  • SUGGESTIONS for POSSIBLE SHORT TRIPS to Get An
    SUGGESTIONS FOR POSSIBLE SHORT TRIPS To get an introduction about the area near the conference: Why You Really Should Visit Italy's Outstanding Barolo Wine Region https://www.forbes.com/sites/catherinesabino/2018/10/28/why-you-really-should-visit-italys- outstanding-barolo-wine-region/#7bd3de632f89 Note that the Langa district is best visited by car. Because of its territory, the district is not accessible by train (except for Alba, which is connected to the railway system). However, driving in the Langa district should not be a problem since it is in the countryside and not in a big city. For reference, Bra and Alba have ~30,000 people each. Some of the villages referenced below are much smaller: Pollenzo (a subdivision of Bra) and Barolo have only ~700 people. Furthermore, besides the picturesque hills and the historic castles and buildings, this area is also about food and wine. So you can pair some of the suggestions below with the restaurant suggestions also available on the conference website. There are also several wine tours that are normally organized in the area and, besides the suggestions below, you can just search online for what suits your interest. 1) Tour of the Barolo Langa district: Barolo, La Morra, and Verduno Note: Requires a car. Also, distances are short and so one can break these itineraries into smaller ones as desired. Barolo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barolo,_Piedmont) is the town in the middle of the vineyards of nebbiolo grapes that produce the famous wine of the same name. It is a medieval village developed at the foot of the castle.

  • Teaching Geomatics
    TEACHING GEOMATICS G. Tucci *, V. Bonora University of Florence, Dept. of Restoration and Conservation of Architectural Heritage, 50121 Florence, Italy [email protected] [email protected] KEY WORDS: Teaching, Education, Orthorectification, Knowledge Base, Laser scanning, Photogrammetry ABSTRACT: In the study programmes offered by the Italian Architecture Faculties there is often little time dedicated to the teaching of Geomat- ics. On the other hand there is an ever-increasing awareness that the correct management of the cultural heritage requires that the importance of reliable graphic documentation be recognized; such documentation can be used for elaborating further analyses and for designing conservation projects. This paper presents the results of practical work carried out during the Topography/Surveying and surveying methodology/Survey au- tomation course held in the 2005-2006 academic year at the Faculty of Architecture of the Turin Polytechnic. This work consisted in the metrical survey of the facades of the Valentino Castle at Turin. The castle therefore, not only hosted the classrooms where theoretical lessons were held but also provided the material for practical experience. 1. GEOMATICS AND ARCHITECTURE “Geomatics” is the term used to define all the activities linked survey describes the object being analysed and can be used to to acquisition, processing, analysis, modelling, visualization represent different themes as required. The theoretical content of and management of metric data, which are part of the study the discipline is tested, albeit with the limitations of time and and research process carried out in the fields of remote sensing, the large numbers of students involved, by groups of students cartography, GIS and survey.

  • La Storia Della Metropolitana
    LA STORIA DELLA METROPOLITANA 1936 : Durante il regime fascista iniziano i lavori in via Roma. Vengono scavati 300 metri di galleria. 1960 : nasce l’idea di realizzare una galleria di sette chilometri sotto le vie del centro. 1975 : viene costituita una "Società per la metropolitana". L’idea è di collegare gli stabilimenti di Fiat Mirafiori con i quartieri operai. 1990 : Viene realizzato un nuovo studio per collegare Mirafiori e il Lingotto con le periferie. 1998 : Satti, oggi GTT, riceve dalla Città di Torino l'incarico di gestire progettazione, realizzazione ed esercizio dell'opera. 1999: il 21 aprile viene firmata la delibera CIPE che aumenta dal 35 al 60% la quota di finanziamento garantita dal Governo centrale. 2000 : il 19 Dicembre , a Collegno, si da il via ai lavori della Linea 1 della metropolitana automatica di Torino. 2004 : il 17 giugno , con l'arrivo della talpa “Valeria” a Principi d'Acaja si conclude lo scavo del tratto di galleria da Collegno all'attuale Porta Susa. Il 10 Novembre arriva il primo treno dallo stabilimento Siemens di Praga. 2005 : il 18 marzo , con l'arrivo della talpa “Valeria” nella stazione di Porta Nuova, viene completata la galleria della metro, dalla stazione Fermi, a Collegno, sino a Porta Nuova, a Torino. Il 9 settembre , nel tratto XVIII Dicembre-Massaua, viene realizzato il primo viaggio prova con le autorità cittadine. 2006 : il 4 febbraio viene inaugurata a Torino la prima tratta della linea 1 della prima metropolitana automatica d’Italia.

    MUSEOLOGY AND EGYPTIAN MATERIAL CULTURE MUSEO EGIZIO, TURIN (ITALY) Course ID: ARCH 365AD June 23 ‒ July 29, 2018 FIELD SCHOOL DIRECTOR: Dr. Hans Barnard, MD PhD, Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at UCLA ([email protected]) INTRODUCTION The collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts kept in the Museo Egizio in Turin (Piedmont, Italy) is among the most important in the world. In 1824, King Charles Felix (1765‒1831) of the House of Savoy—that was ruling Savoy, Piedmont, Aosta and Sardinia from Turin at the time—acquired the collection accumulated by Bernardino Drovetti (1776‒1852), the French consul to Egypt. Once in Turin it was housed in a large building in the center of town where it resides until today. The collection was expanded with the purchase of more than 1200 objects gathered by Giuseppe Sossio, in 1833, and the more than 35,000 objects excavated and purchased by Ernesto Schiaparelli (1856‒1928) between 1900 and 1920. In the 1960s, the Nubian Temple of Ellesiya was presented by the Egyptian to the Italian government—to recognize their assistance during the UNESCO campaign to save the Nubian monuments—and rebuilt in the Museo Egizio. Next to this temple, important constituents of the collection include the Old Kingdom Tomb of the Unknown, the New Kingdom Tomb of Kha and Merit, several complete copies of the Book of the Dead, the Turin List of Kings, and the Turin Papyrus Map. The Fondazione Museo delle Antichità Egizie was established in 2004 as the result of an innovative configuration blending private and public funding, which is an experiment in museum management in Italy.

Non è un caso che la proposta sia la musica, che sa parlare direttamente a tutti, oltre le frontiere linguistiche, culturali e geografiche, ed è bello che dopo l’estate a ritornare, puntuale, sia MITO SettembreMusica, che nella risposta del pubblico di Torino e Milano si conferma ogni anno curioso e accattivante nelle novità e nel riproporre i classici. Conferme di grandi orchestre e grandi interpreti, dall’inaugurazione con la Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, Zubin Mehta e Martha Argerich, al ritorno di Yuri Temirkanov con la sua Filarmonica di San Pietroburgo, con la Filarmonica della Scala e l’Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della Rai che ben contribuiscono a incarnare nel prestigio e nelle proposte artistiche l’internazionalità del tema di questa edizione di MITO: Geografie. Novità ricorrenti nella scelta della direzione artistica di promuovere in gran parte dei programmi prime esecuzioni, più di 20, e a contare comunque un centinaio di autori viventi tra compositori e arrangiatori nei 128 concerti e spettacoli offerti alle città e ai territori di Milano e Torino.
