In recent years, there has been a growing interest in adopting multimodal and cross-disciplinary approaches in social sciences and humanities research. These methods often involve engaging with art, design, architecture, and participatory research—ways of producing knowledge that challenge traditional academic reading and scientific writing. By expanding the methodological toolkit, the social sciences have embraced creative collaboration, giving rise to more experimental forms of ethnography. This shift has sparked a deeper interest in the relationship between artistic practices and ethnography, a connection that has been evolving since the 1980s.
This course will delve into multimodality, exploring its history and the intersection between art and anthropology. Drawing from key perspectives in Berlin-Germany scholarship such as Stadlabor, Amo Collective and Matters of Activity—known for their pioneering work in "more-than-text" methodologies—the course will examine how different forms such as video, sound, artistic practices, walking, public interventions, and audience engagement can enrich ethnographic research. Berlin-based scholars and artists will be invited to share their expertise, providing valuable insight into these creative methodologies. Additionally, the course will offer students the chance to share their own multimodal projects, receiving practical and theoretical feedback to refine their work.
The course will be collaboratively organized with Melanye Garland, artist and european ethnologist, and member of Amo Collective Berlin.
