Assignment
1. Group Assignment.
You will work in a group of five or six. Your group will be assigned a location in the proximity of Stockholm, reachable by public transport. Thursday is scheduled for the field trip, so take time to plan the trip to your study object. Call ahead and try to arrange that you can get entry to your building. We don’t have opinion on modes of transportation, feel free to get there by bus, car, bike or train. Just make sure that you make the trip as a group.
Be advised to dress accordingly to the weather. Also, bring your own lunch and sufficient material: pens + paper, crayons + colours, according to personal preference, fully charged camera, tape measure and other things necessary for a job well done.
a) Document the excursion itself: the way to your location, places, atmospheres et cetera. Technique and media: at your own discretion
b) Describe and document one or more buildings at your location.
c) When, what, who and why: research the historical context of the building.
d) Think and discuss on the quality of experiencing spatial environments in person and as an image (or other kind of representations). From a contextual scale to 1:1, life size. Formulate a text of ten (or so) paragraphs/points.
e) find a reference object and comment on The relationship.
Formulate a tagline to your study object.
f) Present your work at the assigned space on the wall of the Red Tent. Your group’s space is expected to be a work-in-progress, i.e. from Monday morning your current work should be pinned-up and updated, if necessary revised, throughout the week. No big print-outs (A1/A0 or bigger) are allowed. Work by hand or in smaller formats.
g) the Final presentation takes its form partly as your allotted wall space, and partly as short presentation for projection. Please prepare a PDF of 5 slides, uploaded on the server no later than Thursday 11th of September 19:00.
