Interview with Alejandro Grimson: Intellectual challenges for the political imagination
Interview with - Alexander Grimson
- Alina Peña Iguarán
The interview "Intellectual challenges for the political imagination" presents a dialogue with Alejandro Grimson, a prominent Argentine anthropologist known for his analysis of identities and borders in Latin America.

The conversation addresses three moments: the Latin American debates of the 1990s, the genesis of his book "The Limits of Culture", and the analysis of the rise of the extreme right. Grimson reflects on nationalism, crisis of representation, and the urgency of building alternatives to the current political "mess" that weakens democracy.

Beams of light: the cinematographic gaze of Luc-Toni Kuhn
Interview with - Toni Kuhn
- Arturo Humberto Gutiérrez del Ángel
Toni Kuhn's work is a continuity and part of this great tradition of Mexican cinematographers, such as Gabriel Figueroa, Alex Phillips, Jack Draper, Agustín Jiménez, to name a few. They were his teachers, his references, although they did not give him - as he tells us - a visual, photographic eye, because whether you are born with it or not, it is almost a substitute for the language itself, for the multiple languages, which, he says, he learned in his native Switzerland and which he knew, in one way or another, how to translate into images and capitalize it with a reality that Mexico imposed on him. In this interview, Toni tells us about the beams of light that he has captured throughout his long-lived work.

Learning to see and feel the invisible: somatic pedagogy in alternative spiritual practices.
- Yael Dansac
The article exposes a progressive somatic learning process aiming at the production of a sensitive body capable of interacting with non-human agents promoted in spiritual practices of New Age and neo-pagan inspiration. Contemporary rituals performed at the archaeological site of Carnac, France, are taken as ethnographic and empirical basis by considering them as sensory learning spaces where participants develop their bodily attention to verify the efficacy of the implemented techniques. The analysis shows that the main elements that compose the applied somatic pedagogy are the learning of an alternative sensory language, the execution of body techniques, the practice of visualization and the incorporation of somatic imaginaries.
