The viewing of a film can be interpreted in different ways. One is the objective of analyzing and reconstructing parts of the film. And phenomenology can also be used to find in the minds of the audience (subjectively) what is real (objectively, when the objective is subjective construction) in the act. Both approaches were present at the gathering after the issuance Kip that proposed this morning in the Theatre of Mary Wollstonecraft Bournemouth University.
The film was a short film chronicling a typical day of a lady in a nursing home. The character was inspired by the director's grandmother, lived at a critical time during the first war that would mark his life. The first scene takes place in one shot and shows a young woman enjoying an afternoon of listening field and how far, after a brief scuffle, one shot ends with a man's life. Then this young man is an elderly woman that carry wheelchair by rooms in a residence, in what could be a day in his present life. The camera always focuses on the face of the woman in the foreground and only reflects what happens around the side, in the limited space around the face. First red lipstick to receive a visit from his family. His daughter, his grandson and a friend of his. That kid reminds him of his brother. The grandson speaks to someone on the phone what disturbs. He does not understand the device. In another sequence, and in a different room, family say goodbye. It is evening and try to asearla as she furiously opposed. The left side of the truck and think about running away. Rises and is stopped after a few steps. In the intervening time a bird se ha posado en el asa de la silla, entonces vacía. De nuevo sentada le ofrece a un cuidador cualquier cosa a cambio de que la lleve a casa junto con sus papeles. El hombre dice que lo que el quiere es nada. Por último, la cámara asciende por el tronco hasta la copa de los árboles del bosque donde la joven escuchó los disparos.
A continuación se abrió un turno para el análisis, la reflexión y la crítica. El objetivo era que cada uno extrajera conclusiones útiles para sus áreas de interés. En la sala no éramos más de 10 personas: investigadores en el campo de la fenomenología, sociólogos constructivistas, etnógrafas sociales, gente trabajando en teoría fundamentada, un tipo nerd enough to investigate the narratives that allow digital technologies and myself, interested in mediating socio cross in cyberspace and qualitative analysis (especially ethnographic). The symposium had two poles: Kip Jones as master of ceremonies and Les Todres , co-director of Qualitative Research Center of the University of Bournemouth . Although there were other interventions, which I will transcribe the vision of both. Les has worked especially
phenomenological psychology and integrative psychotherapy, he soon turned to that field. Apparently his interest was multiple. On one side was the possibility to transcend the objectives of the director-screenwriter. Why he had chosen the story and why he had chosen a very particular visual language, minimal. The first question brings to mind the importance of living memory, which for them is the deepest memory exists. That memory embedded in the old drama (the death of his brother while enjoying an afternoon in the field) had also transcended his granddaughter, who dedicated a material part of his life to represent. A phenomenological approach shows, then, how a material fact becomes part of lived awareness of the director who decides to act accordingly.
For Furthermore, I (and this coincided with other learners) introduced the possibility of life represented by traces of a person and this without exceeding the same visual frame. The film was talking about the past (memories tragic) in the language of this (the current life of the elderly). This overlap of traces, as a historical periods, interested more than one / a. The merit of the director had been using a simple narrative-without using the flash-back, for example, null effects and a single focus, all while showing several stories at once, occurring at widely separated points in time.
Kip's vision was that corresponding to a moderator divergent. Interested in the performative social research and how it is carried out (even from the aspect of production), reported low budget short, the ideas of the author about his work and stopped in some postmodern winks: how the old woman painting her lips to welcome family and how then that lipstick was not employed because she was affectionate, but not distributed, the role of modern technology (mobile phone's grandson), a metaphor of social boundaries between generations; or the same representation of the leading actress (really bright) ... and luxury that would have actors such representation of qualitative research to ...
"I hope you used for your jobs," Kip said goodbye. We
