Nach positiver Absolvierung der Lehrveranstaltung sind Studierende in der Lage mit Texten (Schreiben und Recherche) wissenschaftlich zu arbeiten, zwischen akademischem und journalistischem Schreiben zu unterscheiden. Sie haben den richtigen Umgang mit dem Zitieren und Bibliographieren gelernt, Grundprinzipien der Bibliotheks- und Internet Recherche, sowie Grundformen des Argumentierens. Sie können ein Thema so fassen, aufgliedern, organisieren und strukturieren dass es in einer Seminararbeit wissenschaftlich erörtert werden kann. Sie können wissenschaftliches von journalistischem Schreiben unterscheiden.
So What?
Daydreaming at the Crossroad of Architecture and Music
What? A proposal for daydreaming at the point of “So what?” where nothing–at a conceptual level–could only be itself. A polycentric seminar rethinking the boundaries of aurality and spatiality… Dwelling on the metaphor of orbital movement, it allows participants to follow interdisciplinary paths through philosophy, architecture, and music in which the path never remains the same and the continuous questioning becomes a perpetuum mobile.
As the relation once of a physical reality, audial and spatial, rushes to gain a complexity it evolves into music and architecture. To be able to deal with this complexity we need to dwell on overarching concepts and mobilize them.
Within this polycentric setting a question rises like a mountain in the midst: How could we generate an articulate thinking in a sophisticated, yet humble and novel manner?
How? The seminar dwells on the tripartite structure of thinking, reading, and expressing. Accompanied by reading and presenting text clusters, participants are expected to raise individual questions laying the foundations of a structured research process. A non-physical displacement through brain-and-ear-storming online meetings with guests to discuss novel ways of understanding the relation between the aural and spatial awaits participants.
Submission of a seminar paper is required.
Why? Outcomes of this seminar could be set forth as a set of "awareness," starting by perceiving the overarching importance of theory. As active contributors to the seminar participants get accustomed to theory in a-temporally and contextually-polycentric layout. On the one hand, confronting clusters of ideas and learning how to mobilize them throughout the process of research, on the other hand, being able to transform this process of critical thinking to a novel synthesis without compromising creativity. Scheduled fieldtrips and meeting guest scholars aim participants to become aware of the importance of intellectual and spatial surroundings as inputs. Through a selected reader list and its group presentations participants get the opportunity to practice individual and group-working skills.
