The participants will then be instructed to explore and observe the emirate, and prepare their individual presentations which will take place after lunch. The participants will then break for a flexible break for lunch and prayers, which will be considered in this case as an opportunity for the participants to polish their final presentations. After lunch and prayers, the participants will then present their initial design ideas in a via a video conferencing facility to enable the male and female groups interaction and on a film format. The films will be broadcast on MSN and stored on Facebook for future reference. Discussion and critique will be reserved for studio time. The participants will then partake in studio-based work. It is here where Al-Ali and the tutors will re-form the groups, using information from Facebook and the Pecha Lucha presentations as a basis for doing so. At this point, design briefs need to be finalised for the final exhibitions films. Studio-based work will then commence, with the tutors working closely for guidance and support. At this point, the participants will be informed of that the deadline for their presentations is the end of the following day. During the studio-based workshop the groups will be remixed and matched by the tutors, and will be expected to work on finalising their design briefs. The participants are then encouraged to socialise, reflect and relax in accordance with the studio’s philosophy on Schon’s theory of reflection. During this time the participants can visit the appointed zones covered during the virtual tour or work within their newly formed groups. They must facilitate the VDS tools, using links from the website to explore the emirate using, and Facebook to answer workbook questions and update status etc, all of which will be monitored by the tutors for assessment. The day will then end with a lecture from Studio Coordinator Gemma June Howell, concerning creativity and design thought processes. This lecture will encourage the participants to think metaphorically in terms of poetry and design, teach them to trust one another as team members and will inspire them to create their final design strategies. Day 3. 21/10/09: 09.30-11.30hrs Submission & Installation The final day is reserved solely for presentations and critique. During the first hour of the day the students must submit their final projects. The female presentations will take place via a video conferencing link, discussion and critique will follow from both tutors and groups. The participants will be required to submit their presentations and all relevant material for their design projects from the participants. The will then have a free period until 13.30hrs where they will regroup for the final presentation and critique session of their projects before the final installation. All of the tutors will be on hand at the point and changes can be made before the final film installation. 14
The Installation will take place at the theatre hall in the male campus, and guest will include all observers, speakers, relevant representatives from the local authority, partner organisations and the UOS, the wider architectural network associated with Virtual Design Studio, the studio tutors, participants, relevant figure-heads and the press will attend. There will be a brief reception whilst the tutors and participants prepare for the presentations. The final pieces including all models, presentation boards, drawing and finalised digital output will be installed by the groups. Amal Al-Ali, Gemma June Howell and Randah Taher will be responsible for all digital and screen based outputs. To begin, Amal Al-Ali will provide an overview of the project and introduce the exhibition. The participants will then provide a quick summary of each solution/proposition that has been developed over the past week. Each group will then presents their work as laid out in the self-composed brief. The groups will be encouraged to use the freestanding installations and exhibits to display all materials used throughout the course of their project. The films will be screened and extensive networking will take place. 15
