Second Assignment

Mindful of discussions yesterday about what constitutes RTP, please examine all of the collections and exhibitions from the Museum of Jurassic Technology (see list of links) and then select one using it as a "litmus test" for what RTP can create.

Then work backwards: Does the collection or exhibition your group selected seem to be the result of using RTP as a methodology? Yes or no, use your conclusion to open the door onto a narrowed description of RTP as a methodology which will serve you in your main assignment.

Presentations will take place in Svarta Havet on Friday October 10 at 1pm.

First Assignment

By the time we hand out this assignment you have already red the Ernst Bettler article and been on a guided tour at Armémuseum. The task you are about to engage in is collaborative and we ask you to, in assigned groups, revisit the museum and chose one room or display with which you can make an interesting link to the article. Take pictures and collect material needed to present and argue for this connection at our coming seminar on Monday October 6 at 1pm when each group will have 20 minutes for their presentation. In addition we ask you to bring to the seminar 3 provocative statements or questions per group relevant to your presentation in order to open up to a discussion and brainstorming session on the relation Armémuseum – Bettler.

If you have questions regarding the assignment we are happy to discuss these tomorrow, Friday.

Don't forget to send us a list of your group, with names, departments and email addresses! Please send them to: bergstrom.jenny (at) gmail.com
Thank you!
