CURRICULA AND DAILY LIFE AS "SPACES AND TIMES" OF INDOMITABLE CREATIONS

Abstract

This article reflects on curricula and everyday life understood as ‘spacetimes’ of indomitable creations within everyday life research. The text unfolds from a commissioned work presented at the Study Group Everyday Life: ethics, aesthetics and politics of the Brazilian National Association of Graduate Studies and Research in Education (ANPEd). The proposal invited research groups to experiment with sensitive and inventive forms of scientific circulation based on the theme of cultural artifacts in everyday educational actions. In response to this challenge, we chose to preserve the script format originally used in the performative presentation of the work, assuming writing itself as an ethical, aesthetic, political and epistemological gesture. Inspired by authors who advocate the literaturization and audiovisualization of science, we argue that the ways knowledge is communicated must also be questioned when addressing the complexity of educational everyday life. Drawing on audiovisual and textual productions created by research groups from different regions of Brazil, we discuss how multiple languages, such as videos, podcasts and written texts, expand possibilities for producing and sharing knowledge-meanings. We argue that curricula and everyday life constitute living educational networks marked by invention, affections and resistances that escape the linear logics of modern science.
