Originally I was going to use the school printers to scan my pages in but then quickly was made to realise that they scanned at such low resolution that the images were pretty awful. Joe lead me to the scanner where we properly scanned each image into the computer and they came out crisp! I was scanning the back pages because I thought I’d print them as well as the drawn on pages but the thought of having to perfectly match up both sides of the paper seemed pretty daunting so decided to only print the drawn pages. The paper was thin enough that the printed elements came through anyway which was the look I wanted. I scanned them into photoshop and was taught how to clean the images up and greyscale them. I then removed any blemishes that I didn’t want shown and then transferred the edited images onto InDesign. This is where I put the pages into the right order and was prepared to print.

You will map a private, public or institutional site

This can be visual, written, performative and/or audible

Encourage to explore mapping as a process of investigating, reviewing and recording of ideas.

Aim of identifying a linkage

A geographical site eg: the gym, a hospital, a living room, a street, a neighbourhood.

Act of visiting is important in the process of mapping. Reflection is very important, a topic people can relate to is important for them to know about.

I chose the peckham pelican as it was a location I knew would be easily accessible therefore allowing frequent visits and good amounts of field notes. It is a location where me and my friends go to hang out and relax after uni and so it is a nice atmosphere for me to work in and observe.

Luise Vormittag

How do you capture an encounter with another person, another group, another culture?

How do you speak of the experiences of a group that you do not belong to?

Who is allowed to make representations and with what authority?

What is ethnography? - “Writing about people”
Ethnography originated as part of 19th century Western anthropology.

Anthropology is the study of human beings; their cultures, societies, behaviours and languages.

Methods of ethnography:
- fieldwork
- participant observation
- field notes
- writing up

Colonialism
- establishment of foreign rule exploitation
- the construction of racial and cultural difference that privileges the colonial ruler over the populations they rule.

Ethnographers start paying attention to the act of writing. Previously the authors voice was just seen to be neutral.

Self-reflexivity - showing awareness you are making a representation requires awareness of who you are and what you are bringing to this representation

Partial truths - anything you can show is always going to be a partial truth, it is impossible to show all sides of the culture.

Artist expamples:
MITCH MILLER - illustrator in Glasgow
- “dialectogram”
- uses architectural blueprint language
- document flats that were going to be demolished
- document peoples lives that live there
- gets people gather around and tell him what is happening where in the building

NINA SABNANI - Animator from India
- making work during the partition
- cloth stitching done by the community showing their own narratives through tapestry
- she added moving images, music and peoples voices to make a video adding more narrative to it
“THE STITCH SPEAK”
- she is not part of this community but was invited by them to help make this piece
- she visited multiple times

MATHILDA DELLA TORRE - previous student at CSM
- volunteered for refugees trying to get into the UK
- writing down the kinds of encounters she was having
- you can hear her voice through it, reflecting on herself and her powerlessness
- so simple but conveys a lot of emotion
- written posters
- had encounters submitted by other volunteers
- made a book with the encounters and all the money goes to a charity that supports these refugees
“CONVERSATION FROM CALAIS”

LUISE VORMITTAG
- an illustrated project of people trying to find a home
- a quick one day project
- collated paper houses
- showing peoples most prized/sentimental objects
“FINDING A HOME IN NEWHAM”

Field Notes

RACHEL:
What is a field? - a site of research

Fieldwork is a way of doing research where the emphasis is placed on the collection of data at first hand by a researcher. It relies on personal interaction or engagement between the researcher and those being researched in the research setting, during which the researcher…

Filednotes are the written record of the observations, jottings, full notes, intellectual ideas, and emotional reflections that are…

Disadvantage of field notes is that they are recorded by an observer and are thus subject to:
- memory
- possibly the conscious or unconscious bias

“I swear I saw this” - Michael Taussig (Australian anthropologist)

Drawing of a Māori head (2007) d
- drawing ok but photos are not
- wanted to be returned to the Māori people but the french national historians forbid it

“Sympathetic magic” - imitation or resemblance to another thing (phrase by James Fraser)

Rachel’s field notes
1st column - date and initial details and observations
2nd column - reflections a week later
3rd column - drawings

She had a lot of ethical concerns because she was working with children.

Video of drone on mars - “field notes from mars”

HENRIETTA:

Observation - collecting qualitative information/data
- information about what?
- what do you want to know? The information you collect will need to be a response to this question
- unconscious bias - how far are they a form of objective data collection?

Reflection - happens afterwards
- interpreting information
- what is the information telling you?
- how can you respond to this?

Initial form/stage of research
- includes notes, drawings, observations, personal recollections, interviews, other factual information (day, time, weather conditions etc)
- written or recorded at the time. Not later
- research relies on accurate filed notes - create vivid images, record precisely (get permission to record people first)
- what are you trying to find out? Behaviours? Events? Underlying systems?
- reflect on what you noted down
- why are your observations important?
- what can you interpret form the information that you captured?

Field notes are both personal and factual
“Make the strange familiar and familiar strange”
- familiarise something that you might have made assumptions about / stereotype / disregarded
- see yourself from a different perspective
- establish empathy between different groups
- reveal power dynamics
- how can your field notes help with this?

Walter Benjamin - The Arcades Project 1927-40
- written over a period of 13 years (remained unfinished)
- the “theatre of all my struggles and all my ideas”
- collection of reflective writing, quotes, photographs, architectural sketches
- research into beginnings of consumerist society as revealed through the Parisian arcades
- merging of street and interior, historical time broken up by distraction and ephemera
Methods:
- montage, assemblage, like the city itself
- the “refuse”, “detritus” of history “the half-concealed variegated traces of the daily life of “the collective” became “object of study”
- depended on chance like the “19th century collector of antiquities and curiosities if the ragpicker” not methods of modern historian
- similar to dream interpretation - not conceptual analysis of bourgeois society
- reveal surprised “true history”

Mass observation movement 1938
- anxiety about Hitler and the rise of racism
- anxiety about the democratic process where only the authorities have access to facts )knowledge is power)
- mass media manipulation, propaganda
- “an anthropology of ourselves” daily activity such as going to the cinema, dancing, surviving air raids

“Field notes from mars”
- what type of information do the presenters identify?
- how do their descriptions shed light on your drawings?
- can you add anything to drawings/notes or make new ones with this information?
- why do you think it is important to collect this information?

“Exploring some local history (and my own back yard)”

Crystal Palace train station next to the palace - print

Edward Barry - architect who built Crystal Palace and Dulwich college

Crystal Palace burned down in the 1930’s

Why this?
- She chose a place that meant something to her. It is a PUBLIC place but also PERSONAL
- always try to research topics you have an interest in, or a connection with (it will make the process a lot more enjoyable)
- use both secondary and primary sources if you can
- make sure the information you find is reliable. What is meant by that?

Reliable sources
- provide references to other material you can check yourself
- by doing this you are also expanding your research to a deeper level
- example: footnotes or bibliography in a published book
- remember to cite all your sources and images correcting (use ‘cite them right’)

Alessia’s example:
- started research with a walk around her estate and taking photos PRIMARY RESEARCH. She lived here since 2012 and she did not know anything about the history of the palace
- notices the big arches and then discovered what the place was before it became housing. Chatted to a neighbour who moved in when the estate was built PRIMARY RESEARCH/SECONDARY RESEARCH, in 1985.
- found website for the Crystal Palace subway which then led to the Norwood society site. These are all reliable sources of information as their pages link to other sources, books, authors and historical figures that can be further looked at
- also went to the local library.

To recap:
- did some online research but also:
- wen to the local library and spoke to staff
- took photos of estate

The next step would be to go to and look at original documents in local and national archives PRIMARY RESEARCH

Could also have reached out the members of the Norwood society or the Crystal Palace subway and ask them questions PRIMARY RESEARCH

Practice:
- 5 mins: chat to the student near you about your theme/location
- 10 mins: do some research for the,, on their topic.
- 5 mins: swap notes

Maggie Jones:
“Peckham Road, Southwark. This is a Grade 2 Listed building and was originally the home of the London Association for the Blind. I'm not sure when this building was built but there are records for a Pelican House on Peckham Road in the 1850's. This building looks more like it was built in the 1930's”

# data[].attributes.body
From around the 1870’s to around the 1920’s the space used to be a institution for the blind and a hospital for sick horses!

# data[].attributes.body
Then the space was named pelican house and only recently in 2013 developed into the peckham pelican.

Although this is an idea I thought of originally it kind of appeared out of nowhere. Obviously it was inspired by the cider I drink and how it is a constant at the Pelican the designs feel pasted on and slightly without thought. I know these are initial designs and that I would plan to make them more refined and more label like, I definitely think this is something I’ll pursue in my own time and not carry on with in this project. I will still use a bottle as a prop in my planned installation as I think it will be a nice addition to the final presentation of my piece.

The Peckham Pelican logo, on the left side of the wood block. I made a mistake by drawing the logo the right way round as the print will print flipped which is not the outcome I wanted, but that is a small mistake. This is going to be my second layer of print.

This is the right side of the wood block and will be the background piece which is a “sun” or just a framing circular piece which is present in a lot of Japanese art pieces. This will be printed first.

After cutting around each of the design a ditch is cut around which is wide so when applying the ink it doesn’t affect the surrounding wood and therefore doesn’t print.

I started this sketchbook on march 26th 2021 and only filled in 4 pages  and then didn’t touch it again until the 26th of September 2022 when I started the drawing-a-day task in the first year.

What is Reportage?
Dictionary definition : Reportage is the reporting of news and other events of general interest for newspapers, television and radio.

Generally, nowadays, it is thought to be mostly done via photography, video (in many ways since social media meant that anyone could post video etc and writing)

But there is a long tradition of artists acting as reporters via drawing as correspondents, going out to the places where things are happening and sending these works back to be published.

This seminar is a rough chronological sampling of how art has been used to render and make sense of the worlds and events taking place in it.

In relation to our “mapping” task, we see that some of these artists “MAP” in a systematic way, but more reportage…

I wanted to focus on a theme I face everyday but also have looked into briefly in my first year final project which was being ethnically half Asian. Specifically, I wanted to dive deeper into how it feels to not 100% fit in anywhere. This stems from my experience of travelling to a lot of places that are connected to both sides of my family and not looking the same as anyone else. Going to Thailand and being with my mother’s family, I was also considered to have pale skin and people would be surprised when this “foreigner” could speak their language. On the other hand, coming to the UK, usually Ireland where most of my father’s side of the family reside, we would be the only remotely coloured people we encountered, not surprisingly, in any of the villages in the south west of Cork. People always wondering how our family fit together and my older sisters being mistaken for my mother or that I was their adopted sibling.

Since birth this is something I have come to realise not everyone feels and that even though it isn’t always in the front of my mind, still affects me to this day. I want to explore this further through potentially print making and applying that to designs I can put on clothing. I think this is a good medium as it is a wearable outcome meaning it can reach a large audience and possibly speak to a population of people who feel the same way I do.

I heard the term “screed” from my tutor and researched into it.

The definition being:
“A long, boring speech or piece of writing with a bad attitude, like a rant. If you’ve had enough and you’re not going to take it anymore, go ahead and write an angry screed”

Although I hope what I end up making is not described as boring or tedious but I would like to portray my fed-up attitude towards not feeling like I belong in a humorous and sarcastic tone.

Encountering some issues with the venue as they are very slow to email us back and they are asking very specific details of us a couple days after our brief when we don’t have anything to show them.

They want:
Layout of space
Advertisement pictures for the exhibition
How many people are making what like films and 3D work etc
If we need tables and things

At the moment we can’t tell them anything because we don't know what anyone is going to make yet

Very stressful.

I wanted to represent the phrase of not belonging with shapes in a logo style graphic. This will be my “brand” logo on the clothing.
I ended up preferring the middle-right logo.

I ended up designing some shirts that resemble tour merchandise. Using my logo, a ‘tour’ title, locations and a date. I used places in my life I have been to frequently and in each place I have felt like I don’t belong.

I wanted to focus on a theme I face everyday but also have looked into briefly in my first year final project which was being ethnically half Asian. Specifically, I wanted to dive deeper into how it feels to not 100% fit in anywhere. This stems from my experience of travelling to a lot of places that are connected to both sides of my family and not looking the same as anyone else. Going to Thailand and being with my mother’s family, I was also considered to have pale skin and people would be surprised when this “foreigner” could speak their language. On the other hand, coming to the UK, usually Ireland where most of my father’s side of the family reside, we would be the only remotely coloured people we encountered, not surprisingly, in any of the villages in the south west of Cork. People always wondering how our family fit together and my older sisters being mistaken for my mother or that I was their adopted sibling.

Since birth this is something I have come to realise not everyone feels and that even though it isn’t always in the front of my mind, still affects me to this day. I want to explore this further through potentially print making and applying that to designs I can put on clothing. I think this is a good medium as it is a wearable outcome meaning it can reach a large audience and possibly speak to a population of people who feel the same way I do.

When it came to printing the publication this was a hair pulling experience. At the beginning small issues were occurring such as sizing was off, pages were printing a little too far apart, a margin was being applied in the wrong places and then the pages started printing double-sided but upside down. After printing the publication around 8 times with none printing correctly I was starting to lose it. Different issues were getting fixed and old ones were coming back. I decided to call it a day and come back to tackle it the next day. I returned with hope and recruited John the technical wizard to help me and obviously he fixed it with one drop down menu. Classic.

Book binding is one of my favourite processes so this was a really fun part of the publication making for me. I used black linen thread to match the colour of the cover of the book. I used a simple single kettle stitch to bind these books with the thread tie on the outside as to not distract attention away from the illustrations in the book. I really liked the neatness of this stitch and it made the book look even better.

This is a picture of the books after binding but before cutting them down to size.
