Sažetak
Following introductory remarks on visual anthropology and ethnographic film, the qualities of written versus filmic ethnography for application in music and dance research will be discussed. This involves an examination of key issues brought forward in visual anthropologist David MacDougall’s milestone Transcultural Cinema, such as the sensory experience embodied in a person’s body, or the identification with persons in films through the senses, and their critical reflection from the viewpoint of research mainly focused on the auditory sense. The second section dedicated to filmic musical ethnography includes the presentation of examples created by ethnomusicologists as well as of ethnomusicological research subjects which might benefit especially from a filmic ethnography: the sensorial mediation of musical experience, of a musical “Third Space”, and the communication of culturally coded meanings. As a last point, I will look into possibilities enhancing the multivocality of a filmic ethnography which arise during the process of editing.
