*1st July - 15th July*

*1 year duration (from 27th September 2012)*

*60 credtis (ECTS)*

Call for Applications (2nd  phase) is now Open!


The aim of the programme is to provide a critical introduction to key
notions, debates and practices in the area of visual anthropology with
particular attention devoted to digital technologies. How do new imaging
technologies contribute in renewing our approaches to images and visual
culture? Approaching visual culture and digital technologies as
perspectives and tools for re(thinking) anthropological knowledge at large
the programme aims at questioning what happens if we, instead of ‘writing'
and ‘reading' culture, start ‘seeing', ‘showing', ‘sounding' and ‘feeling'
it.


Besides offering a central theoretical component a significant part of the
course (36 credits) will be devoted to practical work with instruments of
visual communication. This will be made possible by the access to the newly
built Image Lab which is equipped with technologies for producing and
editing images and sound. This practical component offers the opportunity
to explore the new paths at our disposal for communicating anthropological
knowledge.


This programme is coordinated jointly by the Department of Anthropology and
the Centre for Research in Anthropology (CRIA) at ISCTE-IUL (University
Institute of Lisbon). Teaching in English and Portuguese (with English
 tutorials).


Workshops and Seminars in visual Art and cinema, web design and digital
platforms, installation and performance, ethnographic and documentary film.
