Thinking about Animation : Animism and Ani-body

Minhyoung Kim

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.6 pp.271-284

Abstract
Thinking about Animation : Animism and Ani-body ×

Based on the idea that animation art materializes the world of animism, which is the epistemological approach of identifying the presence of spirits and the action of life within all things, it is essential to comprehend how the body, as a place where life manifests itself so that the ‘plausible impossible' imagery of life continues, follows its own physics in animation, which has been refined through animation history. This paper tries to explain how the animated body is first formed, and then acts out, by analyzing the specific example of ani-body of Mickey Mouse in Steamboat Willie (1928) by Disney.

Introduction: Social Ties in the Era of Digital Networks

Pascal Lardellier

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.1-9

Abstract
Introduction: Social Ties in the Era of Digital Networks ×

The new technologies of information and communication are carriers of a genuine revolution. This revolution was sudden, and changed every area of social and private life. These Technologies Information and Communication (ICT) have been able to find "niches of use", unthinkable fifteen years ago, in the political, relational, artistic, educational and economic areas, among others. This issue of Epistémè invites researchers from all disciplinary backgrounds to give their theoretical views on these 'ICT' now essential in our lives, but also in our intellectual concerns, and in our ways of producing knowledge, both personally and collectively.

Cyberculture

Michel Maffesoli

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.11-19

Abstract
Cyberculture ×

It has been pointed out that one of the keys of Modern Times was the circumnavigation. The explorers discovered the new worlds and expanded the ways of their contemporaries. Can't we say that the discovery of a New World is happening again in our days by the electronic navigation? The rebellion of the imagination is vividly manifested in the role plays, discussion forums, individual home pages and blogs and other 'ICT', where fantasies and other phantasmagoria occupy most of the space and time. In this regard, it is instructive to note that the imagination and the collective dream will become the standards of the cyberspace. Technological development that had contributed to the isolation of individuals, is now reversed into its opposite, and contributes to a new reliance: being always in contact, in union, and being connected.

Les machines sont-elles informatives ou communicatives ?

Odile Riondet

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.21-47

Abstract
Les machines sont-elles informatives ou communicatives ? ×

Why is there a distinction between information and communication? More precisely, is information a discipline mostly concerned with machines, tools, engineering? Based on the analysis of the congress proceedings of the French Society for Information and Communication Science (SFSIC), we shall contest this viewpoint. Among the documents examined we have concentrated on papers concerning technologies and machines. This particular topic brings to light the question of how information and communication are linked in France, and that of the cohesion of the discipline. It forms a sort of junction of our scientific constructions.

Facebook, or the Illness of a Social Network

Michel Moatti

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.49-67

Abstract
Facebook, or the Illness of a Social Network ×

Although it seems unthinkable, and may be even impossible, to connect people without the link of social networks, Facebook appears nowadays like a locker-room between reality and fantasy. Thus, more than 30% of European teenagers stay in touch with «their friends on line» almost 24/7. Close encounter with an epidemic process, that some may call a new plague...

Electronic Communication and Electronic Writing

Fabien Lienard

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.69-88

Abstract
Electronic Communication and Electronic Writing ×

There are many ICTs and they have promoted the emergence of various uses. This leads to pluri-semiotic communication uses where writing is very important. The language writing, from French language in this case, has always covered major issues that are abused by such practices of Frenzy electronic writing. This article attempts to summarize the uses, the electronic scriptural practices and their impact on the French society.

Arts Education in the XXI Century : ICTs, Mediation Devices of Musical Knowledge?

Sylvie Thomas

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.89-111

Abstract
Arts Education in the XXI Century : ICTs, Mediation Devices of Musical Knowledge? ×

The present communication proposed to wonder about the artistic education and particularly music teaching at the age of new technologies. In effect, these last induced deep mutations modified notably the modes of relationship. Today, specialized artistic education of music seems to be preserved from this twister. In effect, throughout long tradition of transmission, a musical educational relationship has been interactive between a teacher and a student. This traditional way of interactive music education is considered classical. However, such classical style of transmission has never attempted the new technologies of information and communication (NICT). Therefore, we will focus on the artistic teaching style found in conservatory could be partially or entirely delegates to NICT? And if in opposition, the pedagogic interaction in her sensible dimension as well as the initiatory dimension could stay at her predominating place? Signed by a musician teacher in a National Conservatory, this article will support a certain state of the art on this topic and on an analysis of ethnographic type.

Penser une «confiance organisationnelle» via les TIC?

Claudine Batazzi

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.113-136

Abstract
Penser une «confiance organisationnelle» via les TIC? ×

Here, the author questions ICTs from the social construct viewpoint in direct relationship to the notions of « trust » and of « confidence ». Indeed, how can the use of ICTs in the methods of internal communications build trust within organizations ? Would certain internal values be the foundation for the building of trust ? If, on the one hand, trust appears to be the root of all collaborative work and, on the other hand, ICTs provide to an extent a framework for exchanges, can one conclude that ICTs guarantee their transparency and create interpersonal or « organisational » trust ? What mechanism(s) explain(s) the transition from individual to shared trust ?

ICT in Rural Areas : from the digital divide to the revitalization of an area

Gilles Brachotte

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.137-157

Abstract
ICT in Rural Areas : from the digital divide to the revitalization of an area ×

This paper questions the social integration of ICT in rural areas. By analyzing the specific issues faced by rural areas, as opposed to urban areas, it reveals the distinguishing criteria and the reasons behind the digital divide which can be seen to exist both socially and geographically. The paper then examines how ICT can be considered as a catalyst contributing to revitalize such rural areas.

Immersive Communicant Environments : the Possibilities of a Multisensory Knowledge Management

Marcin Sobieszczanski

EPISTÉMÈ :: Vol.5 pp.159-172

Abstract
Immersive Communicant Environments : the Possibilities of a Multisensory Knowledge Management ×

The emergence of the new interconnected workspace will produce the effect of new WEB. The terminals of the network will be no more 2D with the reduced interactivity but a multisensory immersive space, with the greater manipulatory interactivity and with various effects of mixed reality. Installations as The Cross-Platform Graphics Library (CGLX of CALIT2) will require new management modes of the knowledge which will generate their uses. We shall wonder about the emergence of new modes of filing, correlation and semantic classification of the multimodal contents and their meta-data engendered by the exchanges using the Immersive Communicant Environments.
