Wednesday, October 5, 2022, the workshop “Methodological dialogues: The affective turn, and virtual and digital ethnography” was held at the Institute of Geography of the UNAM. Delivered by Dr. Jorge Palomino, visiting from the Universidad Central (Colombia), this workshop encouraged the exploration of the contributions of virtual and digital ethnography to the research of the affective turn.

The workshop included a visual presentation, open dialogue and live digital ethnography activities. With these, the “inquiries around the articulations between subjectivity, the body and affectivity” were exposed, and how these evolve “from games”. Thus, it was possible to reaffirm the role played by social networks in the uses and meanings of the new everyday life.
