Offers expansive and intersecting understandings of erotic
subjectivity, intimacy, and trauma in performance ethnography and
in institutional and disciplinary settings. Focused on research
within Africa and the African diaspora, contributors to this volume
think through the painful iterations of trauma, systemic racism,
and the vestiges of colonial oppression as well as the processes of
healing and emancipation that emerge from wounded states. Their
chapters explore an acoustemology of intimacy, woman-centered
eroticism generated through musical performance, desire and longing
in ethnographic knowledge production, and listening as intimacy. On
the other end of the spectrum, authors engage with and question the
fetishization of race in jazz; examine conceptions of vulgarity and
profanity in movement and dance-ethnography; and address pain,
trauma, and violation, whether physical, spiritual, intellectual,
or political. Authors in this volume strive toward empathetic,
ethical, and creative ethnographic engagements that summon
vulnerability and healing. They propose pathways to aesthetic,
discursive transformation by reorienting conceptions of knowledge
as emergent, performative, and sonically enabled. The resulting
book explores sensory knowledge that is frequently left
unacknowledged in ethnographic work, advancing conversations about
performed sonic and somatic modalities through which we navigate
our entanglements as engaged scholars.
