Facilitated by Andrew Stiff and Catherine Earl this workshop ran for three hours, and was conducted in the Study Melbourne Hub, District 3, Saigon. The workshop was conducted with students studying architecture and anthropology, both of which are schools within the Vietnam National University. The three-hour session was divided into smaller task led components.
Workshop Breakdown
- Andrew and Catherine introduced the idea of mood, through the idea of heart feeling or heart sentiment.
- The first task was designed to get the members of the five groups talking comfortably to each other, through introductions and then developing their own understanding of the meaning of ‘mood’.
- Students were asked to create two maps. The first was between midnight and midday, the second was midday to midnight. Students were free to choose the hours they wished. It was interesting to note that they all picked similar times in the morning, during the journey to the university, which is perhaps when they are engaged the most with the city. The second timeslot reflected student lifestyles and was more varied in times.
The Workshop was presented by RMIT PlaceLab and supported by RMIT Vietnam.
