  • NARRASCAPE: WORKSHOP Sep 22-26 2008

    [AIMS]

    • A forum to outline the subject of ‘urban narrative environment’ and two parallel workshops to experiment with the use of moving image as its analytical tool
    • Exchange understandings of urban conditions in UK and China through discussions and screenings

    [CONTENTS]

    1. Screening, analysis and discussion of selected documentaries relevant to the project, with particular emphasis on the expressive and analytical potentiality of moving image.
    2. Rationale. The seminars will investigate the relationship between narrative and urban space, especially how space is charge with narratives and how narrative facilitates spatial navigation.
    3. Exercises . The exercises experiment with moving images to express and map the psycho-geography of the city. The exercises involve site-studies, shooting with DV camcorder, continuity editing and post-production. Participants will be divided into two groups: the objective of Group A is to create two intersecting journeys through space (addressing route and situational narratives) and edit the footages into a 3-5 urveymapveyarrative map of Cambridge. mins moving image piece. The Group B works on map-mode narratives, targeting at the spatial distribution of narratives and their formation.

DISCURSIVE FORMATIONS – PLACE, NARRATIVE AND DIGITALITY IN THE MUSEUM OF THE FUTURE

Call for participation and collaboration

Date: 10 February 2007

INTRODUCTION:

We would like to invite you participate in the "Discursive Formations - Place, Narrative and Digitality in the Museum of the Future" pilot project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC, UK). This is a collaboration between several institutions within the University of Cambridge: the Digital Studio of the Department of Architecture, the Fitzwilliam Museum and the Computer Laboratory.

The pilot project consists primarily of three interconnected workshops that will address the relationship between digitality and the Museum of the Future with an emphasis on the role of the moving image. The project aims to provoke interdisciplinary exchange, generate new design ideas and serve as a catalyst for future collaborations.

PROJECT WEB SITE:

We would also like to take this opportunity to introduce http://moodle.expressivespace.org as a space for collaboration in practice-based research. “Discursive Formations” is the first project hosted by this new resource.

PROJECT THEMES:

ubiquitous computing; tangible interfaces

pervasive, online, embodied narrative; expressive space

real-time environments; video and pervasive games

ephemeral, generative and adaptive architecture

 

Applicants are welcome to extend this list.

We shall make public all the submissions on http://moodle.expressivespace.org to encourage discussion and promote collaboration.

We shall ask each participant to maintain online notes and document the creative process in group blogs. The results of each workshop in visual and textual form will also be available online for reference and analysis. We hope that everyone who will not be able to come to Cambridge will still be able to follow the proceedings, contribute online, get new ideas and meet new people.

You can apply to participate in all or any of the sessions.

All participation is free but we shall expect you to contribute to the cost of accommodation if you need it.

We can help to arrange accommodation in one of the Cambridge Colleges at the time of the workshops if requested.
