Filippo FIMIANI Programma Estetica e Cultura visuale 2021/2022
Generalità: FILIPPO FIMIANI
Anno Accademico dell'offerta: 2021/2022
Corso di Studi: Laurea magistrale in Corporate Communication e Media
Attività Didattica: ESTETICA E CULTURA VISUALE (9 CFU = 60 ORE)
OBIETTIVI FORMATIVI
Lo scopo educativo è duplice: fornire gli strumenti metodologici ed ermeneutici per la comprensione degli studi contemporanei di cultura visuale e introdurre e consentire un'analisi delle pratiche di ri-mediazione e narrazione transmediale mediante i nuovi dispositivi mobili di visualizzazione e le nuove pratiche e prestazioni spettatoriali. Lo studente acquisirà una conoscenza interdisciplinare adeguata e aggiornata per interpretare le immagini, fisse in movimento, come media capaci di attivare esperienze simboliche, abitudini, azioni, credenze e sentimenti caratterizzanti la nostra vita quotidiana e la società della comunicazione, e come materia di un incessante processo di pratiche di appropriazione e remix, di produzione e circolazione di rappresentazioni identitarie e sociali; tali pratiche saranno sperimentare e discusse durante le attività di verifica fornite dal corso stesso e dal workshop.
PREREQUISITI
Sono auspicabili nozioni di semiotica, storia dell’estetica e dell’arte moderna e contemporanea, storia del cinema e dei media.
CONTENUTI DEL CORSO
Self.ie.s. Autonarrazioni contemporanee
Il corso fornirà agli studenti una ricostruzione storica e tematica delle principali proposte e interpretazioni, negli studi di cultura visuale contemporanei, delle pratiche, delle poetiche e delle estetiche del Selfie. Tali immagini non sono solo una versione aggiornata dell’autoritratto ma, per la loro stessa origine e natura networked, sono assemblage e gesti intermediali complessi e ambigui, con una potente agency sociale: il loro orizzonte di produzione e consumo è difatti insieme l’identitario (individuale e collettivo) e il mediale, l’esperienza incarnata e singolare del divenire del Sé, della sua soggettivizzazione, e la sua narrazione estetica pubblica e virale anche attraverso pratiche di appropriazione e remix. I dispositivi digitali di visione e visualizzazione a nostra disposizione, come gli smartphone e i mobile devices, con le loro qualità materiali e formali – straordinariamente alte o banalmente basse e povere –, implicano nuove figure di spettatore e performer-consumatore e nuovi generi di narrazione e rappresentazione di Sé e degli altri, del mondo e degli oggetti: il corso intende fornire gli strumenti interdisciplinari adeguati per leggere criticamente tali pratiche mediali contemporanee. Lo studente potrà lui stesso sperimentare e testare le implicazioni e gli effetti nelle culture del consumo – dalla moda al turismo –, le retoriche ideologiche e le potenzialità emancipatrici di tali pratiche e immagini durante le attività di verifica previste dal corso.
METODI DIDATTICI
Lezioni teoriche ed esercitazioni pratiche.
MODALITÀ DI VERIFICA DELL'APPRENDIMENTO
Costanti verifiche intercorso, di gruppo e individuali, e la realizzazione di un prodotto audiovisivo. Esame con voti finale.

Generalities: FILIPPO FIMIANI
Academic Year: 2021/2022
Study Class: Master Corporate Communication and Media
Teaching Activity: AESTHETICS AND VISUAL CULTURE (9 CFU = 60 HOURS)
EDUCATIONAL GOALS
The educational purpose is twofold: to provide the methodological and hermeneutical tools to understanding of the contemporary visual culture studies and to introduce and allow an analysis of the practices of remediation and transmedia storytelling by the new viewing mobile devices and new spectatorship’s figures. The student has to acquire an appropriate and up to date interdisciplinary knowledge to interpret critically the images, fixed and moving, as media capable of activating symbolic experiences, habits and tastes, actions and consumption, beliefs and feelings characterizing our daily life and the communication society, and as matter of an incessant process of appropriation and remix of self-representation and sociality. The students can experiment these practices and test these fields during verification activities provided by the course itself and the workshop.
PRE-REQUIREMENTS
Would be desirable notions of semiotics, aesthetics, modern and contemporary art history, history of cinema and media.
CLASS CONTENTS
Self.ie.s. Contemporary self-narrations
The course will provide students with a historical and thematic reconstruction of the main proposals and interpretations, in the field of contemporary visual culture, of the practices, the poetics and the aesthetics of the Selfie. These images are not only an updated version of the self-portrait but, by their very origin and networked nature, they are assemblages and complex and ambiguous inter-mediated gestures with social agency: their horizon of production and consumption is in fact both the identity (individual and collective) and the media, the embodied and singular experience of the becoming of the Self, of its subjectivization, and its public and viral aesthetic narration also through appropriation and remixing practices.
The digital devices of visualization devices at our disposal, such as smartphones and tablet, with their material and formal qualities—extraordinarily high or banally low and poor—imply new figures of spectator and performer-consumer and new kinds of narration and representation of the Self and the others, the world and the objects: the course aims to provide the appropriate interdisciplinary tools to critically read these contemporary media practices. During the constant verification activities foreseen by the course, the student will be able to recognize and stress the implications and effects on the cultures of consumption—from fashion to tourism, and so on—, and, at the same time, the ideological rhetoric and the emancipatory potential of these practices and images.
