Ok now trying to get 'concrete' with this.
I have decided that the best way to preent to the panel is to host it as a conversation. This connects also to the work I'm doing at the moment with ADA as we head towards the materiality and criticality symposium in June.
So how to host a converation? I'm reading an interview with Hans Ulrich Obrist, he has hosted some fantastic conversations, released as books but also conducted live at conferences. there is a crafted casualness to his questioning approach that shifts the discussion away form an intereview and more into the realm of conversation. In this context I am both the host of the conversationa dn the interviewee. Need to think about:
- scale
- relevance
- clarity
The best way to do this may be to design the hour and a half in concentric circles ... the lab ... histories ... futures ... networks ... .
This allows a series of stopping points and overlaps.
This can develop into a series of headings and inside these a grouping of ideas.
This also allows me to integrate theoretical approaches within the groupings.
A first attempt:
1. undergraduate history - women'sstudies - haraway - situated knowledges - positionality
2. current networks - collaborative research - massumi - newmobilities - workshop - equality - curriculum development - the lab
3. flexibility - research/ teaching interface - delicious - communities of learning - MFA supervision
4. electronic arts - academic leadership - principles - criticality - assertiveness - assessment
5. improvisation - making and doing - theory and practice - multiplicity - blogging - media ecologies
Each of these groupings represent a pathway that begins with a situation / location and moves towards the realisation of a particular strand of my practice.
Next I'll expand each of these and think through how they will mobilise my presentation.
