970s), their role in shaping the social lives of African viewers both then and now, and their perilous and complex position as archival sources. This special issue seeks to gather scholarship on African revolutionary filmmaking and African film and media archives from across academic disciplines and intellectual contexts. We use the term “revolutionary” broadly here to denote the radical, multifaceted projects of transforming society, culture and discourses from colonial rule in ways that both genuinely sought emancipation through the “disruption of existing categories” as well as those projects that embedded authoritarian politics under the sign of revolution.

    The spatial, Economic and Social Dimensions of Pandemics and Environmental Risks, & the Pillars for developing an Integrated National Strategy for Crisis management

    The 8th National Conference of Young Geographers

    The third decade of the third millennium has been marked by the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, which has affected countries in diverse ways. These countries have seen an increase in confirmed cases, human and economic losses, and political and geostrategic impacts. The pandemic has also had social, health, and educational implications. The crisis has led to a return to restriction procedures and the closure of borders, and has forced countries to focus more on their own needs. Governments have struggled to deal with the pandemic and have called on their armies for help and mobilized parts of civil society.

    Food Crises: Challenges, Innovations and Sustainable Change

    From prehistoric times to the present, crises relating to military conflicts, climatic hazards, health challenges, harvest failures, economic decline, environmental change, geopolitical conflicts and many other factors have affected food systems in complex and varying ways, depending on specific constellations, local resilience and the timescales involved. The distinctive aim of this conference is to examine the “creative” and “constructive” potential of the relationship, specifically the extent to which crises can trigger innovation and sustainable change within food systems.

    Lords and Masters : domination in medieval Normandy (11th-15th centuries)

    Taking inspiration from Robert Fossier’s important questions on who dominated the territory and inhabitants (“la terre et les hommes”) of medieval Normandy, we are keen to reopen major historiographical debates on feudalism and serfdom. Our conference aims to stimulate new reflections on the notion of domination. We take the term to include not only the actual control of people and/or territories, but also strategies implemented by the dominators to legitimize and justify the social order over which they ruled. Through reinterpretation of political, economic, social and religious arenas, considered together, this conference positions itself within the cursus of recent works on the fabric of power in medieval societies. It aims to question, and perhaps redefine, the concept of domination. Whilst domination contributed much to social hierarchy, other formative aspects –  such as cooperation, negotiation and contestation – should not be overlooked.
