Retornos e recomeços: experiências construídas entre Moçambique e Portugal

O trabalho de investigação que envolveu este livro foi financiado por fundos nacionais através da FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia no âmbito do projecto UID/HIS/04209/2013.

As coisas da casa: cultura material, migrações e memórias familiares

Este livro corresponde, no essencial, à investigação que realizei no âmbito do doutoramento em Antropologia Social e Cultural da Universidade Nova de Lisboa e que terminei em 2007. Publicar um trabalho desta natureza quase dez anos após a sua conclusão foi uma tarefa simultaneamente complexa e entusiasmante. Por um lado, obrigou a revisões intensas e cortes substanciais, bem como à leitura de materiais que não tinham sido usados aquando da primeira redação e à consulta de trabalhos que entretanto foram sendo publicados sobre temas afins. Por outro, permitiu descobrir aspetos originais e olhar para detalhes que tinham passado despercebidos na primeira versão do trabalho e reforçaram a argumentação desenvolvida.

The transformation of landscape as as aesthetic idear

The present study seeks to thoroughly investigate and delineate the concept alongside the transformation of landscape as an aesthetic idea. On the one side it runs that nature perceived as landscape remains nothing else but granted, evident or 'natural'. On yet another side, and to some fairly significant extend, this thesis identifies landscape as a sheer idea and concept that is shaped and (re-)mediated in an ongoing process. The thesis examines the role of the observer and brings into agreement that every landscape is a produce of creative mental processes. In brief outline, this approach provides a framework for identifying landscape as being inextricably linked with media from the very beginning of their social and cultural inception. As glowing examples for the paradigmatic shift of the classical subjective vision model culminating in the emergence of a new prototype, the camera obscura, together with the panorama, fortify the prevailing argument that the mode of human sense perception is organised and determined by earlier acquainted recognitions. In this matter, as each and every medium strive after accomplishment, then this accomplishment is substantially determined by overwhelming historic, as well as thriving cultural circumstances. In conclusive terms, this study seeks to show how landscape counts as content of a representation, while simultaneously being a very own medium that specifically carries social, geological as well as historic knowledge. In fact, modern vision shall therefore never be bound to any single format or process, rather it will have to always undergo procedures aiming at reshaping the perceivable. Landscape is playing out its major characteristic, specifically that of being, in essence, a purely intellectual, virtual and synthetic product

A forma do tempo : a timeline interativa como meio de visualização temporal

This thesis takes a theoretical and practical approach to data visualization, focusing in particular on interactive timelines as a means to mapping historical/cultural narratives. It seeks to understand how timelines can efficiently communicate a historical narrative, enhancing the topic’s comprehension whilst relating it to the surrounding context. For this purpose, an interactive timeline on Design in Portugal from 1900 to present, was conceptualized and developed. The research adopted a descriptive methodology. The theoretical framework depicts the basic concepts, models and taxonomies associated to timelines, which derive from the main studies available on the matter. From this, a model for the analysis of three case studies – Idea Line (2002), The Path of Protest (2011) and British History Timeline (2006) – was proposed. The selection criteria shows that they refer to interactive timelines depicting a historical narrative, in addition to being as heterogeneous as possible with respect to the themes presented and conveyed purposes. The comparative analysis produced a set of thoughts, conclusions and principles, subsequently considered and applied in the development of the timeline presented. The results of this study point to the decisive role of visual setup of the time axis and user tasks in the interpretation of information. The effective implementation of the timeline Design in Portugal: from 1900 to present, contributes to the study of timelines as information devices with its own characteristics and capabilities, promotes associated research and theoretical systematization and, on a pragmatic note, helps creating the basis for the gathering, compilation and presentation of relevant information on design in Portugal, providing the academic and professional community with an effective tool for referring and learning
