RESEARCH
Step 2:
making a mind map to visualise our different ideas go communities in Rotterdam and thinking of interactive mediums to communicate different concepts
To do list:
- Make Hot Glue. (DONE)

- Go to the spaces that make you feel at home/remind you of home. (DONE)
Collect:
- Sound (recording)
- Make pictures
- Make videos
- Write, have conversations
- Buy/bring little souvenirs from the place
Place the research on Hotglue (deadline: Sunday 9th of October)

- Make collage together on Tuesday 11th of October (DONE)

- Prepare presentation:
- Who talks about the research?
- Who activates the work (one person shares something or talks about their part, or
everyone?)
- How do we engage the class with the work (ask a question, give them a small assignment?)
Step 3:
Make a to-do list
Step 1:
Collect interests and see if there's any common ground.

Presentation plan:
Insan: talk about collective research

Alicia: talking about the overall process (our starting point)
--> presenting our end result

Individually share our research

Group activity: "worksheets" with questions for the class and teachers
A place that reminds me of my home in Rotterdam is Jazz Bar Dizzy. Specifically, jazz music reminds me of my family and what is familiar to me. My dad was a musician and played jazz and RnB music which is something my parents and I connect with.

Going to Jazz Bar Dizzy I took with me my yellow notebook which I take with me almost everywhere and record my surroundings or how I am feeling at the moment.

Another part of my research was sound and video recordings while being there. I went with a friend so some of them included a few of our conversations meanwhile.

As a remembrance of going there, I took with me a glass coaster and a cookie wrapper which I both integrated into the collage we made on our map.

Individual Research
Paula
For my field research I went to the Eastern European store near Blaak.
I noticed that I always fall back on eating or cooking certain kinds of food when I feel homesick and miss my family back in Indonesia.

I haven't found an Indonesian restaurant that I'm particulary fond of in Rotterdam, so I've mostly been going to Amazing Oriental, buying ingredients to cook the dishes my family in Indonesia often makes or to buy snacks from the foodcounter that I used to buy in Indonesia.
