Multiplier Events 2 and 3: MOOC and The Sounds of Hospitality
The second multiplier event took place on June 23rd, at 10am hosted by Universidad de Salamanca. Given the particular circumstances resulting from the coronavirus pandemic, the event took place online, through the application Blackboard Collaborate. Participants were invited to register online through a Google form set up for the occasion. The event counted on the presentation of the project and brief introduction of the two intellectual products by the project leader, Prof. Ana Manzanas. Later, Prof. Martin O’Shaughnessy provided a detailed presentation of the MOOC, going through the different sessions that it offers. This was followed by the presentation of the Documentary, The Sounds of Hospitality, by its two directors, Parisa Delshad and Michel Gasco. They went through the different stages in the production of the documentary, from the selection of musicians, to the shooting of the interviews in different countries, and the edition of the materials. As guest participants in the multiplier event, P. Delshad and M. Gasco invited two musicians featured in the documentary, Linda al Ahmad, from Syria, and Nizar Rohana, from Palestine, to discuss their experiences as migrant musicians in Europe. The multiplier event closed with a brief Q&A session.
