is an A*Midex Chair of excellency, hosted in Aix-Marseille University, IDEAS.
We are a team of scholars and associated artists studying and incorporating new subversive narrative structures and audio-visual practices that could convey alternative ways of arranging, telling, feeling, and thinking about the world.
The scientific project of the Chair is to envision beyond western, hegemonic lenses, by using multimodal apprehension - cinethnographic, sensorial, anthropological, photographic, artistic, sociological, textual, political, and poetical accounts... By doing so, we question the politics of normativity, colonization, and ethnocentrism implied in dominant audiovisual practices.
