Wilson, Robbie Zachariah (2019) Towards a Ludic Ecology: Popular Participatory Peripatetic Performance: digital practice component of Robbie Zachariah Wilson's Practice-as-Research PhD. [Data Collection]

Description

From a research perspective, the files contained here should be engaged with in conjunction with the written component of the author's PhD thesis, which can be accessed through the Kent Academic Repository (KAR), as together they form the practice-as-research thesis.


This media content can only be fully understood as research material in conjunction with the written component, which you will find here https://kar.kent.ac.uk/69349/


Similarly, the written document can only be fully understood in conjunction with the content contained in this media library.


The contents of this media library constitute artworks in their own right - please feel free to engage with the collection on this basis. However, in order to understand the research significance of the media library's contents, please also read the written component of the thesis.


Please refer to the 'Preface: Guide to this Thesis' section and Introduction chapter of the written component for information regarding the relationship between the written and media content.


This Project Media Library (PML) is organised into three folders, one for each of the three strands of practice. Each strand's folder contains sub-folders that, in turn, contain the various types of digital practice and documentation.


The three strands of practice (and titles of the three main folders) are:


· Perplexpedition – spontaneous, quick-fire, loosely-structured encounters between small groups and their immediate environment. I employ video editing to creatively analyse and interpret what is happening whilst sending myself up, thereby establishing the practice’s particular aesthetic.


· Wandercast – an interactive audio-walk podcast series that invites listeners to playfully engage with and reimagine their environment. For the full experience, download the podcast episodes and listen while going on a wander. You can also find the podcast by searching for 'Ludicrous Pilgrim' on iTunes.


· Spinstallation – workshops in which participants’ playful actions turn their environment into a found installation. I set the participants playful tasks in small groups and ask them to document their activities collaboratively on video.


The titles and contents of the sub-folders should be self-explanatory.


Throughout the written component of the thesis (https://kar.kent.ac.uk/69349/), I make reference to particular contents of the PML. To aid navigation and retrieval, these references reflect the folder/sub-folder structure of the PML and appear in the following format (PML\Name of Strand & Type of Media\Name of File). For example, a reference to Wandercast Ep.1 - Welcome to the World of Wandercast appears thus: (PML\Wandercast Episodes\Ep.1 Welcome to the World of Wandercast).
