Angelantonio Grossi studied Cultural Anthropology at Sapienza University of Rome. Being interested in following the forms technology takes once it is observed in non-Western environments, he is engaged in contemporary debate about digital anthropology, media ethnography, and post-secularism. By locating his research in Ghana, he examines how in contemporary global connected world, apparently different matters like technology and religion are being articulated together by people in their everyday lives and, in doing so, how existing power structures are challenged and/or strengthened. He is part of the research programme led by prof. Birgit Meyer “Religious Matters in an Entangled World: Things, Food, Bodies, Texts as entry Points to the Material Study of Religion in Plural Settings”.
