Cartografías de la cotidianidad: Un estudio de la serie barrio/escuela/sujetos en contextos de pobreza urbana

Abstract

The article debates results of a longitudinal research carried out since 2004 in Carcova (a slum of the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires), through the discussion of: a methodological cache/reservoir made up of a battery of multisensory instruments (Renold and Mellor, 2013), and an analytical repertoire capable of capture linguistic aspects and images dealing with the multiple conditions that involve bodies and things. The reservoir includes: geographic information systems georeferencing (GIS) in order to locate the neighbourhood on the map of the city and its sedimented inequalities; participant observation and interviews with students and teachers; spaces for wording the world through written and visual language (in various formats), trying to break the abjection that usually falls on slums. This article proposes an analytic of series produced in between the lines of the everyday life of a slum: the desire for life, the will to learn; each of the texts, photos, drawings, video, rap, artifacts of research assemble scraps of stories that dialogue one to each other. It is an amphibious methodology capable of generating multisensory data, where the map, statistical information, audio-visual or art production make up layers of located bodies, objects and sounds.
