one last day of exploring our options. so many! so exciting!
- photovoice: caroline wang and mary ann burris, “photovoice: concept, application, and use for participatory needs assessment”
- photo essay: luc pauwels, “conceptualizing the visual essay“
- interactive documentary: paolo favero, “getting our hands dirty (again): interactive documentaries and the meaning of images in the digital age”
some examples of each, if you want to explore what these look like in practice. (suggested, but not required, but it’s good to look at examples of the work)
- photo voice — in honor of the 1-year anniversary of the parkland massacre, scenes from a protest. OR, in honor of our current “national emergency”: “this is what it looks like for kids traveling in the caravan“
- photo essay — roman williams, “religion, migration, and change in a european city” (more can be found here, if interested)
- interactive doc — highrise — out my window
if you are at a loss as to what to send your humble teacher, another image option could be to grab something from one of the above examples and engage with it (how it works, doesn’t work, what’s there, what’s missing, why it’s compelling data, why it might not be….) — that is, if there’s something from the readings/examples that you want to talk more about in class, this is your chance to possibly make that happen…
