Since the early '80 Pier Luigi Capucci have been concerned with the communication's technologies and with the relationships among arts, sciences and technologies. He has been a professor at the Universities of Rome "La Sapienza", Bologna and Florence. Currently he is a teacher at the universities of Bologna and Urbino and at some fine arts Academies.
Capucci has published books on virtual technologies and the relationships between culture and sensorial representations (1993); on the impact of technologies on the human body (1994); and about art, sciences and technologies (1996). Capucci has been working on European projects on technological communications. Capucci founded (in 1994) and directed the first Italian online magazine, "NetMagazine", later "MagNet", a research project on the relationships between culture and technologies, in conjunction with the Universities of Bologna and Rome "La Sapienza". He was the founder (in 2000) and director of Noema (http://www.noemalab.org), a website devoted to culture-new technologies interrelations and influences, where "culture" also means "habits", "lifestyles", "communications", "art", "society", "economy", "media", "philosophy"..., while "new technologies" should be understood as having a broader meaning beyond the digital realm. Capucci has been working as a consultant in the field of new media (computer image, hypermedia, holography, telematics, and their applications) with public and private organizations. My theoretical activity is concerned with idioms, techniques and technologies of representation and communication in the communication and art realms, and with the technoscience-based art forms. In the field of applied research he works on the opportunities of social relationships raised by online communications and new media. | |
