For those who understand #Slovak, I had the pleasure of talking with Romano fórum about my long-term research among Romani musical communities in Slovakia – specifically about my film #HopaLide, my project on #RomaniChords, the myth of Romani #MusicalBlood, and – last but not least – why Roma should have a stronger voice in researching their own culture.

The idea that some ethnic groups are born with #MusicalBlood is everywhere.
Roma. Jews. African Americans. Cubans. And many more.
But why does this idea persist? And what does it do in the real world?
In my new article, I unpack the anatomy of “musical blood” – using the case of Slovak Roma to show how this belief shapes their lives.

... and this time, we were lucky to have Vladimir Sendrei – one of the protagonists of #HopaLide – for a Q&A.
He managed to fill the entire cinema with laughter and a positive atmosphere (just before getting on a night train to catch up with another music gig... how significant for him!)
The discussion was moderated by Dominik Hronec who has helped immensely with organising this event. Many thanks to him (and the Edison Filmhub team!)

Here's another video on #RomaniChords, the topic of my #MSCA research project, which has just started...The video was presented at the #GypsyLoreSociety Annual meeting in Sofia last week.
Much like the previous video, it's based on 7 pictures [this time pictures in motion!] and is conceptualised as an introduction to the topic for anthropologists and Romani studies scholars.
