Summary:
AMAA reveals their work 10 years after the founding of the studio: a concise narration by Natalie Donat-Cattin aims at providing a model to interpret the studio’s approach over the years. The concept of the ''Seemingly simple'' embraces the comprehensive research and frames the process, focusing on the attention to tradition, historical memory, the mutual influence of the arts, the craftsmanship involved in the use of materials. These subjects seem to strengthen a deep connection with the regional context and with its renowned references. They translate into each individual project with the ambitious intention to constitute a new stratification in addition to the complex, existing memory of the territory. Images, drawings and words are put together uninterruptedly, graphically assembled by Lorenzo Mason Studio, offering cause for reflection on the formal outcome achieved by AMAA so far. Loose thoughts, open to a continuously evolving future, which is not familiar with the word 'ending': the conclusion of a process does not necessarily lead to a definite end. Rather, it may result in new developments.

Summary:
For almost a decade, Ana Anahory and Felipa Almeida had an the interior design studio (AnahoryAlmeida studio) which led to a unique opportunity to discover and visit Portuguese family houses, with stories and beauty that deserved to be portrayed. Since then, time has passed and with the growth of tourism in our country, many of these houses ended up being transformed into hotels, vacation rentals, airbnbs and rural hotels, as it was too expensive to keep them just as family homes. This passion for these houses and their unrepeatable identity convinced them that this could be a project where the studio could work together again, photographing the properties that they still managed to find so that at least their visual memory didn't get lost. Thiis book wants to pay homage to a memory, a Portuguese savoir-faire and taste that is disappearing with the massification of design, objects and furniture. This book pretends to be a homage to Portuguese family houses, with stories and beauty that deserved to be portrayed.

Summary:
In "Archiveology" Catherine Russell uses the work of Walter Benjamin to explore how the practice of archiveology-the reuse, recycling, appropriation, and borrowing of archival sounds and images by filmmakers-provides ways to imagine the past and the future.

Summary:
In "Archiveology" Catherine Russell uses the work of Walter Benjamin to explore how the practice of archiveology-the reuse, recycling, appropriation, and borrowing of archival sounds and images by filmmakers-provides ways to imagine the past and the future. Noting how the film archive does not function simply as a place where moving images are preserved, Russell examines a range of films alongside Benjamin's conceptions of memory, document, excavation, and historiography. She shows how city films such as Nicole Vedres's Paris 1900 (1947) and Thom Andersen's Los Angeles Plays Itself (2003) reconstruct notions of urban life and uses Christian Marclay's The Clock (2010) to draw parallels between critical cinephilia and Benjamin's theory of the phantasmagoria. Russell also discusses practices of collecting in archiveological film and rereads films by Joseph Cornell and Rania Stephan to explore an archival practice that dislocates and relocates the female image in film. In so doing, she not only shows how Benjamin's work is as relevant to film theory as ever; she shows how archiveology can awaken artists and audiences to critical forms of history and memory.

Summary:
In Evocative Objects, Turkle collects writings by scientists, humanists, artists, and designers that trace the power of everyday things. These essays reveal objects as emotional and intellectual companions that anchor memory, sustain relationships, and provoke new ideas. These days, scholars show new interest in the importance of the concrete. This volume's special contribution is its focus on everyday riches: the simplest of objects - an apple, a datebook, a laptop computer - are shown to bring philosophy down to earth. The poet contends, "No ideas but in things." The notion of evocative objects goes further: objects carry both ideas and passions. In our relations to things, thought and feeling are inseparable. Whether it's a student's beloved 1964 Ford Falcon (left behind for a station wagon and motherhood), or a cello that inspires a meditation on fatherhood, the intimate objects in this collection are used to reflect on larger themes - the role of objects in design and play, discipline and desire, history and exchange, mourning and memory, transition and passage, meditation and new vision.

Summary:
Buildings inhabit and symbolize time, giving form to history and making public space an index of the past. Photographs are made of time; they are literally projections of past states of their subjects. This visually striking meditation on architecture in photography explores the intersection between these two ways of embodying the past. Photographs of buildings, Joel Smith argues, are simultaneously the agents, vehicles, and cargo of social memory.
