| '''Focus:''' Today we will form the Personal Reader reading groups based on your shared interests. In connection with your personal reader, I will introduce an annotated bibliography exercise which will lead you into your first reading group meeting. We will also be talking about how we write, why we write and the challenges we might face in this process. To address the latter, we will be doing a quick writing exercise to help with the separation of two acts: writing and editing. This should prepare you for our final activity: working on your first Projects That May or May Not Be Made (PMOMMs). With the PMOMMs, you will further explore the relationship between research and practice through self-reflexive writing (descriptions, analysis and contextualisation of your own practice), and working on quick prototypes.

| '''Annotated bibliography exercise:'''<br>
| |
| Pick 1 or 2 references (they are not fixed or set in stone, don't spend too much time picking the best references):
| |
| * Write a synopsis (even if you haven't read it yet)
| |
| * Why is this important to your research/work?
| |
| P.S.: Include contextualization on author's field and background + bonus: context of the text
| |
| | |
| '''Writing exercise:'''<br>
| |
| Is there a text you have been struggling with? Something you need to get out but just cannot find the courage to write? An application, a project proposal, a difficult essay? Then I propose you use that as fodder for this exercise: take 15 minutes to write this text. You cannot:
| |
| * Use punctuation
| |
| * Go back and edit your words
| |
| * Go back and delete or scratch your words
| |
| | |
| When the 15 minutes are over, save the text and close the window/fold your paper. You are only allowed to look at it again during our next class on May 6th. You will then be allowed to edit this text.
