Methods of Investigating: Tutorial No.2

What does your selected media indicate? What do you want others to understand?

Interesting conversation and research on “Non Places” as detailed by Marc Auge

How are you investigating with regards to this specific site?

With further context and secondary research: digital aspect of cemeteries: i.e. an online catalogue, lettering as done by hand versus machine, the culture associated with burial and memorials and how that is transformed in the digital era. (How) does this affect the emotional impact and/ or the ability to connect over grief?

Types of flowers? And why these flowers, what is the meaning associated with them?

Consider the portraits: can they be isolated further without focusing on the individuals themselves; focus on the details such as the gold framing. Perhaps look at the social and historical aspect of portraits. The financial implications of burial and “additionals”.

Maybe consider multiple maps to break down the informations and layers

What is the distinction that can be drawn between portraits and textual inscriptions?

What methods are more communicative? (Surprising, interesting etc.) A synthesis.

What do you want to highlight? And the medium that makes most sense for the same

Create a container (or not) of your investigation – in a form best suited. i.e. an expression that makes sense for your idea. Examples: publication, social media account (if using digital photographs) etc.
