  3. I am happy to have the opportunity to present #HopaLide at this year's #Ethnografilm, possibly the most fun #VisualAnthropology festival in the world.

    Over 100 #EthnographicFilms (s), most of the people in the audience are filmmakers, and this is all set in the atmosphere of springtime #Paris. What else to wish for?

    Thanks to the #CzechCentre in Paris for supporting my stay (again)!

  5. ... as soon as the seminar was over, we moved to a #HopaLide screening in the Edison FilmHub.

    Well, again I doubted whether an #EthnographicFilm screening on Friday night may compete with Prague's nightlife.

    ... but guess what – we were sold out!

  6. November with #HopaLide

    There are so many exciting opportunities to watch my latest film a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ with Romani musicians from Slovakia that I need to make a whole thread about them! Check these out, as there may be one close to you!

  7. ... I'm also grateful for the opportunity to share my latest film, #HopaLide, with my #RomaniStudies colleagues. It's always great to share this kind of work among colleagues and friends who work on similar topics worldwide and hear their feedback!

    [btw, more screenings coming this month!]

  8. Today, #HopaLide reconvened with other #Carpitella films (and filmmakers) in Rome for this year's Materiali di Antropologia Visiva (founded by Diego Carpitella himself in 1985!).

    It feels both an honour and pleasure to be part of such a family of great films (& filmmakers!)

  9. We joined up with the border & continued upstream, along the river Hermance. The border now runs down the middle of it here (here it was formerly along the talweg, i.e. following the deepest bit of the river bed). It is a picturesque and languid river meandering in a rural landscape punctuated by the usual border infrastructure: border stones, disused border guard buildings and rusting signs and fences. #borderWalk #geography #switzerland #visualMethods #visualEthnography #walking

  10. Another Sunday exploring. No snow on the mountains, so the family isn’t skiing as much as some winters. Time to border hop!
    We connected back with where the photo above — showing a border that closes at night — was taken, and tootled on. I love spotting all the infrastructure connected to the 🇨🇭🇫🇷 border. I now have an official list of it all from the Office du Patrimoine but it’s usually pretty legible.

  11. We wandered on along a charming path in the evening sun, enjoying the usual mix of contrasting landscapes on either side of the line: small villas on the Swiss side & rather charmless apartment blocks in France. I love spotting the immediately-recognizable former border posts, often now converted, built in the 1920s & mostly designed by Marc Camoletti: the architect who built the Musée d’Art et d’Histoire. #localHistory #architecture #borders #frontières #borderWalk #douane #visualEthnography

  12. It’s been a while and even though it might seems I’m in a creative hiatus, that’s not entirely true. I’m mostly focusing on sketching as I’ve decided to use drawing as an active research tool for my PhD. Since I made this decision I started to sketch more often around to do a series of tests functional to the ethnographic study I’m planning.
    Here a little preview of my #sketchbook so far.

    "[...] One of the main planned outputs for the doctoral researcher is a 40-minute #documentary, which should be a central strand in the doctoral work, on both a methodological and theoretical level."

  14. Another day writing my “academic comic” on political borders, revisiting “Fenced In” in long form & extending the timeframe. Anyone have tips for not ending the day with a very stiff neck & shoulder? I’m loving the drawing process but I realize that the need to pace myself physically & the looming end-of-sabbatical-deadline aren’t the best mix…
