It is thus much easier than before to contrast the mimetic from the navigational use of maps made every day more visible by the developments of digital techniques. The paper aims at opening a conversation between science studies and geography by showing how the notion of territory itself may now be clearly seen as an artefact from a mimetic usage of maps.</p> Mon, 03 Oct 2011 09:25:32 +0000 admin 143 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/151 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/151" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Art History Design Digital Humanities <p>Following the marvelous example provided by the fac simile of Veronese’s Nozze di Cana in San Giorgio in Venice and constrasting this case of a good reproduction with the catastrophic restoration of Holbein’s Ambassadors, the paper explores the reason why common sense has so much difficulty with the notion that a fac simile may actually add new layers of originality to the original –contrary to the thesis so much popularized by Benjamin’s essay on mechanical reproduction.</p> Tue, 04 Oct 2011 12:50:14 +0000 admin 151 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/163 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/163" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Digital Humanities Semiotics & Literature Studies <p>The shift from first to second empiricism, requires a new way of handling the empiricism of ‘things’ instead of the empiricism of ‘objects’. To acquire the proper litterary resources to do so, it’s useful to turn toward the great American Richard Powers and lift out of its novels some of the tool to present again the connections between characters and technical or scientific entities. But the task is even more interesting when those resources are then used to read again a classic of scientific litterature, in this case Alan Turing famous article from the 50s where he imagines his famous test.</p> Tue, 04 Oct 2011 14:00:06 +0000 admin 163 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/204 Digital Humanities <p>Starting from the work of Saraceno, a few examples of the art and politics field are developed.</p> Thu, 06 Oct 2011 14:05:14 +0000 admin 204 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/227 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/227" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Actor-Network-Theory Digital Humanities Semiotics & Literature Studies <p>This paper tries to understand what has changed in social theory, because of the development of information technology in work sites and because of the analysis of sociologists, specialists of labor relations, of organizations, of situated cognition, etc. It starts with a simple example of practice and tries to analyze it by following new concepts which seems to derive from the redistribution of humans and non-humans due to the pervasiveness of computerized work sites.</p> Fri, 07 Oct 2011 10:33:56 +0000 admin 227 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/230 Digital Humanities Quantitative methods Sociology of Science <p>By pushing to its extreme conclusions recent accounts of formal reasoning in context, this article claims that a machine that cumulates enough context -in the highly reduced forms of co-occurences of words- is able to capture the solidity of most micro-theories; emergent properties are studied of what is a prototype for a work station allowing social science students to treat full texts in a « quali-quantitative” manner.</p> Fri, 07 Oct 2011 10:45:27 +0000 admin 230 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/238 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/238" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Actor-Network-Theory Digital Humanities Quantitative methods Humanités Numériques Méthodes Quantitatives <p>“The Whole is Always Smaller Than Its Parts” —How Digital Navigation May Modify Social Theory (with Pablo Jensen, Tommaso Venturini, Sébastian Grauwin and Dominique Boullier).</p> Sat, 08 Oct 2011 07:48:18 +0000 admin 238 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/245 Digital Humanities <p>The digital world is another version of the material which has the strange effect of rendering the connections more easily traceable than in the earlier predigital world.</p> Sat, 08 Oct 2011 10:15:28 +0000 admin 245 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/252 <p><a href="http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr/node/252" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Digital Humanities Modes of Existence Philosophy <p>The result of a twenty five years inquiry, it offers a positive version to the question raised, only negatively, with the publication, in 1991, of ''We have never been modern'': if ''we'' have never been modern, then what have ''we'' been? From what sort of values should ''we'' inherit? In order to answer this question, a research protocol has been developed that is very different from the actor-network theory.</p> Sat, 08 Oct 2011 14:19:35 +0000 admin 252 at http://cms-brunolatour.sciences-po.fr
