My plans have been seriously affected both by COVID-19 and by delays in documents being processed. As a result, my research trip to Spain will take place in October instead of during the past summer. My initial project was to facilitate and record a series of encounters/interviews between philosophers and filmmakers with the goal of including these conversations as part of the digital component of my dissertation. This is now logistically much more complicated. In my proposal for the research trip, I included the recording of two encounters, one in Madrid and another in Barcelona. The trip to Barcelona likely must be canceled due to mobility restrictions between regions in Spain. I will still be able to conduct interviews in Madrid limiting the number of participants and locations. Currently, in Madrid, meetings of more than 6 people are not allowed. Therefore, I will reduce the film crew to the minimum number of people. I was supposed to designate part of the budget to pay a camera/sound person. Given the limitations, I no longer plan to use this person’s help. The recording was going to be in Media Lab Prado.This is not possible anymore since the venue is closed. I will locate a safe alternative outdoor space, such as the Matadero cultural center or the neighboring Madrid Ríopublic park.
