“…Affective engagement is a person-centered conceptual approach that focuses on the role of emotions and affection for understanding rational thoughts, preferences, and choices. It shapes attachment and belonging in environments where everything is in a state of flux (Barker, 2014). Affective engagement is important to understand artistic and musical preferences and choices (Massumi, 2002(Massumi, , 2007(Massumi, , 2008Oosten, Jochen, & Valkenburg, 2015).…”

Sex and relationships have a big impact on young people's lives. For most young people in the world getting information about sexual pleasure, apart from pornography, can be difficult. And it's even harder if you live in parts of the world where you often aren't able to decide who to date or marry, or how many children you want to have. For this reason online information on sexuality is hugely popular. Research suggests that young people are arriving at sex education sites mostly through campaigns on social media. As not all young people are using these sites it is essential to find creative ways to engage with them in a way that strengthens and builds on existing online sex education. Our recent study used affective engagement as part of a multi-layered and multi-method participatory action research process on online sex education for young Kenyans online. We worked with a group of students from the Sauti music academy, to explore the meaning and relevance of themes that emerged from analysis of online behaviour on the Love Matters sex education platform and off-line research on gender roles and sexuality by young people. Young musicians wrote songs based on the research analysis and recorded these on YouTube. We found that the issues raised by young people using online platforms were also relevant to Kenyan offline non-users. Interpersonal exchange between the young people directly involved in the study, the sexual health experts and international creative team were key to stimulating critical reflection on meanings of sex and love, and creativity in the production of the 15 original songs that were produced during the project. The musicians involved said they had learned how to communicate effectively about sexuality, expectations and affection. Participants also learned how to use their own experiences to connect with people, and most said they realized their responsibility and potential as artists to make progressive social change. Learning on reaching audiences was one of the main unintended benefits for the artists of this project. P. Oosterhoff et al. 1573

Research suggests that young people are arriving at sex education sites mostly through campaigns on social media and paid sites. Whilst not everyone is accessing porn, it is essential to find creative ways to engage with young people to strengthen and build on existing online sex education. In this study, a team of researchers, international project staff, musicians and multimedia artist worked effectively together on mobilising audiences based on research evidence on sex education for young Kenyans. The approach taken was innovative but it was also rooted in high-quality research evidence. This article focuses on two areas of learning from the programme -how research can support a creative team to discuss sexuality in a radically open fashion and how to remain focused when working in multidisciplinary teams.

“…Pero Pere Joan es reconocido también por sus colaboraciones e innovaciones como artista y además como editor (Bufill 1994;Conget 2004;de Guereñu and Manuel 2011;Dopico 2005;García 2010;Lladó Pol 2012). Recientemente, por ejemplo, el artista ha trabajado con el escritor post-poético Agustín Fernández Mallo en una serie de comics que aparece en Nocilla Lab (2009)-el tercer volumen del proyecto Nocilla que además incluye Nocilla Dream (Fernández Mallo [2006] 2010) y Nocilla Experience (2008) (véase Barker 2010Barker , 2014Fraser 2012)-y además ha editado una versión de Nocilla Experience (Pere Joan 2011) en forma de novela gráfica (Fraser 2016;Gutiérrez García Huidobro 2014). Más allá de las referencias al artista que surgen por un momento y luego se desvanecen en los análisis que se enfocan más sobre Fernández Mallo (Henseler 2011a(Henseler , 2011bSaum Pascual 2014), es fácil que los lectores interesados encuentren su nombre hasta en las historias más breves del cómic en España, muchas veces al lado del nombre de su colaborador temprano, Max (Bufill 1994;Conget 2004; de Guereñu and Manuel 2011; García 2011; Lladó Pol 2012; Pons 2013).…”

Este artículo explora la creación de un lenguaje icónico innovador por parte del artista gráfico Pere Joan en su obra 100 pictogramas para un siglo (XX) (2014). Su trabajo crítico-visual refleja el estatus contemporáneo de los emoticonos y los emoji, signos de una creciente integración de lo digital en la vida cotidiana. Entendido a la luz de la producción reciente del artista, el lenguaje analítico visual de Pere Joan funciona como una aceptación de las posibilidades formales señaladas por lo digital y a la vez como una reivindicación de la cultura analógica y la reflexión histórica. Además, la estructura innovadora de las páginas del libro pone de manifiesto la relación entre el cómic y el arte gráfico puro. Al fin y al cabo, más que una celebración de la era digital, 100 pictogramas recupera un impulso ensayístico analógico para recalcar el potencial crítico de toda imagen. Desde el minimalismo formal, eco gráfico de los emoticonos, Pere Joan hace posible una toma de conciencia histórica que simbólicamente llevará a los lectores más allá de la inmediatez sugerida por la lógica del consumo hacia una crítica de la vida cotidiana.
