22/11/2023 WORKSHOP 3
This challenge was slightly difficult, I have never extracted data like this before, more on numbers than anything else really, or in the collection of waste volumes. Overall I think the beauty behind his was the creativity, which was unique to the participants in the classroom.
Reading the transcript: Textual Data Analysis: Possibilities, we read a dialogue between management and teachers on the purpose of universities.
My initial thoughts were slim and jarring at best, as it came across as a very informal and passing conversation on the topic at hand. but it was interesting how the transcript picked up on the vocalised pauses really well. That allowed me to rethink this piece as a creative illustration of where the mind goes to find the right words to carry a conversation.
The purpose was to construct a word poem around the transcript, which I believe allowed more creativity into the workshop as we connect poems to things of beauty, works of art and literature masterpieces.
