Posthuman Ethical Aesthetics: An Applied Theatre Case
This article examines the relationship between ethics and aesthetics from the perspectives of posthumanism and new materialism, aiming to enrich the debate on the role of aesthetic education as a tool for promoting healing in response to the planetary crisis. The article shows how, in the posthumanist and neomaterialist approach, ethics and aesthetics are two interconnected dimensions capable of soliciting affective forces that encourage individu…
Breathing as Intra-action. The case of Silent Days, Sleepless Nights
Il tempo della cura”, un progetto di medicina narrativa attraverso il teatro di comunità
Come è noto la prima ondata della pandemia ha colpito duramente la città e la provincia di Bergamo. A due anni di distanza un gruppo di professionisti di Pronto Soccorso operanti presso l’ospedale Papa Giovanni XXIII di Bergamo ha deciso di lavorare con il teatro per raccontare la propria storia e rielaborare trauma. Guidati da una professionista di teatro di comunità (applied theatre) il gruppo ha lavorato per un intero anno sull’esperienza in p…
Media representation of mutual aid practices: Superbergamo as ‘good news
During the pandemic, civil society organisations adjusted their purpose to provide support to the most vulnerable. In the midst of the first wave, Superbergamo, an initiative that grew out of local activist associations, provided groceries and medicine to the elderly, the infirm and at-risk groups during the lockdown in Bergamo, Italy. This research analyses a newspaper article from Corriere della Sera published almost two years after the event, …
Post-anthropocentric Rehearsal Studies. A conceptual framework to account for the social and material mediations in performance-making
This article uses the concept of ‘mediation’ to account for the sociomateriality involved in the rehearsal of a new play. Drawing on ideas from the ‘New Sociology of Art’ that has its origins in Science and Technology Studies, we show how the sociomateriality of the rehearsal is an essential part of the process of theatre-making. It means giving to materials, bodies and matters in the rehearsal room a crucial role in the process of developing and…
Communication Technologies and Aid Practices: Superbergamo, Group Chats, and the Covid-19 Pandemic
This article examines “Superbergamo”, a collective which emerged in response to the needs of vulnerable citizens during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Bergamo (Italy). The analysis reveals the central role of social media and group chat systems in facilitating the spontaneous creation of the group, and the subsequent development of coordinated voluntary emergency activities that brought aid to thousands of local people. Inspired by Ac…
Bodies Translating Bodies: Methodological Reflections on How to Tackle Aesthetic Practices from an ANT Point of View
STS and 'aesthetic studies' share an interest in artifacts and the aim to describe and analyse both artifacts and their agency. The present article contributes to such dialogue, first by reconstructing the relation between Actor-Network Theory and 'aesthetic studies' and then by proposing an analytical model enabling the description of 'aesthetic practices', by considering artifacts as bodies. Such model draws on Latour’s (2004) reflection about …

Design/methodology/approach Using a practice-based framework, the article utilizes a case study of the first legal meeting between a lawyer and a woman who has experienced violence. The case study illustrates how the legal ad…
Unpacking distributed creativity: Analysing sociomaterial practices in theatre artwork
This article shows how to account for the sociomaterial dimension of distributed creativity in the arts. By following the genesis of a new theatre production, we examined the sociomaterial practices involved to unpack the sociomaterial dimension of distributed creativity. To account for this, we draw on concepts from laboratory studies to explain creative and design work. In so doing, we considered the significance of distributed creative practic…
Knowing in a System of Fragmented Knowledge
Knowing is a situated activity. Adopting a practice-based approach, this article describes a workplace characterized by technologically dense practices as a setting in which human actors and technological objects work “together.” The case of remote cardiological consultation is paradigmatic of how information and communication technologies (ICT) enter workplaces and reshape them as “systems of fragmented knowledge:” that is, learning settings in …
