La hantise du précédent en photographie. Généalogies médiumniques et formes de revenances dans la photographie industrielle by Pierre LANNOY

“…The materials I rely on in this study consist of photographic series that some renowned photographers (Doisneau, Charbonnier, Wolff, Tritschler, Keetman, Sheeler, Evans, Frank) devoted to several car factories. On this basis, the paper suggests that the haunting precedent is a situation with a dynamical structure, that states of mind are pragmatic frames to be handled with, and that references to predecessors appear in a few of typical forms. …”

Ecosystem Processes and Nitrogen Export in Northern U.S. Watersheds by Robert Stottlemyer

“…A series of ecosystem processes have been studied and related to N outputs. The most important appear to be seasonal change in hydrologic flowpath, soil freezing, seasonal forest-floor inorganic N pools resulting from over-winter mineralization beneath the snowpack, spatial variation in watershed forest-floor inorganic N pools, the degree to which snowmelt percolates soils, and gross soil N mineralization rates.…”

L’ attirail d’un magicien rangé dans une cave de Chartres/Autricum by Dominique Joly, Richard Gordon, Jonathan Simon, William Van Andringa, Stéphane Willerval

“…These objects were hidden in the tiny cellar of a domus collapsed after a fire at the turn of the 1st and 2nd century AD.This set includes three snake-vases, a broad-bladed knife, two oil lamps, fifteen entire vessels (bottles, flasks, plates and jars), a small assortment of carbonised animal bones and smelt glass sherds. Iron and copper-alloy pieces and bone hinges make possible the reconstruction of a casket, a cupboard and probably one or two chests.The text of the turibulum is inscribed from the top to the foot, on four columns divided by vertical lines, each one corresponding to a cardinal direction. …”
