New issue of JAF
Dear all,
Journal of Anthropological Film (JAF) has just released a new issue with five
open-access films: https://boap.uib.no/index.php/jaf/issue/view/459
JAF warmly invites anthropological filmmakers to submit your film for review
and consideration for publishing in a future volume.
This issue includes films from Iceland, Belgium, Denmark, the Solomon Islands,
the United Kingdom, Australia and Japan. The films contribute anthropological
insights through topics related to water, technology, memory, myth, the
collaborative process and education. As in the previous issue, the films
published here span more than two decades (between 1997 and 2022), and include
a self-reflexive, polyphonic video essay, a doctoral research project
incorporating a collage of observation and memory, a film that employs
creative reframings of classical research footage, a collaborative
ethnographic documentary, and a non-linear, non-verbal sensory ethnography.
Bringing together these very different projects, we aim to underline the idea
that contemporary anthropological filmmaking involves a multitude of methods,
compositions and configurations. The forms and approaches of these works range
from the traditional to the experimental, demonstrating the breadth, diversity
and vibrancy of existing strategies within the field.
We hope you enjoy the issue!
Best wishes, Osmund E. B. Grholt (on behalf of the editorial team)
