News by Tattistampa for Autumn 2021

Recommended soundtrack: ‘O stampatore

Ape n° 11

After the launch of the Tattistampa.com website, several months ago, with the beginning of this Autumn we would like to pick out from the catalogue a few “seasonal” subjects, such as the Ape with chestnuts, or the Ape with mushrooms.

Ape n° 47

We also invite you to visit the full Tattistampa collection from the tattistampa.com website. In addition to numerous “Ape” prints, you may now find some FIAT 500 (the vintage model), as well as some starry skies with vegetables…at this point you may choose from 98 different options, in addition to numerous other subjects which you can see if you will visit Wolfgang Scheibe in his secret micro-print shop in the Metalliferous Hills of Southern Tuscany (and if you get to Tattistampa through this article, be sure to let Wolfgang know about it).

Drivers of artificial light at night variability in urban, rural and remote areas

Luciano Massetti, from the Italian Research Council’s Institute of Bioeconomy in Florence, has published on the Journal of Quantitative Spectroscopy and Radiative Transfer and article analysing three years of data collected through the night sky quality meter network deployed since 2016 in Tuscany. The network currently has sensors in Sesto Fiorentino (right next to Florence), Leghorn, the San Rossore Park just West of Pisa, and on the Island of Montecristo. We are collaborating on these topics with Luciano since 2016 with our BuioMetria Partecipativa project.
