“Não é Só Uma Festa, Tá Ligado?”: Trabalho e circuitos afetivos em coletivos musicais TLGBQIA+ no Sul do Brasil

Resumo (EN)

This paper addresses the operationalization of affective theories in relation to electronic music parties, specifically from a Global South perspective. Its objective is to comprehend the collective and individual compositions faci-litated by the encounter with music as an intensifying element of affect, as well as the necessary efforts for their agency. Drawing inspiration from ethnographic methodology and employing observational techniques and informal interviews, this study explores work, affective circuits, and musical scenes through a prelimi-nary analysis of the 5-year party organized by Coletivo T in Porto Alegre, located in southern Brazil. Thus, the discussion surrounding parties, embodiments, and urban spaces unfolds through an archaeology of the city’s electronic music scene, which leads to a distinct circuit from its inception, giving rise to ruptures and continuities in relation to the aesthetics and identities of these events and their participants.Keywords: electronic music; affective circuits; collectives; LGBQIA+; street parties.
