I AM THE CAMERA: Designing a site-specific screen work
(2024)
author(s): Nathalie S. Fari
published in: Research Catalogue
The site-specific screen work I AM THE CAMERA proposes how a specific place, in this case, the Hasselblad Memorial at Götaplatsen (Gothenburg, Sweden) can serve as a basis for generating a performance and/or documentary material. Drawing from site-specific performance, performance documentation and filmmaking, it uses the framework of a performance laboratory to explore the relationship between embodiment and audio-visuality; especially by experimenting with how the interplay between three characters and their technological devices can contribute to develop a performative and cinematic language.
Creative practices and public engagement

This exposition explores the role of creative practices in creating methods for public engagement and the promotion and recognition of tangible and intangible heritage at a local community level. It argues that principles of participatory design and co-creation have the power to contribute to community social cohesion and development. A literature review covering the main concepts and methods is introduced to provide an appropriate context for the main case study: Mapping Nottingham’s Identity. This research project includes the methodological and conceptual framework that were piloted and tested in collaboration with three localities within Nottingham (Sneinton, Carrington, and West Bridgford), including different stakeholders (community organisations, higher education, primary schools, local authorities, and the general public), producing a variety of outputs (a participatory methods’ toolkit, performative maps, community furniture, exhibition, websites) and reflecting on their role in creating meaningful interactions and place-making.

Nomadic Conversations research approach utilities participatory practices, where ideas and decisions develop through a responsive process in order to address both tangible and intangible knowledge. This is organised as interwoven, overlapping and interrelated meeting points, sites for single or multiple field trips. Nomadic Conversations constitutes characteristics of potential instability, conflict, memory of tragedy and repressed history.
