(African proverb) Mapping Ambiance: Abstract – English “Urban space is not a predefined and auto-regulated research object but it gives space to a wide range of approaches that contribute to define it” (Grosjean M., Thibaud, J.-P. 2001). Researches investigating ambiance look at the urban space under different point of views. The topic is studied by different disciplines, such as aesthetics, architecture, urban studies and urban ecology, anthropology, ethnography, cultural geography, sociology and spatial semiology. A Jean-Paul Thibaud (2011) affirms, ambiance attunes every day’s urban atmosphere and has the ambition to be the bridge between sensory, spatial and social dimension composing the urban environment. The aim of the dissertation research is to highlight common approaches (both theoretical and practical) that different disciplines use to study ambiance in order to foster the interdisciplinary collaboration. To better understand strategies adopted by different research fields studying ambiance, a method of analysis based on interviews was defined and tested on a selection of 20 scholars belonging to the national and international academic environment and dealing with different disciplines. The interview considers issues related both to theories and practices adopted by researchers to investigate ambiance: the experts were asked to explain the theoretical approach and analytical methods and to argue them using practical examples and cases study. Moreover, during the interviews, the experts were asked to rough out a possible procedure of investigation of the Ambiance of an urban context characterized by the presence of a university campus. Finally, they recommended a range of relevant authors to interview, specific bibliographic references and case studies. The comparative analysis of the interviews, done using a qualitative content analysis, enabled the composition of a list of key concepts regarding the theories of ambiance and a list of methods and tools able to investigate it, under different perspectives: to capture, to analyze and to represent the ambiance of a place. The two analysis have then been merged as some methods and tools are the direct answer to theoretical issues. The relationship between theories and practices of ambiance represented the basis for the elaboration of an interactive platform which has the aim of communicate and portray the research outcomes through its navigation. This platform has the aim of becoming an useful supporting tool for researchers dealing with the study of the physical ambiance and to encourage the the collaboration between scholars coming from different disciplines and countries. The overall outcome of the research aims at sharing the results in the academic debate at the transnational level: for this reason Mapping Ambiance was (and it is going to be) presented in different universities. The aim that this research would like to reach is Mapping Ambiance to become a useful reference tool to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, through the implementation of the interactive platform with contributions of other scholars. Mapping Ambiance is part of a wider research carried out by an international and multidisciplinary team, involving research laboratories working within the themes of multisensory perception and experiential simulation, namely Laboratorio di Simulazione Urbana “Fausto Curti” (DAStU, Politecnico di Milano, Milano – Italy) and CRENAU (UMR 1563 AAU CNRS/MCC/ECN Nantes – France), and the Department of Cultural Heritage and Environment (UniMi, Milano - Italy). Mapping Ambiance: Abstract – Italian “Lo spazio urbano non è un oggetto di ricerca precostituto e che si regola autonomamente, ma da luogo a una grande diversità di approcci che lo definiscono a loro volta” (Grosjean M., Thibaud, J.-P. 2001). Le ricerche che si occupano di ambiance investigano l’ambiente urbano da diversi punti di vista, infatti il tema viene affrontato, tra le altre, nelle discipline che si occupano di estetica, architettura, urbanistica, ecologia urbana, antropologia, etnografia, geografia culturale, sociologia e semiologia spaziale. Nelle parole di Jean-Paul Thibaud, (2011) l’ambiance conferisce un tono all’atmosfera urbana di ogni giorno e ha l’ambizione di essere il ponte tra le dimensioni sensoriali, spaziali e sociali dell’ambiente urbano. Lo scopo della tesi di ricerca è quello di evidenziare gli approcci comuni tra le discipline, sia teorici che applicativi, in modo da individuare connessioni che favoriscano la collaborazione tra le diverse prospettive di ricerca. Per meglio comprendere le strategie adottate dai diversi settori coinvolti nella ricerca sulle ambiance, è stato strutturato un metodo di indagine basato su interviste a studiosi nazionali ed internazionali che afferiscono a diverse discipline. L’analisi dei dati raccolti ha consentito di formulare un primo quadro ricognitivo degli approcci e pratiche prevalenti. Il campione di riferimento è composto da 20 esperti provenienti da sei discipline diverse e cinque nazioni Europee. L’intervista affronta tematiche sia teoriche che metodologiche, strategie e pratiche adottate nello studio delle ambiances: agli esperti è stato chiesto di spiegare il proprio approccio concettuale e di analisi, nonchè di argomentarlo con degli esempi pratici. È stato anche chiesto di definire una possibile procedura d’indagine rispetto a un caso studio dato inerente a un campus universitario localizzato all’interno della città. Infine, è stato chiesto di suggerire del materiale bibliografico inerente alle questioni trattate nell’intervista e di suggerire altri esperti da intervistare. L’analisi comparativa delle interviste, basata su uno studio qualitativo dei contenuti, ha permesso di redigere una lista di concetti chiave per ogni autore e una lista di parole chiave riguardante i metodi e gli strumenti utilizzati per catturare, analizzare e rappresentare l’ambiance di un luogo. Queste due elenchi ragionati sono in parti collegati, infatti alcuni strumenti e modalità applicative rispondono ad esigenze teoriche. La descrizione e relazione tra concetti teorici interdisciplinari riguardanti l’ambiance, nonché i metodi per investigarla, rappresentano la base per la realizzazione di una piattaforma interattiva che ha lo scopo di comunicare e rappresentare i risultati della ricerca attraverso la sua navigazione. La piattaforma mira ad essere un utile strumento di supporto per i ricercatori impegnati nello studio dell’ambiente fisico e a favorire la diffusione di un linguaggio comune che agevoli la collaborazione tra esperti provenienti da diverse discipline e nazioni. La ricerca ha come obiettivo ed esito la condivisione di questi risultati nel dibattito accademico internazionale; per questo motivo è stata e verrà presentata in diverse sedi accademiche. La speranza è che Mapping Ambiance divenga un riferimento utile per favorire la collaborazione interdisciplinare e che venga ulteriormente sviluppata, anche attraverso l’implementazione della piattaforma interattiva, in modo da accogliere una più collezione ricca di contributi di diversi esperti. Mapping Ambiance si inserisce in una ricerca condotta da un team multidisciplinare e internazionale, che vede coinvolti diversi centri di ricerca che già da tempo trattano il tema della percezione multisensoriale e della simulazione esperienziale. I centri di ricerca coinvolti sono il Laboratorio di Simulazione Urbana “Fausto Curti” (DAStU, Politecnico di Milano), CRENAU (UMR 1563 AAU CNRS/MCC/ECN Nantes – Francia) e il dipartimento di Studi Umanistici dell’Università degli Studi di Milano.
