grazie a Mara, salita a Settimo scesa a Milano, che me lo ha fatto conoscere:

Ma c’è anche lo spettatore - termine in questo caso quanto mai riduttivo - per cui la “dimensione” unicamente contemplativa non è più sufficiente...

Nel nostro giardino e museo l’esperienza accade continuamente. L’interazione tra “spettatore” e ciò che di volta in volta viene messo in atto è implicata nello stesso progetto di vita di questo festival. Abbiamo cercato di far diventare lo spazio espositivo - il giardino e il museo - qualcosa di più di un vuoto in cui vagare, punteggiandolo qua e là di momenti e trasformandolo in un set in cui l’entrata in scena dello “spettatore” desse inizio a delle interazioni. L’esperienza è il risultato che ci auguriamo... e che si trasformi soprattutto in partecipazione e comunicazione.

l Centro Studi Dante Bighi di Copparo, la Casa Museo Remo Brindisi di Comacchio e la Fondazione Torri dell’Acqua di Budrio hanno fondato, nel marzo 2009, un circuito detto I Centri di Produzione del Contemporaneo.
I Centri del Contemporaneo operando tra i settori scientifici, educativi, formativi e culturali costruiscono veri e propri bacini di confronto dove, sempre più spesso, convergono esperienze provenienti dal mondo delle imprese grazie al quale si possono sviluppare veri e propri progetti culturali capaci di fondare contemporanea economia della cultura.

The Italian contemporary art foundation Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo was officially set up in Turin in 1995 by contemporary art collector Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo. Active since 1992 at a personal level in the promotion of young artists, Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo saw in the creation of an arts foundation the opportunity to transform her passion into an “organised” activity able to collaborate more effectively with Italian and foreign institutions.

Meshed color gradients and w3c vector graphic

The color gradient is one of  the basic tools available in most computer graphic programs that can be used to reach high realistic results. In the standard vector graphic format ( svg , the graphic format proposed by w3c) there are actually defined two gradient (radial and linear). Searching the web for some news on the subject, I found a post in libregraphicsword on new w3c specifications that implements the mesh gradients as proposed by Tavmjong Bah, one of Inkscape developers. I hope that this tool will be soon available in the Inkskape interface and in browser render engines
