The course is structured in 3 key moments:
I – Systematization of ongoing research work: Author productions will be presented, analyzed and discussed that reveal different strategies for collecting and organizing material and that articulate various stages of project implementation (book, exhibition, website, etc.). Students will be challenged to identify and apply an organization system to their research through a suitable platform for their objectives.
II – the artistic residency will make it possible to gather, edit and discuss the practical and theoretical work carried out, with a view to devising strategies for the realization of an editorial object. The work process will be accompanied by a guest tutor, who will guide and promote moments of individual and shared discussion.
III – the preparation of a publication (mock-up) intends to materialize the research in an editorial object (mock-up) that can adopt different formats (book, visual essay, etc.).
