Resumen

In Argentine Lola Arias’s Doble de riesgo [Stunt Double]; (2016), tangible and intangible objects are manipulated within interactive spaces to change the notion of archives and to create innovative, lasting records in the interstices between affect and technology. This article examines these new ways to document and proposes that, through them, Arias invents sensichives: archives that embed emotions into the history that produced them. Co-constructed by the artist, actors, historians, and spectators, sensichives are fluid and transferable within and among communities. In this way, sensichives have the power to transform communities and offer them unique tools to confront and dismantle violence.
