On Wednesday, September 23rd, the colloquium Hacerse un lugar: mujeres, trabajo y agenciamientos en la música urbana chilena ("Finding a place: women, work, and agency in Chilean urban music") will be held at Universidad Diego Portales. Presenting at this event will be Sebastián Muñoz, CMUS adjunct researcher, and Javiera Muñoz, CMUS thesis student. The Center's associate director, Carla Pinochet, will serve as commentator, and Mauricio Toval-Gajardo will moderate.

Sebastián and Javiera share a preview: "Drawing on qualitative research carried out between 2023 and 2024, we will address how female artists' trajectories are shaped by learning and skills developed through practice, collaborative networks, digital technologies, forms of self-management, and aesthetic decisions. We will discuss, in particular, the relationship between work and subjectivity, arguing that building a career in urban music depends not only on individual capabilities, but on multiple relationships, objects, devices, and collectives through which women come to position themselves as workers and develop their own voice within this musical world."

The colloquium is part of the Psychosocial Studies of Work Program (PEPET) of the Faculty of Psychology at Universidad Diego Portales, Chile. It will be held in hybrid format, with prior registration required at this link.
