21 Abril 2023, 14:30 • Paula Sofia Ramos de Sousa Sampaio

O seminário contou com a participação da conferencista convidada Ildikó Plájás (Leiden University e University of Amsterdam), que fez uma apresentação com o título: “InterFaces: Technologies of vision and the enactments of race in governing people and their mobilities in Europe. A multimodal intervention”. Resumo: “Ildikó Plájás is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute of Political Science at Leiden University and a lecturer in visual anthropology at the University of Amsterdam. She studied anthropology and cultural studies in Romania and Hungary, later graduating in Visual Ethnography at Leiden University. Her PhD research, conducted in the frame of the RaceFaceID Research Project at the University of Amsterdam, examined how technologies of vision used in governing mobility enact race and racial otherness in Europe. In this work she also developed and experimental approach that intertwines experimental film clips and written arguments to craft a theoretical intervention into the materiality and relationality of vision and race. In this multimodal format, vision is used not to produce or reinforce, but to disturb and perhaps even undo ideas of racial otherness.” A apresentação foi seguida de discussão, ambas conduzidas em inglês.
