Hello all,

thanks for your work today. Although the exhibition is a bit partial at present it is begining to interest passers-by.

So from here on . .

The exhibition:

I have checked the Traction of Drawing Symposium timetable (http://intersticesjournal.wordpress.com/) and Saturady is the big day, beginning at 9:00am. It is then only a half day on the Sunday.

So I propose that we go ahead as planned:

• have it all up and running on Saturday 14 November at 10:00
• have the opening from 10:30 - 11:30 when they are having the cup of tea at the symposium
• close it at 6pm, when the last address is on.
• open again at 10:00 on Sunday 15 November, close at 12:00

Would anyone like to volunteer to design a cool email flier?

We need to make a roster for the Sat and Sunday, I will email you all later with this.

In the meantime please complete your work, send me any info about how to access your project online and Xiao Li please find out about internet access.

The blogs:

I will do the final assessment of your blogs on Tuesday 17 November.

Cheers

Exhibtion: update

Hi,

as we discussed in class I have moved the exhibition opening date to October 28th. I have asked if we can run it through until November 16th. This would allow it to be viewed by those attending the Interstices Drawing Symposium on November 14th and 15, so we would have an audience of international experts! The Interstices organisers have agreed, so now I just need confirmation from the faculty office who manage the space.

Cheers
Kathy

Exhibtion

Hi,

just to confirm, I have booked the corridor space on level 2 for Thursday 8 October - Friday 23 October. They are going to look into the lights issue.

Next week everyone is going to bring something visual in terms of what you have been collecting, recording, mapping so that we can start to work out the visual language of your map. On 1 October everyone will bring a mock up of their map to class so that we can start to curate and design the exhibition.

This is the website of Global Studio, the project we discussed today http://theglobalstudio.com/

Derive:holes

Reading this week

Hi all,

Please choose a text from Abrams & Hall, Corner or Treib. The question for all is:
What key aspects of maps and or mapping does this author(s) discuss?
Why do they consider mapping to be an important process?

Please all read Hofmeester et. al.

I will be showing lots of mapping examples in class this week, and they will be on cecil after the class. Also, remember to put your derive onto your blog before the class, we will be looking at them.
Kathy

Next week

Hi, please bring a camera, a book and pen and $5 to class next week. If the weather looks bad bring rain protection. We are going on a Dérive.
