Ethnomusicology and
Visual Anthropology
Lab
UNIVERSITA’ DEGLI STUDI DI MILANO
The laboratory was established in 2005. Its basic areas of activity may be summarized in the following points:
– The use of audiovisual media, with an awareness of the implications of their use during the process of ethnographic documentation;
– A dialogic approach to research;
– The presentation of the results of the research mainly via audio, video and photography, attempting to go beyond written text as a form of narration;
– The intersections between ethnographic and artistic practices.
The LEAV was founded by Nicola Scaldaferri (director), Elisa Piria, Lorenzo Ferrarini and Tommaso Vitali.
