Society for Visual Anthropology

We promote the study of visual representation and media. Both research methods and teaching strategies fall within the scope of the society. SVA members are involved in all aspects of production, dissemination, and analysis of visual forms. Works in film, video, photography, and computer-based multimedia explore signification, perception, and communication-in-context, as well as a multitude of other anthropological and ethnographic themes.

Word of Mouth

Our vision of Word of Mouth is to explore, experiment with, and furthermore challenge the boundaries of ‘world research’ through the mechanical eye of the camera. More often than not we are communicating by means of ‘word of mouth’, defined in this instance as the communication we have with each other ‘face-to-face’, or by means of other contemporary mediums of shared communication, such as photography or film.
