Hidden behind toilet rolls: visual landscapes of COVID-19

Publications: Electronic/multimedia outputWeb publication

Abstract

During the lockdowns of spring 2020, short videos became a popular means of reflecting on new experiences of quarantine and social distancing. In this blogpost, the genre of the Corona video is approached from the perspective of anthropological filmmaking. Can anthropologists create their own cinematographic interventions into the pandemic, by joining these visual conversations while commenting on them at the same time?
