Over the 16 pages, Gianluigi Toccafondo gives us his version of one of the great crime writer's most famous tales, published for the first time in 1841. A macabre double crime takes place in a Parisian apartment. Ferocious and unexplainable, it can only be solved by brilliant detective, Auguste Dupin. The lugubrious details of the story are transferred to an unprecedented black and white issue of Un Sedicesimo. The pages are crowded with quick ink strokes, differing shades of tempera and daubs of colour, to recreate in dark and urgent images the murky atmosphere of the tale.

''Toxic Atmospheres'' consists in a different approach to space and bodies to the strictly physical one usually described in The Funambulist. Its editorial argument draws on the concepts of “being-in-the-breathable” (Peter Sloterdijk), “the weather” (Christina Sharpe), and “combat breathing” (Frantz Fanon) to resolutely politicize what is usually approached through an(...)

Summary:
We barely talk about them and seldom know their names. Philosophy has always overlooked them; even biology considers them as mere decoration on the tree of life. And yet plants give life to the Earth: they produce the atmosphere that surrounds us, they are the origin of the oxygen that animates us. Plants embody the most direct, elementary connection that life can(...)

Summary:
We barely talk about them and seldom know their names. Philosophy has always overlooked them; even biology considers them as mere decoration on the tree of life. And yet plants give life to the Earth: they produce the atmosphere that surrounds us, they are the origin of the oxygen that animates us. Plants embody the most direct, elementary connection that life can establish with the world. In this highly original book, Emanuele Coccia argues that, as the very creator of atmosphere, plants occupy the fundamental position from which we should analyze all elements of life. From this standpoint, we can no longer perceive the world as a simple collection of objects or as a universal space containing all things, but as the site of a veritable metaphysical mixture. Since our atmosphere is rendered possible through plants alone, life only perpetuates itself through the very circle of consumption undertaken by plants. In other words, life exists only insofar as it consumes other life, removing any moral or ethical considerations from the equation. In contrast to trends of thought that discuss nature and the cosmos in general terms, Coccia’s account brings the infinitely small together with the infinitely big, offering a radical redefinition of the place of humanity within the realm of life.

Summary:
In Manhattan Atmospheres , David Gissen explores the rise of the “late-modern” architectural environment as a form of “socio-nature” during New York City’s crisis years. The period between the mid-1960s and early 1980s in New York City has long been a case-study in the collapse of urban networks. Images of blighted buildings, degraded landscapes, and collapsed(...)

The period between the mid-1960s and early 1980s in New York City has long been a case-study in the collapse of urban networks. Images of blighted buildings, degraded landscapes, and collapsed infrastructure typify the way this period in the city have been represented. But rather than a site of urban collapse, the ambition of New York City’s built environment continued, albeit inside the environments of late-modern architectural space.

Summary:
Between 1900 and 1950 the British state amassed a huge collection of over 800 historic buildings, monuments, and sites and opened them to the public. This engaging book explains why the extraordinary collecting frenzy took place, locating it in the fragile and nostalgic atmosphere of the interwar years, dominated by neo-romanticism and cultural protectionism.

The meteorology of Pietro Corraini is an abstract science applied to an atmosphere stirred by coloured geometric currents. Coloured lines, concentric circles, stars and asterisks are all responsible for how the weather will be in an imaginary place on a day that does not exist. Issue 30 of Un Sedicesimo is dedicated to this abstract forecast!
