She uses performance and collaborative performative design as an organising principle for social practice, ref lection, and new propositions. She has been producing a series of work in the HafenCity in Hamburg, Germany, in an urban area that was once a thriving commercial harbour zone, became abandoned when the container age took over, and is now being redeveloped as a f lagship urban district mixing heritage with f lexible economic models. The following ref lection, which runs parallel to her performative scripts and films, investigates abstract and virtual micro-agencies engulfing the bodies of workers and inhabitants alike in the redeveloped district of the harbour city. In particular, Bruckner unveils the circumstances linking manual labour to macro-data and technological progress from the perspective of automation and the f loating f luxes of algorithmic finance at the core of the twenty-first-century port city.","PeriodicalId":147164,"journal":{"name":"Maritime Poetics","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121827147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She of ten combines sculpture with data and attempts to make ephemeral digital information more tangible or physical. In particular, she has been ref lecting on artefacts and histories of technological communication systems within a maritime environment and has in the past made works inspired by the stories of Marconi, Brunel, and mariner Robert Halpin who was responsible for the laying of the original transatlantic cable. She also engages with similar contemporary concerns in the field of aviation and climate transformation. The following text explores the lighthouse as an originary form of infrastructure1 with links to the ubiquitous barcode and modern, controlled spaces such as the airport. It also highlights the lighthouse as a node in a global network where the ability to regulate and direct light historically enabled safer shipping, which was linked to the advent of the modern age and the acceleration of globalisation.","PeriodicalId":147164,"journal":{"name":"Maritime Poetics","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128083714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Her practice involves interviews with participants originally involved in historical processes, as well as re-enactments from the past through moving images engaging with socio-political situations. In the following discussion, Piantoni takes seafaring as a starting point to ref lect on interconnected maritime stories. Seafaring brings together a variety of viewpoints, experiences and connections among dif ferent worlds. Seafarers brought back to port cities stories, objects, and ideas from their passages across the seas. Navigation with its imaginative and speculative potential has long generated myths and legends. In ref lecting on storytelling at the heart of the port city, the artist draws from its use of imagination, construction and reinvention in the recollection of historical events. In 2015, Piantoni spent half a year in Genoa. Here, she recalls the people and the stories that she encountered in the Northern Italian port city.","PeriodicalId":147164,"journal":{"name":"Maritime Poetics","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123298339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In her videos, the artist interweaves vast cinematic landscapes with documentary footage, SF poetry and academic findings to narrate a changing planetary reality. The artistic gesture of acoustic ocean is that of rewriting a script for inter-species relations and of a mind-body intra-active form of knowledge creation. It addresses the science of a marine landscape by showing the scientific interest in the images and sounds of an altered sense. Acoustic Ocean draws on a range of recent scientific insights in its foray into modes of marine-biological expressions, proposing an immersed image for the complex and fragile interactions between humans and nonhumans, knowledge and instruments in these multimedia landscapes.","PeriodicalId":147164,"journal":{"name":"Maritime Poetics","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126178966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Down the Palatine hill in Rome, next to the church of San Giorgio in Velabro, not far from where Romulus and Remus were said to have been found by the she-wolf, stands the Arch of Janus Quadrifrons. It was erected in the early fourth century under the reign of Constantine, at the northeastern tip of the Forum Boarium, the cattle market of ancient Rome. Sixteen metres high and twelve metres wide, with an archway on each of its four sides, this arch of Janus served as a monument and a gateway to the commercial centre of the Roman capital. The Forum Boarium dates back to the time of the Republic and is strategically located between the Palatine, Capitoline and Aventine hills, and the Tiber River. Janus, the God of passageways, of going in and out, was venerated in Rome from time immemorial. In the Forum Romanum, the temple of Janus geminus had been consecrated by Numa Pompilius, the second king of Rome, in the seventh century BCE. Its door remained open in times of war, and closed, if only very rarely, in times of peace. The God with two faces, one looking outwards, the other looking inwards, presided over the fortunes of a growing territorial and commercial empire. As it was required to channel increasing amounts of goods to feed the capital, the Portus Tiberinus, built under Servius Tullius in the sixth century next to the Forum Boarium, became congested. The seven hills are situated some twenty miles inland from the sea. In the first century BCE, the fortress at Ostia on the coast was further developed into a city. The need for a deep harbour port remained, and under the reign of Claudius digging eventually commenced.1 The Portus,","PeriodicalId":147164,"journal":{"name":"Maritime Poetics","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122374822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
