The two-day conference (June 18th–19th), hosted by the Estonian National Museum and open to the public, looked to widen participation with research presentations and film screenings.
The conference was organised around a combined schedule of panels and screenings around the broader themes of alterity, identity, transformation and sensoriality in the context of the nocturnal. Keynote presentations were provide by associate professor of anthropology Carlos Cubero from the University of Tallinn and the ethnographic filmmaker Jeff Silva who also served as residency facilitator. The conference sought to expand upon the work of the residency through its selected researchers and creative practitioners, exploring further the many ways of encountering, perceiving and representing the threshold-crossing character of the dark hours and its special identity-giving forces within an urban environment.
