Laura Risk and Nic Gareiss curating the #PerformingResearch series at this NAFCo. To illustrate the strand Shihan de Silva Jayasuriya, a Senior Research Fellow at the University of London, gave a short talk on Baila. This is a Sri Lankan, and Portuguese influenced, music form. Her husband, Hemal Jayasuriya, provided some examples of singing (unfortuately totally inaudable) and the dance moves.
