Baudrillard\u2019s critical considerations of simulacra and hyper-reality or Debord\u2019s spectacle are positions which, although they are an efficient diagnostic of the state of matters, do not leave many options for operating in an effective way in the construction of a set if images that determines our experience of reality from other positions, opposing the versions of media power. Thus, the experiential framework proposed by the business conglomerates of communication should be confronted with other forms of treating, narrating and, finally, constructing this certain sense of reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, we are printing an excerpt of Alfredo Cramerotti\u2019s book\r\n\u201cAesthetic journalism: How to Inform Without Informing\u201d (2009),\r\npublished by Intellect, which discusses how the production of truth has shifted from the domain of the news media to that of art and aestheticism, which marks a new approach to the debate of the possibility of the critical potential of art within the aestheticization of the information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The contributors to this issue are Carlos Jim\u00e9nez, Alfredo Cramerotti, Arturo\/ fito Rodr\u00edguez Bornaetxea, Jes\u00fas Aguilera,GenderArtNet, Ramon Parramon, Anders Eiebakke, Erlea Maneros Zabala, Andreja Kulun\u010di\u0107, Daniel Garc\u00eda And\u00fajar, Extrastruggle, Michael Takeo Magruder, Nada Prlja, Nemanja Cvijanovic, Virginia Villaplana and Michael Baers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/issuu.com\/aitormendez\/docs\/nolens_volens_4_cubiertas-para_web?layout=http%253A%252F%252Fskin.issuu.com%252Fv%252Flight%252Flayout.xml&amp;showFlipBtn=true\">Download Nolens Volens 4<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This fourth issue of Nolens Volens has been edited in collaboration<br \/>\nwith Alfredo Cramerotti, member of the curatorial group Chamber of Public Secrets, in the framework of their participation in Manifesta 8.<\/p>\n<p>The subject explored was \u201cmediascapes\u201d.
