Oggi ero in piazza per lo sciopero della cultura - non solo dipendenti pubblici ma tutte e tutti coloro che danno un servizio pubblico: esternalizzatə, precariə. Un po' di rassegna stampa locale nei messaggi a seguire

Today is the anniversary of the fall of Constantinople, that happened on 29 May 1453. It's a very important historical event, that set in motion the "discovery" of America and other crucial changes. However, I would like to remember that the Venetian fleet could have prevented this, but remained moored at some distance, in one of the most silly displays of incompetence and disregard for friendship ever seen. There were many Latin people fighting the impossible defence inside the walls.

Copernicus Browser is a web app that allows you to tap into a a wealth of earth observation data from Sentinel satellites.

Domani a #Ventimiglia parlo di #ArcheologiaIndustriale con Giovanna Rosso Del Brenna
Chi è interessatə ci trova alle 16 in Corso Genova, nell'antiquarium di fronte al teatro romano. Non faremo una visita guidata all'officina del Gas, purtroppo inaccessibile in questo periodo.

Mi dispiace informarvi che oggi 24 maggio a #Genova c'è stata la prima notte tropicale, in cui le temperature hanno (abbondantemente) superato i 20 °C

#wordpress 7.0 is out and the release notes are all about AI shit here, AI shit there.

Perhaps you know nothing about early porcelain? (you should read "The white road" by Edmund De Waal), or celadon ceramics that travelled across much of the known world from China to Europe?

Anyway, the images in this paper about underwater #archaeology are striking for the variety of products that were found at this shipwreck site in Singapore
