Week One: Exploring pathways + brief

Space, Place and History suggests how we might attach layers of meaning (personal, cultural, scientific, religious etc) to specific locations. We might argue that a space becomes a place once it acquires a history of use.

You are asked to build this project around a location of your choice. Your location may be: a landscape, a country, a town, a building, a room, an object - something / somewhere entirely imagined, or very immediate to you in your daily life. Any of these may have associations with you or others who are close to you. It may also be an alienating, unknowable space that communicates a sense of adventure or trepidation. There may be particular incidents, events or histories that resonate through the location.

Three pathways to explore:

interactive
photography
moving image

20% of project!

Deadline on the 6th and 7th April!

I was able to be put in group with gabie livingstone and we both have the same interest of feminism as we are not able to proceed with our original ideas due to disorganisation and time limit of the DCMP course. Furthermore we are put in a interactive media however we still can explore different pathways include photography and moving image.
