1 What do you want to make?
A visual essay based on an inner/outer mono or dialogue I'm currently having considering the rendered imagery of Rotterdam used in both (simulator) games and future architectural concepts of Rotterdam.
2 How do you plan to make it?
Using a sort of 'framework' that uses 'bricks' of information and places it in the context of both the complex realities of a city vs the hollow representations. To reflect.
3 What is your timetable?
October:
Read up on previously saved sources. Start sketching and writing thoughts down, collecting both sides.
November:
Think about the outcome. start the design and think of it either being a moving image, online or offline zine, a mocksite, etc.
Make a first draft for the first public moment. Maybe trigger a discussion. An anti-campaign. Parody? Satire?
December:
Continue and have something to show / discuss in Gent, to reflect in the project proposal and thesis outline. Have something of a 1,5-2 draft for the break to pick up after the winter break.

4 Why do you want to make it?
I'm in confusion by the idea of vision / images of the city through virtual representation. Mostly, because I feel that is an image that lacks multiple layers of complex contexts:
Accessibility(concerning disability)
livability (concerning the housing crisis)
affordability(pushing away the inhabitants).
leisureability (queer / underground scenes / festivals / gigs / event)
5 Who can help you and how?
Reading up on FemkeSnelting / Michael recently gave me a source about MassMoving which was more about public interventions
6 Relation to previous practice
POINXS / Video essays /
7 Relation to a larger context
Gentrification / urban decay / etc
