Assignment 2

You will submit 1 blog post that contains:

  1. Development (350 word minimum): A short discussion/description/synopsis of the work you aimed to create for each of the weekly exercises in weeks 4, 5 and 6; and how you hope to bring all the weekly exercises so far (weeks 1-6) together to form the collection.
  2. A collection of 6 short media works: You will embed into this post the collection you have put together from the 6 weekly exercises. Think about how you will present the works together so it’s clear they are a considered collection (we will discuss this in class).
  3. Reflection (500 word minimum): You will write a short reflection that considers all of the following questions. It should make reference to (and cite correctly) at least 3 ideas from the weekly readings. 
    1. How have the themes identified in the works produced for assignment 1 developed and/or changed for this collection?
    2. How did you make use of the affordances of the different kinds of media to try to highlight or heighten the different experiences of the senses?
    3. What is one thing that worked well about each of your media works? What is one thing that didn’t work quite so well about each of your media works?
    4. How are your ideas about the enacted body developing as a result of making these works?
    5. What are some ideas you would like to explore further in group work for assignments 3 and 4?
  4. Links to weekly blog posts: You will include the hyperlinks for each of your six weekly blog posts.
