This course broke away from the focus on individual project realization and positioned our group to turn to our neighbours and surrounding communities, attuning ourselves to the active social, institutional and ecological dynamics on unceded territory.
We asked students to engage in collectively determining our learning space; critique and trouble hierarchical and exploitative structures; and take up the work of neighbourly and place-based responsibility. In its creation and distribution, we hope this publication can serve as an archive and celebration of the actions and relationships we — students, teachers, guests, community collaborators, resource creators, and neighbours — formed during and after this course, and act as a prompt for future pedagogy and collaborations. This publication houses our course outline, weekly prompts, student reflections, contributors, and resources.
This publication was designed by Meghna Mitra and Jean Chisholm, and published by Occasional Press, an agile publication initiative aiming to showcase new forms of creative research from across Emily Carr University of Art + Design and the broader community. This publication was produced using materials, machines and labour available through the Place-Based Collective and the Stationary Project, and was designed to be printed on deadstock and scrap risograph paper.
