Collaboration in/through Ethnographic Film. A Conversation
In this conversation Steven Feld (University of New Mexico, USA) and Antonello Ricci (“Sapienza” Università di Roma) discuss the four hour-long films that comprise the Jazz Cosmopolitanism in Accra series. Feld present's his ideas of “dialogic editing” and “dialogic auditing” as refinements of the playback and feedback methods he learned in the 1970s as a student of Jean Rouch. Feld and Ricci discuss and analyze the audio-visual methods and theoryy informing the Jazz Cosmopolitanism in Accra series. Their conversation reveals how a practice of collaborative cine-ethnography was developed over ten years in these four stylistically diverse films about contemporary musical life in Accra, Ghana

Steven Feld, La Recherche comme composition
La Recherche comme composition est constituée de deux essais majeurs de l’anthropologue et ethnomusicologue américain, Steven Feld. La préface intitulée « la tessiture des mondes » nous invite à parcourir un large panel de références et méthodes qui permettent au lecteur d’entrer en immersion dans l’univers acoustique et méthodique d’une forme d’ethnologie singulière. Les références permettent déjà de situer le travail de Feld, puisqu’il y est question de Murray Schafer, Yannis Xenakis ou bi..

Spectral Signage: A Discussion with Steven Feld
This discussion with Steven Feld occurred online on May 4, 2020 for around two-and-a-half hours. It covers a wide range of topics: Feld’s training and background; the relations of linguistic anthropology, semiotics, linguistics, film studies, visual anthropology, musicology, and acoustemology; linguistic poetics, iconic power, and visual form; spectralism and the trace; relationality and interspeciality; the Anthropocene, the atomic bomb, and COVID-19; among other topics. This conversation builds upon Feld’s keynote lecture, “Spectral Signage” for the workshop Sense and Semiosis: Bridging Conversations between Linguistic and Visual Anthropology (September 26–28, 2019, at the University of Chicago, organized by Constantine V. Nakassis and Meghanne Barker, funded by the Wenner-Gren Foundation), as well as the discussion that followed. A recording of the online conversation was transcribed by Emily Kuret and Constantine V. Nakassis, and edited by Meghanne Barker, Constantine V. Nakassis, and Steven Feld for readability, completeness, and context. References were later added as endnotes, and visual images and sound recordings discussed during the conversation were intercalated into the final text

Steven Feld, le bird de l’anthropologie sociale : vers un perspectivisme acoustique
Steven Feld, The “Bird” of social anthropology! Not in reference to the Papuan Hornbill, Raggi's Bird-of-paradise or the colorful dove so dear to his ethnographic heart. We could thus enumerate the hundred birds that fly over Mount Bosavi, sing the Kaluli territory, because Steven would be easily identifiable with all of this avifauna as he has striven to live with and near it, armed with his only microphone, a third hand. Nickname the “Bird” however refers to another bird, very human this one, but just as virtuoso and unique as the birds of the Papuan forest: Charlie Parker. And for a very specific reason. Like this extraordinary musician who felt the need to invent, to add, to enrich the musical world with a new note in order to restore his perception of the world as closely as possible, Steven Feld will invent, add, enrich the world of social anthropology of a new note: sound.The contribution of our Bird will be major: it will overturn the traditionally anthropocentric ethnographic paradigm. Introducing sounds to the rank of words and gestures will indeed revolutionize the frontiers of the anthropological field, literally widen the field of ethnological gaze challenged, not to see, but to listen to the world, to hear the multiple murmurs, words, cries, songs and tears whispered among themselves, beyond them, by the various beings, visible and invisible, present to the observer. With/through sound, the world of humans described by Steven suddenly comes to life, in a different way: it sings itself. Human creativity, the social fact open noisily to the interspecificity of the beings rubbed shoulders with on a daily basis and with which, individuals, whether Papuans, Europeans or Africans, freely combine to make a concert together in the image of Charlie Parker and of his comrades.Steven Feld, Le « Bird » de l’anthropologie sociale ! Non en référence au Calao papou, au Paradisier de Raggi ou encore à la colombe colorée si chère à son cœur ethnographique. Nous pourrions énumérer ainsi la centaine d’oiseaux qui survole le mont Bosavi, chante le territoire kaluli, car Steven serait facilement identifiable à l’ensemble de cette avifaune tant il s’est évertué à vivre avec et près d’elle, armé de son seul micro, une troisième main. Le surnommer le « Bird » fait pourtant référence à un autre oiseau, bien humain celui-ci, mais tout aussi virtuose et unique que les oiseaux de la forêt papoue : Charlie Parker. Et ce, pour une raison bien précise. À l’instar de cet extraordinaire musicien qui ressentit la nécessité d’inventer, d’ajouter, d’enrichir le monde musical d’une nouvelle note pour restituer au plus près sa perception du monde, Steven Feld va inventer, ajouter, enrichir le monde de l’anthropologie sociale d’une nouvelle note : le son.La contribution de notre Bird sera majeure : elle bouleversera le paradigme ethnographique traditionnellement anthropocentré. Introduire les sons au rang des mots, des gestes va en effet révolutionner les frontières du domaine anthropologique, élargir littéralement le champ du regard ethnologique interpellé, non pas à voir, mais à écouter le monde, à entendre les multiples murmures, mots, cris, chants et pleurs que chuchotent entre eux, par de-là eux, les divers êtres, visibles et invisibles, présents à l’observateur. Avec/ par le son, le monde des humains décrit par Steven s’anime soudainement, autrement : il s’en-chante. La créativité humaine, le fait social s’ouvrent bruyamment à l’interspécificité des êtres côtoyés au quotidien et avec lesquels, les individus, qu’ils soient papous, européens ou africains conjuguent librement pour faire ensemble concert à l’image de Charlie Parker et de ses compères
