Affect, Knowledge and Embodiment

31/07/2019 by Viviana Silva Leave a Comment

Last week I attended a workshop called: Affect, Knowledge and Embodiment. It was part of a Critical Feminist Arts/Research workshop series that involved talks on participatory visual methods, sociological fiction, and zine making, brought to us by Dr Ashleigh Watson, Dr Laura Rodriguez Castro, and Samantha Trayhurn. What is a zine? “A zine is an underground publication with political messages without censorship. You can express yourself without the constraints of media”  There were two essential activities that we needed to do in preparation for the workshop: 1.   To bring some handwritten or printed notes, reactions, thoughts or scribbles on Sara Ahmed’s recent lecture ‘On … [Read more...] about Affect, Knowledge and Embodiment
