With Marco Lutzu*
Dealing mai nly with unwritten music, ethnomusicologists have developed various systems of graphic representation of music. Not only music itself but also differe nt aspects of musical cultures have been described through images since the origins of the discipline. Over the years, both static and dynamic images have been used for various purposes: analysing musical performance, describ ing rituals or the making process of musical instruments, presenting the re search results to a generic public, and so on.
The seminar aims to di scuss theoretical issues and practical examples focusing on the graphic rep resentation of musical cultures based on my 20-years research experience in Sardinia, Cuba and Equatorial Guinea.
*Marco Lutzu is Research Associate of Ethnomusicology at the University of Cagliari. He has carried out fieldwork in Sardinia, Cuba, and Equatorial Guinea, focusin g on the relationship between music and religion, improvised poetry, hip ho p culture, and performance analysis.

He is the scientific director and c o-designer of various multimedia museums and exhibitions on Sardinian tradi tional music and improvised poetry, including the Museo Multimediale del canto a tenore (Bitti). As visual ethnomusicologist he directed more t han 20 documentaries on the main topic of his research.
