Think of it as visual anthropology about a vodoolike spiritual practice which blossoms in Brazil and is now an indigenous religion.

    Dead Birds
    I've been trying to see this legendary film for years. It captures ritual warfare between tribes of farmers in Papua New Guinea. The war is played out on a weekly basis, and could almost be called sport except the warriors usually kill one person a week. Filmed in an ancient agricultural society, yet one that lacked contact with the rest of the world, it could have been shot 3,000 years ago. Visually stunning, almost poetic rather than anthropological, this record presents a timeless tableaux of distant "otherness." Yet, as the film unrolls we see the familiar as well. It was filmed in 1961 in the very remote highlands of the Dani civilization in the Grand Baliem Valley of Papua New Guinea. At that time this valley was the last place on earth not to be colonized by Europe. Here a group of remarkable young filmmakers documented a cultural expression so strange that it seems unbelievable now that it has disappeared. Hundreds of men from each tribe would line up in sides on a vast grassy field - so everyone could watch to have weekly skirmishes using spears and arrows. It was true war in that no one in the villages was safe. If men could kill a woman or child who wandered too close to the border field, they would. On the other hand it was ritualistic; they would not fight if it was raining or cold. Each death of a tribe member had to be atoned by another death from the other side. But to stop the game of killing altogether was unthinkable.

Visual Anthropology Review
MISSION STATEMENT As the journal of the Society for Visual Anthropology, Visual Anthropology Review promotes the discussion of visual studies, broadly conceived. Within its breadth, visual anthropology includes both the study of visual aspects of human behavior and the use of visual media in anthropological research, representation and teaching. The journal welcomes articles, reviews and commentary on the use of multimedia, still photography, film, video and non-camera generated images, as well as on visual ideologies, indigenous media, applied visual anthropology, art, dance, gesture, sign language, human movement, museology, architecture and material culture.

Visual Anthropology
Introduction Visual anthropology traces its roots to the advent of modem photographic (and sound) technology invented in Europe and the United States; its founders were Alfred Cort Haddon, Baldwin Spencer, Franz Boas, Marcel Griaule, Gregory Bateson, and Margaret Mead, among others. The term "visual anthropology," however, was coined only after Word War II and became associated with the idea of using cameras to make records about culture (Worth 1980:7). In Europe, visual anthropologists have focused almost exclusively on ethnographic film. In the United States, all visual formats and media developed for teaching, recording, research, and analysis are considered part of visual anthropology. This is an issue-, method-, and theory-oriented chapter. What has come to be known as the humanistic orientation is not posed here in a polarity of humanistic/ scientific contrasts. Instead, an overview of the various methods in visual anthropology and a critique of the diverse anthropological approaches to the visual medium includes humanistic and other orientations. Also addressed here is the non-Western critique of the Western tradition of visual anthropology, which brings out pertinent issues of cross-cultural representationality.

VISUAL ANTHROPOLOGY
I was doing photography "professionally" at age 14 with a home darkroom and my trusty Yashica "D." At 17 I opened our second photographic studio with a partner. By age twenty I was running the business on my own and was still in love with photography. It was clear by then though that I couldn't realize my ambition to go to university while running a business so I decided to close the studio and study full-time. My interest in photography merged with a fascination for visual anthropology and I was delighted to discover, when I joined the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Carleton that I would get to teach visual anthropology (54.317) once in a while. I'll be offering this course in 1997-98 (Professor Bruce Cox often offers this course too). This page is very much under construction but here are a few links to get on with.

A common introduction to anthropology is through ethnographic film. Readers may well be familiar with television series such as Disappearing World and Under the Sun. These films are made by anthropologists or professional filmmakers and show life in non-European societies. They are valuable in revealing a more rounded representation of the issues that anthropologists normally investigate particularly with respect to ritual, music, dance and other areas where a purely written description cannot convey the richness of the experience. Teachers of anthropology have also found film to be valuable for conveying a sense of the work that anthropologists actually do in the field. However, visual anthropology is much more than ethnographic film. It encompasses a much wider study of visual systems. Most anthropologists produce visual representations in the course of their work (often photographs, but also videos, maps, drawings and diagrams) and all societies make visible aspects of their social life and their cultural understandings. Visual anthropology is concerned with understanding the production and consumption of all these forms. Visual anthropology clearly overlaps with the anthropology. Editor:

I am also an affiliate in the Latin American Studies Center, the Program in Linguistics, the Vision center of the University of Florida Medical School, the Center for Neuropsychology (also of the Medical School). I was a Fulbright scholar at the Copenhagen University's Institute for Anthropology (1991-92) and a visiting exchange scholar at the Universidad Complutense in Madrid, Spain (1985-86). I have also lectured and taught in Austria, Lithuania, Sweden, Norway, Mexico, El Salvador, and Guatemala. I speak Spanish and Yucatec Maya in addition to English, and have at times made great attempts to speak other European languages, including Lithuanian, Danish, German, and Portuguese. My interests focus on the use of video and computers in anthropology, indigenous rights, and applied anthropology medical, educational, and political. Recent projects that students and I have been working on include a study of teenage tobacco initiation and use (with Brian Page, University of Miami Department of Anthropology and School of Medicine subcontract); the Ethnohistory of the Kingsley Plantation (with Antoinette Jackson), National Park Service funding; Migrant Housing Policy in Florida, funded through the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs). I have also given workshops on visual anthropology and human rights for CIESAS-Chiapas, on visual anthropology for INAH-Mexico City, and for cultural heritage programs for many Native American groups.

VISUAL ANTHROPOLOGY
at
Concordia University In looking at the history of ethnographers’ visual documentation of non-Western peoples as well as indigenous self-representations, this course primarily concerns itself with power, representation, and the development of professional anthropology, focusing on photography and film. This course explores paradigms and case studies in the history of visual anthropology by highlighting the stylistic, social scientific, commercial and political agendas that influence the production of visual documents. Starting with colonial exhibitions of “exotic natives,” the course progresses to classic and contemporary ethnographic film with a focus on Curtis, Flaherty, Mead, Gardner, Rouch and MacDougall.

Careers: Visual anthropology as a field of study?
An undergraduate in Canada recently wrote me asking whether visual anthropology was a valid field of study for an M.A. or Ph.D. I won't post her original letter here, but here is an excerpt of my response (from which you can deduce her queries): Dear XXX - Thank you for your e-mail. I apologize that I will not be able to reply at length as I am about to leave for the field. I took the opportunity to look at your website. Your photographs are quite well done, evocative and emotional. What is ethnographic photography? As with regular print ethnography, there is no single type. However, as with written ethnography there is a purpose. Look through the print ethnographies that you have found particularly evocative (one of my favorites is Lila Abu Lughod's Veiled Sentiments ) and ask what the author is trying to do in the work. Then ask yourself how you would do this in the medium of your choosing.
