Work Groups



Work Group 1: Digital Culture, Virtual Communities and Digital Games



This group aims to discuss the implications of the digitalization of different cultural manifestations, especially those around networking communities via computers, as well as productions in the format of digital games and its effects in contemporary culture.



Work Group 2: Theory, Methodology and Research Technologies



This group aims to discuss theories, methodologies and techniques in cultural research as a form of communication, understanding that this reflection becomes necessary as we explore more deeply the process of production of scientific knowledge.



Work Group 3: Advertising, Corporate Image, and Consumer Culture



The objective of this group is to think the dimension of the corporate images, of brands, products and services, using as a starting point the mediated presence of this images in the consumer sphere and its implications in the constitution of senses in different cultures.



Work Group 4: Visual and Sound Culture



This WG is articulated with the theoretical production of Visual Anthropology, an interdisciplinary field that is always attentive to forms and visual and audiovisual manifestations that express cultural meanings. The WG aims to explore strategies of questioning the theoretical advances and the methodological development in research projects that involve the production of data in the fieldwork as well as questioning the afterwards treatment of the data in the creation of narratives about social life and culture. Another objective of this WG is to reflect about the place sound in contemporary society: music, soundscapes, and musical ambiences of different territories.



Work Group 5: Cinema and society



This WG understands cinema as the language matrix of movement that nowadays have been found expanding in the different audiovisual media as a mass media but also understood as art. With the power and capacity to move, teach, entertain and promote the public’s reflection, cinema has the capacity to evolve itself in two inseparable directions: the production and the recreation. Fiction, documentary, institutional, series, etc., this WG is open to research, projects and films that may reveal the society in the film and the film in the society.



Work Group 6: Shared production of knowledge



The group proposes to explore the relation between, from one side, new dialogical forms of production of knowledge in the academic sphere and, from the other side, a closer proximity with communities and oral-traditional knowledge.



Organized by: Arlete dos Santos Petry, Eneus Trindade, Luís Carlos Petry and Nicolás Llano Linares.
