Description

Documentary Production: Fieldwork in the Virtual
Field

This project-based class will investigate a wide
range of themes and possibilities suggested by
the particularities of networked media in
relation to documentary production, including,
but not limited to identity, privacy,
collaboration, virtuality, security, fragility
and storytelling. We will look critically at a
variety of apps and platforms and work both with
and against them to engage with the formal,
aesthetic, political, social and economic issues
that they suggest.
