Brainstorming and discussing your projects• Aims until end of Module 1:

- Have your blog set up and runningOnline meetings: Suggested dates: XXXX

- Have an idea about your project and in which direction you would like to go (for literature and project review):

- Which concepts to explore further (theoretical and practical)- Which projects have already been done that are similar

or use a similar framework, method, or research questions- Open questions? (e.g. legal, grant applications,….)

- Submit your revised abstract until Dec. 19 (suggestion: January 16) (formulating first ideas, content and aims of the project, ca. 2 pages) – this will be sent to lecturers in Module 2

- Grading based on completed tasks, contributions to class, blog set-up

Next steps:

• Set up and get your blog running (Make appointments with David)

• Write an abstract about your project idea:- Identify a few concepts and a theoretical framework to explore further (literature review)- Identify projects which have already been done that are similar (project review)- Collect open questions (e.g. legal, grant applications,….) (for lecturers to ask and to research on)

HOW TO WRITE CONCEPT PAPERS / PROPOSALS

• Introduction –Summary of the larger puzzles and issues –Locating your work in a larger issue –Main research question

• Problem Statement –What is the issue? –What are the specific questions? –What is the context and background? –Why does this matter?

• Conceptual Framework –How do you look at this puzzle? –What is the theoretical framework (what is this a case of?)? –What are the key constructs? –What are specific terms you are using and how do you define them? –Model of what you think is going on

• Methods –What do you plan to do and why –How do these link to the questions and the Conceptual Framework?

• Bibliography (Literature to be used)• Open questions

Questions from Hildegund Amanshauser’s class:

• What type of art or activity do you want to make: music, visual art, a performative project etc.• Would you make a legal, illegal semi-legal project? Would you need permissions form the authorities or private people?• Do you want to make a participatory project?• Whom would you like to involve?• What would you need to realize it?• What time would you need?• If you need money, from whom could you get it?• What political, social impact should it give to whom?• Who is the public? Who would be the audience, how would you approach the public/the audience?• How would you document the piece?• Is there any existing/historic project you would refer to?

Ask yourself: Who does what for whom, why (and when)

Brainstorming and discussing your projects

How can art and cultural productions be culturally, socially and politically meaningful and effect changes?

Are art practices enough in themselves, or does art need to move people to social action in order to be worthwhile?
