Some of my work shared through Academia.edu

14/06/2013

Until now I really had no way for sharing my work, except, in minimal part, Noema. Some years ago I signed to Academia.edu but I never had time to fill it with my stuff, so it appeared like some sort of void phantom. Now I have finally resetted and restarted from zero my Academia.edu profile, and I have put some material there (more stuff as soon as I have more time). Stuff means documents like texts, slides, videos and so on, both in Italian and in English, because I think the main sense of Academia.edu is of sharing real documents.

Here my Academia.edu page.
