“Isso é mania sua": da imagem aberrante

Abstract

This work presents the diagramming of resources, strategies, references and relational materials for the consolidation of an audiovisual piece titled “Isso é Mania Sua”. In the piece, there's the mixture of different expressive registers that cross varied filmographic references, with emphasis to the figurations of the werewolf myth, together with Television reports and videos that recover interviews of samba composers, so that we compose a relation between the materials through the marking of technique. In this movement, we conjecture a politicalesthetical proposal for the construction of a piece which absorbs thought and that runs through creative processes and census. For such, we conjugated to the artistic program, the proposition of a large research that crossed sociological, philosophical and esthetical data, so that we could delimit the terms in which the intersection between the idea of technique founded in Gilbert Simondon and amefricanidade in Lélia Gonzalez would take place, being filtered by the understending of spell in the work of Isabelle Stengers. All these concepts and ideas are recovered in this work. The document composes a testimonial that rethinks the conceptual development that materializes the bulge of the piece and recalls the filmmaker’s process. This movement is made through the description of research voyages, encounters with materials, establishment of chronology of work, and dynamics of collaboration and work. This work presents, above all, conceptual reflection on the theoretical and practical movements that inform the piece, relating the formative trajectory of the filmmaker to the ideas that the filmic work searched to consolidate.
