Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project has explored the changing relations between researchers and research informants as well as the relations with the wider society that emerged from the production and presentation of ethnographic films on intangible cultures in Africa. This project used my ethnographic films, which focused on occupational musicians called Azmari and Lalibalocc of Ethiopia. The project has investigated the kinds of negotiation and communication between an anthropologist/filmmaker and viewers, including protagonists of the films, that are triggered by films in the ever-changing ongoing anthropological practice, in order to understand the research subjects and to safeguard intangible cultures. My own investigation based on this research project has been published in several academic journals and publications.
