More thoughts and possible actions

Look/note at the ideas and activities of ICE (Institute of Curating and Education at ECA)

Write up notes from the Hidden Ontologies symposium I attended on Friday 22nd Feb, and write up something more formal about the ideas discussed and my understanding and interpretation of the discussion

Gather together and do more literature searching for curatorial texts, discussion, publications, papers, and articles.

Look over and digest the RGU research website for direction on research methods.


Thoughts on the terms Curator / Producer
Perhaps need to Define the terms

Curator is connected to the visual but could argue that the pursute could be film, dance, music
Curator in the visual is not just the looking after, it’s the making of things, curator has connotations of the term producer
Curator has creativity, colour, innovation, ideas, communication, collaboration,
Definitions of
