Actually Being There: The Cultural Experience Workshop

For the first time, the IWIPS conference will take place outside Europe, the US or Canada. Taking place this year in Southern Mexico, in the beautiful city of Mérida and its surroundings, this workshop is an opportunity to immerse oneself systematically into the richness and diverse variety of its culture. The workshop will use practices and techniques of visual ethnography in order to capture, through digital photography, daily life scenes and details which would give us an outsider look into the local and inner culture, and along with its posterior analysis, the idea to better understand the object of study.
