Registration is now open for the extension course, promoted by LISA-USP, "The path to Alabê: rhythms of the orixás and Brazilian music", coordinated by Profa Rose Satiko and taught by Vitor Israel Trindade de Souza and Elis Sibere dos Santos Monte Trindade de Souza. 

The course addresses the rhythms of the Orixás, with their dances and musical manifestations, including their influence on Brazilian Music. The motto and reference will be the instrumentalists/priests of the Orixás, fundamental in Brazilian musicality. The dialogues offered in these meetings are based on the self-taught methodology of the Solano Trindade Family, with the fusion between theory and practice, and the proposal of movement, sound and well-being as epistemology. It will be offered from 12/09 to 14/11/2024 , from 2pm to 5pm, in the LISA-USP auditorium.

Launch of the film “Jijet: How we study our corners”

Wednesday, 05/15/2024, 5pm
LISA Auditorium - Laboratory of Image and Sound in Anthropology. Rua do Anfiteatro, 181, Favo 10, USP.

Synopsis:
Tekaru is a young zo’é participating in collaborative research in the context of the activities of the Iepé Institute’s Zo’é Program. He recorded and transcribed a series of songs and dedicated himself to studying them in dialogue with other young people and with his grandfather Kwa’i, explaining them carefully to anthropologist partners. The film follows this research, which involves recording, transcription and exegesis. It also addresses a fundamental stage of study that takes place “inside your chest”, when you walk alone through the woods. While we study, we must remember: never repeat a song.

After the session, a debate will take place with the presence of Zo’é leaders and the film’s directors.

Event held: CEstA (Center for Amerindian Studies), LISA (Laboratory of Image and Sound in Anthropology) and PAM - Research in Musical Anthropology.

Direction of the film: Iepé Institute, Cuminapanema Ethno-environmental Protection Front and Tekohara Zo’é Organization.

Duration: 30 minutes.

The film “São Palco - Cidade Afropolitana” will be shown on 10/05 at the Quilombo Urbano Aparelha Luzia. The free event will start at 8:30 pm and feature a debate with the protagonists and directors after the screening.

Synopsis of the film:
What do African artists who arrived in Brazil in recent years carry with them on their journey? How do the African diasporas dialogue—the new creative diaspora and the one that turned the Atlantic into a cemetery? What stages are occupied, built, and filled with the performances of artists who cross the ocean? Ancestry is updated in performances that construct an Afropolitan present in a metropolis where it is necessary to be bold, to color the gray. São Palco – Cidade Afropolitana presents the city of São Paulo as a meta-stage occupied by artists from Togo, Mozambique, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola, among other African nations, in dialogue with the Brazilian population and its openings, contradictions and tensions.

On April 25th, the film "São Palco - Cidade Afropolitana", by Jasper Chalcraft and Rose Satiko Gitirana Hikiji, will be shown at the Maria Antonia University Center. The exhibition is part of the second NauCine meeting, a partnership between the MariAntonia Center and the Urban Anthropology Center (NauCidades) of the Faculty of Philosophy, Letters and Human Sciences (FFLCH) at USP, that aim to celebrate the 36 years of existence of the laboratory of the USP Urban Anthropology Center (LabNAU). The event will take place in the Carlos Reichenbach room in the Rui Barbosa building.

Schedule:

4:30 pm – Presentation of guests

5 pm - Screening of the film followed by a debate with directors, researchers and guests

Synopsis of the film:
