Task Ia - Me as explorer
- Find, analyze and present a portrait of yourself / self portrait in a ten-minute lecture. Please consider what it means to be an explorer and how that manifests in the chosen image of yours: Look, pose, attitude, equipment/clothing, surrounding situation, etc... Please do retrieve the image from your personal stock ranging back all those years of your past life!!! (we do not want you to produce/stage a new image, since this is a task to come yet)
Task Ib - Expedition item
- Find, analyze and present an "expedition item" in a ten-minute lecture.
Task II - Magnetic North
How do you imagine the „Far North“?What kind of landscape, lifeforms (if at all), people, nature and unexpected wonders do you expect to find behind the polarcircle? What is your notion of a place where the sun goes to rest in summer and never comes up in winter. Either write a short essay, draw a map, make a photograph or create a painting about everything that comes to your mind, your fears or expectations. However, please do retrieve the images from your imagination! This task is about fantasies and dreams of an unexplored land behind the polarcircle. What we will encounter once arrived in the North is not know yet.
