+ | |||
+ | immediately visible would be the fieldnotes & documentation from the residency, there are some suggestions for further reading and writing (e.g. with CAA, a possible reader and following specific threads/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | there is some obvious potential in the sound material. we'll work on another ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | sonification of time series might provide an opening for further collaboration either with ARI and/or FoAM kernow if there is interest. this could involve some kind of soundscape and/or ambient display of time series (w. varying degrees of ' | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====questions that remain...==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | while we've been guided by a set of questions (see above) not all can be answered definitively and many remain present. during the week, we've made suggestions, | ||
+ | |||
+ | during the week several other questions arose (see above) or were clarified, some quite specific, others more general (e.g. "How can we extend small-scale experiences more deliberately to evoke wider ranging effects and/or unexpected resonances?" | ||
+ | |||
+ | ...and then the "what? so what? now what?" loop, which might also be answered more lucidly after departure. some of the "now what?" are outlined as " | ||
