We pinned up ontographs, spoke to them, then Adrian did one of his long rambles. (YMMV.) Everyone completed a template to provide feedback for each ontograph too, largely to realise thi is how the final one will be marked.

A question to help frame the next ontograph: if it made a story about itself what would it say? (perhaps do it?)

Ai Vee is providing afternoon tea on Friday.

The apple watch story is to be read for Friday. It is a great example of a deep wonder about something apparently simple that pays attention to materials, relations. To what they do and what it does. This is not about ‘what it means’ but ‘what it does’.

When reading this mark up the text as you read. Use abbreviations for questions, problems, bits that intrigue, or you are curious about.

For the first assessment task (an exploded media map of a media thing, aka ontograph part 2)
narrow down the scope of your ontograph. What is the world from its point of view? What sort of world is it? (Why assume that the world needs to be similar to ours?) what can it do is much more interesting than what can we do with it. Another way in, if this thing could tell stories, what story about itself would it tell?
