ANFAA is a research group in Alternative Narrative Forms in Audiovisual Anthropology. Our researchers and artists explore subversive narrative structures and audiovisual practices that open up alternative ways of arranging, telling, feeling, thinking about the world, and communicating our ethnographic field experiences.

The scientific-artistic project of ANFAA envisions ways to go beyond dominant and textual forms of representation of reality, by using multimodal modes and methodologies - cinethnographic, sensory, collaborative ... By doing so, we question the politics of normativity, ethnocentrism and hegemony implied in dominant audiovisual and anthropological narrative structures.

ANFAA A*Midex Chair of Excellence is hosted at Aix-Marseille University and IDEAS (CNRS/amU lab)
