◆概要
Ethnographic film practices of various kinds from across the globe are entwined with new forms of audiovisual expressions and approaches. These practices detach visual anthropology from its Western colonial legacy and expand the horizon of knowledge creation, storytelling and collaborative research in humanities. The aim of this Zoom meeting of anthropologists/filmmakers from Cameroon, Ethiopia, Mali, and Japan is to introduce Ethnographic films and visual anthropological research activities in African countries. We identify prospects and meet the challenges facing the image-making from/on Africa.
