MobiLab

MobiLab hosted the workshop ‘AnimAzioni Biodiverse: Immaginare, Animare, Comunicare la Biodiversità’.
The course, dedicated to digital animation and free of charge for students enrolled in university or equivalent courses, animation schools, academies and post-graduate courses, was held in attendance in intensive sessions.
Participants had the opportunity to work individually with materials provided during the course, with the aim of designing and producing digital animation clips on the theme of biodiversity.
The initiative was realised as part of the activities of the ‘National Biodiversity Future Centre – NBFC’ project, funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU – National Plan for Resistance and Resilience (PNRR), by the Department of Cultural Heritage – DBC, in collaboration with the Department of Historical and Geographic Sciences and the Ancient World – DiSSGeA and under the patronage of ASIFA-Italy and Cartùn APS.

MobiLab participated in the “Cities and Students: University Residences: Culture, Spaces, Heritage” conference organised by the AISU (Italian Association of Urban History).
The event, hosted by the Università Politecnica delle Marche and the University of Urbino, took place in Urbino from 19 to 21 September.

At the conference, MobiLab presented the latest results on the “student geography” of academic housing in Padua. Using historical GIS and digital cartography, the study explored the evolution of student housing patterns in the city from the medieval to the early modern period. This research, carried out in collaboration with the Centre for the History of the University of Padua (CSUP), is part of the BO2022 project and the activities of Atelier Héloïse – European Network on Digital Academic History.
