Damas de paus: atravessamentos afetivos sobre representatividade trans e travesti na música brasileira d'as Bahias e a Cozinha Mineira. 2019. 105f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Estudos da Mídia) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2019.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/28290The present search seeks to discuss and understand the role of Brazilian music, from a communicational perspective, facing the questions of trans and travesti representativeness in society. In this sense, this work presents itself as a proposal of exploratory qualitative research of the themes imbricated in the problematic, through a methodological path called the Affectanalytic Systematic Immersion, inspired by the concerns of Jota Mombaça (2016), aiming to answer: How the emergence of a dissident music scene centered on LGBT representativeness, specifically trans and transvestite representativeness, affects the demands of the movement and, consequently, contributes to the collective social normalization of these bodies, the political debate and the legitimacy of LGBT population rights. in Brazil? The research has as interactors the band “As Bahias e a Cozinha Mineira”, seeking to understand how people transience their experiences from the representativeness in dialogue with the discussions of gender and sexuality of Jaqueline Gomes de Jesus (2012; 2015; 2018), Guacira Lopes Louro (2016) and Amara Moira (2017), the reflections on the music market of Marcia Tosta Dias (2008) and LGBT media representation, based on the ideas of João Silvério Trevisan (2017; 2018) and Flávia Péret (2011). From the reflections on the ideas of Muniz Sodré (2006), Ruth Finnegan (2008) and João Fernando de Araújo (2013), we can see the power that music has to deconstruct the walls and barriers that effectively segregate, communicating, being medium, message and media, carrying within them these imbrications that I call comusication. The visibility of trans and transvestite people is not enough to get these people out of marginalization, but that it is an important form of visibility to realize that the identities and presences of these bodies need to be humanized and naturalized in the occupation of spaces. Representativity here is the act of these trans bodies being present.Acesso AbertoEstudos da mídiaRepresentatividade transMúsica brasileiraGênero e sexualidadeAs Bahias e a Cozinha MineiramasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::COMUNICACAO
