Everything That Happens Here
A four-day project that asks students to curate a film night that presents the local area. Historic short films from the 20th century and new films, combined with music, performance, poetry and objects, become the tools to affect mood and inform/inspire the audience.
The project introduces the idea that design in the 21st century moves beyond image and objects to encompass any sensory medium that affect experience and emotion. The project suggests research as a device that can help fuel and develop a project beyond an individual designer’s expected responses.
The film night will be at the end of the project week in a local venue.
The title ‘Everything That Happens Here’ sets a boundary, within which all local information, people, objects and ideas are fair game, past and present.
Thirty students from the design course (first and second year) will be divided into ten groups of three. Each group will be asked to prepare ten minutes of the event. The groups will be given a time period as a starting point and films will be shown in chronological order.
Teaching will be delivered by Jasia and William Warren. Tuesday morning will be a series of exercises aimed at pushing students towards new collective thinking and subsequent days will be spent in tutorials, researching, filming, programming and preparing for Friday night’s performance.
