In this series of workshops we concentrate on methods of annotation and text analysis which help us research this trimester's Special Issue. Each session has a specific outcome.




Intro:
== 2024/2025 ==


The Reading, Writing, and Research Methodologies Seminar is tailored towards (further) developing research methods within the first year of this master. By establishing a solid foundation of research skills, it will eventually prepare students for their Graduate research in the second year. Through reading core theoretical texts, they will establish a common vocabulary and set of references to work from. They will learn the practice of classic ‘essayistic methodologies’, including close reading, annotation, description and notation, students learn to survey a body of literature, filter what is relevant to their research and create comparative pieces of analysis. The seminar helps students to establish methodical drafting processes for their texts, where they can develop ideas further and structure their use of notes and references. The course takes as axiomatic that the perceived division between ‘practice’ and ‘theory’ is essentially an illusion.

Intro to Methods 24/25


Pad of the day: https://pad.xpub.nl/p/110924_Methods


Curriculum: The seminar will involve:


(a.) Identifying the object of your research: description and analysis of your work


(b.) Contextualizing your work through description and reflection on contemporary and historical practices.
== 2023/2024==


(c.) Identify research material key to your practice.

==Outcome of the seminar (trimester three) ==
 
The specific outcome for the RW&RM seminar of 2016-17 will be a 1500 word text which reflects on your own method and situates your work in relation to a broader artistic and cultural context.  The various texts produced within the RW&RM seminar will serve as source material for your text on method. In common with all modules on the course RW&RM serves to support your self-directed research. Therefore, the text on method will inform your Self-Evaluation at the end of the third trimester and provide the basis for your Graduate Project Proposal that you will produce in the fourth trimester.

15:00 meet in lrg Proj Spc
 
Steve gives intro:
 
15:15 we make notes and briefly research possible subject for the second essay
 
15:30 meet in groups
 
Group A: large project space
 
Group B: Studio
 
 
Discuss:
 
What do you want to research this trimester?
 
Researching the second essay
 
Suggestions:
 
1) Look at the conclusion of the last essay and consider the research strands it suggests.
 
2) Formulate a question arising from the group work you did last trimester
 
3) Consider new questions that arise  at the start of this trimester
 
4) consider the core questions at the centre of you self-directed research
 
5) Follow leads suggested by your bibliography
 
6) Use previous methods (see below)
 
7 ) Explore Jstore
 
 
==Timetable:==
 
First draft: 22 February
 
Deadline: March 22
 
Steve's notes on what you are doing:
 
 
"New project: collaboration with DePlayer the theme: the relation between scores and sound.
Michael, Aymeric, a graphic designer, Andre.
 
Still speculative: DePlayer have a publication in which sound artists make works and have invited contributions for the next issue.
 
 
They have been showing their records, Michael been showing how to produce sounds from scripts, Andre technical devices. Looking into the science
 
 
Tmrw it is graphical scores – probably start with John Cage.
 
Also a publication with Florian, about experimental publishing, decided to write a manifesto which can be amended by other students.
 
 
What is stake in writing a manifesto?
 
Performing an intention.
 
One opinion:  Manifesto classifies  = self classifying, you may see the hypocracies and contradictions in your thinking, you are making a stand which places you in a position which others may oppose.
 
Another opinion: The manifesto is a tool to experiment and understand what we are doing. Part of the topic we have to explore: which political structures communicate to other people; the M is a declaration of intent, the process should allow for reflection on the course. An action which shows an ideology.
 
What do we agree on?
 
 
We start with a question." Steve's notes end here
 
 
 
 
Task:
Before the next session,
 
(a) read and research.
 
(b) organize another session together in which you discuss the research you have done in the meantime.
 
Set realistic aims for the next session.
 
Set agenda:

Whilst working on PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE, the methods sessions provide a moment to step back and consider the special issue we are working on. We take time to reflect. In the first session we will experiment with methods of collective annotation. This is  an informal, group activity that helps collective reading and thinking. We read and take notes, share knowledge and raise questions.


== 16 Nov = DEADLINE FOR ESSAY FIRST DRAFT, REVIEW==


==Todays task==


Give a title


Make an abstract (two to three sentences which give outline of the text- answer: what do you want this text to do?)
1) Brief intros: how, what and why we annotate?  


Use the Harvard method to make references
Protocol: For this session Steve and Lidia have chosen 4 texts which relate to PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE.  We will try out a collective annotation in a big group to establish the principle. As we progress, we can use these reading and annotation sessions to add texts (in which case "text" can be widely defined) and establish new protocols through which to collectively annotate. After several sessions a "reader" will be generated.
 
2) The group split into 4 sub-groups and annotate one of the texts below.


Make bibliography
3) The groups will gather into one group and reflect on their reading of the texts (the "thesis", the similarities and differences between texts).


Useful links:
4) Building a PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE bibliography together (in which case "bibliography" can be widely defined).

==12 Oct==
In the second session, we will finish the collective annotation experiment of our previous session. In order to start processing the materials and connecting these texts to what you have been doing and reading with Michael, Manetta & Joseph, we will then get started on a visual mapping exercise in order to link concepts, practices and ideas. This map will be an ongoing process. Finally, we will introduce the PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE glossary.

1) Finish collective annotation exercise in 4 groups.


2) The groups will gather into one group and reflect on their reading of the texts (the commonalities, the divergences, the updates, agreements and disagreements).

Outcome for the PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE methods seminars (December): an annotated reader.

Intro:

In the second session, we will finish the collective annotation experiment of our previous session. In order to start processing the materials and connecting these texts to what you have been doing and reading with Michael, Manetta & Joseph, we will then get started on a visual mapping exercise in order to link concepts, practices and ideas. This map will be an ongoing process. Finally, we will introduce the PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE glossary.

1) Finish collective annotation exercise in 4 groups.

2) The groups will gather into one group and reflect on their reading of the texts (the commonalities, the divergences, the updates, agreements and disagreements).

3) Collective visual mapping of concepts, practices and ideas discussed so far.

3) Introduction of PROTOCOLS FOR AN ACTIVE ARCHIVE glossary.
