About the event

Dedicated to exploring the complex relation between racialized, ethico-political dimensions of pleasure and practices of freedom, Visualizing Pleasure and Practices of Freedom: A South/North Dialogue will explore concepts of pleasure animated through cinematic and performative means. Informed by queer and recent black critique, conversations will adopt pleasure as its analytic to theorize aesthetic and political practices of freedom that configure difference otherwise. Engaging queries that arise from the overlapping rhetoric of race, sexuality and the sensorium, the symposium will bring together inquiries into relationships between audio-visual media and pleasure: the erotic, the sonic, and the racialized body, attending to the sensuous potential of such encounters.
