narrated presentation of a course on Mesoamerican two items in the collection of the Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography of the University of Turin in the Language Language against project, a collaborative exhibition against Language Language, a collaborative exhibition (CSA, Anna Maria Pecci, 2009). 
An unquestionable merit of the project against Language Language was to know how to put an organizational and conceptual in complete continuity with the previous training proposal Subject of Meeting (Anna Maria Pecci). Already in the first project proposal was given the opportunity for mediators to give new meaning to free objects from various museum collections (while respecting their position and scientific interpretation) by evoking memories that they could inspire the participants by placing them in tune with their particular experience. The stories evoked by objects and organized into compelling stories, they had indicated a possible new monological reading through a presentation, conducted by the mediator, in which the object was loaded with different meanings and interpretations, with emotional significance and context in life stories . Language Language against this perspective has passed making it possible for brokers to realize the memories and the memories evoked by objects, in preparations in which the pieces are museum exhibition in the new location specific installations that are in a sort of synopsis, the summary of the story evoked, giving objects a new dimension of interpretation. An interesting aspect of this development project lies in the fact that the construction of meaning has not been limited to an interpretation of objects as intended, however, have an objective meaning, but was given the opportunity to brokers to act where the meaning is produced giving therefore, other meanings to be presented alongside the usual interpretative dimension, in a dialogic perspective and expografica. In this sense, to voice brokers meant "to give them power," or the power of a language that gives meaning and significance in both diachronic, through the story, both in a synchronic, with the creation of an exhibit that invites the public to monitor the exposure without uncritically submit to pre-established meanings.
socioantropologico From the point of view it was interesting to note that some stories have helped to highlight the inconsistency of the approach typical of the cultural reductionism objective cultures in discrete entities and essential, the result of the experience of European historical formation of national states identifying the inhabitants of an area, limited by specific boundaries of those who have the same culture without grasping the differences within these contexts. Contrary to this rhetoric, rather than in the field of mediation, the stories emerge complex realities that are beyond the reductionism and the logic of discontinuity. Culture is not something that we have, but something we do. And probably this aspect of doing, while restricted in the timing of the project, asked the mediators face a new intercultural perspective in which it was developed from the need to produce a shared construction of meanings guided by the presence of a common goal. In this direction, the cross-cultural perspective has manifested itself more than in an obvious reference to the dialogue between cultures (understood as entities with boundaries of objects) in a dimension which focuses on the interpretation of the concept of interculturalism as a constant attitude that train and educate the complexity.
