Poetic Resonance: Dwelling in the Affective Ripples of Ethnography
This thematic thread presents experiments, exercises, and reflections stemming from a two-day collaborative, practice-led workshop with ‘poetic resonance’.
Amalie Scheel
Amalie Scheel is a PhD candidate at the Department of Digital Design and Information Studies at Aarhus University. In her doctoral project, Amalie studies meat and meat reduction as a case of affective and everyday controversy in Denmark, contributing to the fields of cultural studies of food, social media studies, and affect studies. Methodologically, Amalie is particularly interested in how creative methods like collaging and poetry writing can support and unpack ethnographic understandings of everyday phenomena. A current running throughout her work is a persistent interest in how we interact with the world through our senses, alongside a critical-naive insistence on resisting academic moral judgment of the people we do research with and about. She holds an MSc in Information Studies and a BA in Aesthetics and Culture from Aarhus University.
