PULSOS SUBTERR\u00c1NEOS \/ UNDERGROUND PULSES <\/strong> Friday, May 12th Pulsos Subterr\u00e1neos \/ Underground Pulses<\/strong> is a subjective account of communities\u2019 resistance to corporate mining and their defense of territory, life and culture. Calpul\u00e1lpam, Ixtl\u00e1n, San Jos\u00e9 del Progreso, San Pedro and San Pablo Ayutla in Oaxaca; Vetagrande, Salverna and Concepci\u00f3n del Oro in Zacatecas: these communities have very different experiences. For example, Calpul\u00e1lpam has a long tradition of organized struggle that has allowed them to oppose the reopening of a mine that operated for more than 200 years. On the other hand, the community of Vetagrande, where mines have operated since the late 1500s, is now on the brink of collapse due to unprecedented large-scale mining activity. Why do some communities manage to resist the incursion of this and other extractive industries imposed by the Mexican authorities? What is at stake? Elena Pardo <\/strong>is a maker, explorer, and promoter of the moving image. She has developed her practice around experimental cinema, combining the making of documentaries, expanded cinema, and animation. Pardo is also the co-founder of the Laboratorio Experimental de Cine (LEC), a space dedicated to the education and production of experimental and expanded cinema. She collaborates with independent film education projects like Campamento Audiovisual Itinerante (CAI) and JEQO, and is currently a member of the Sistema Nacional de Creadores grant. Tahereh Nourani <\/strong>is a Vienna-based composer and sound artist, mainly focusing on electroacoustic and experimental music. With Free Improvisation, extended playing techniques, amplified objects, minimal live-electronics, and a very slow approach, she creates reduced, organic and archaic sound architectures, an arc stretched between ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Memory Response) and Noise.
