Making It Public - Synopsis
Now that digitalisation is commonplace and born-digital materials are mainstream this thematic wants to focus on theories and practices of e-publishing in various forms. The central focus of the thematic is: what is a hybrid publishing platform and how can it be used?
Focusing on the results from the documentation classes of the previous three years, in which first MMDC years students developed documentation projects that portraited or responded to the graduation works from the second year's students. Using these as materials for the creation of a collaborative e-pub will answer these questions. The documentation material consists of texts (articles and interviews), photos, animations, video, paper publications, and websites. Next to the practical implications we will discuss how research and publishing in the arts have changed over the past decade. ===We will explore new tools for gathering knowledge, examine platforms for multimedia publishing or collaborative writing experiments, focus on the interplay between pixels and print, and discuss open and closed spheres of knowledge===. As an outcome we'll challenge students to conceive and implement an electronic publication for the works developed under the context of the documentation project.
In the meantime this will inform thinking about the meaning and value of documentation and the way it is used by different kinds of institutes, organisations and individuals that produce, collect and manage cultural material.
