* **2014:** The main assignment of this years' module was on exploring the area surrounding the school, identifying opportunities of action and designing an intervention. As in the class I had taught in Colombia, I made a strong emphasis on context mapping through ethnographic design methods. One of the projects was about visibilizing the FabLab as an open space for the community, for which the group designed a assemblable bench, which they later places on a temporary bus-stop (thus without bench), inviting people waiting to build it and know about the existence (and ethos) of the FabLab. | * **2014:** The main assignment of this years' module was on exploring the area surrounding the school, identifying opportunities of action and designing an intervention.

- | * **2015:** | + | * **2015:** Having started to work in [[wp>Genk]] the previous year, and focusing on the issue of work ((Context on Genk)), this years main assignment consisted in devising a series of interventions to open up conversations about //work// in the city. Inspired by [[http://carldisalvo.com/|Carl DiSalvo's]] take on [[https://vimeo.com/13822958|//Public Design//]], students were again encouraged to directly intervene in the city and contribute to a pressing debate. See the final results [[https://theothermarket.wordpress.com/2015/05/26/how-to-start-a-conversation-lessons-from-students-in-genk/|here]]. |

The main assignment consisted of working with of our lab, as an exercise working with //real life// clients in social design projects.

- | Info about TS. | + | {{ :the_school-_diagram.jpg?direct&400|}} The School is a creative residence programme of 6 months where international talents are provided with the right tools to collaborate on common challenges. Its first iteration (still on course) is located on the edge of a Belgian micro-city-center ([[wp>Hasselt]]) and across a central station, in an emerging area: The School’s first habitat is a post-academic dream environment. The School makes the difference and creates effectiveness in |
+ | multidisciplinary collaboration. The School selected its resident designers via scouting and an international call. The School offers its designers 6 months of free education and 24/7 free access to think, play and create in all spaces. All resident designers will design and publish a number of artistic products and sell them at the A5-Shop. All resident designers will create and conduct workshops throughout the 6 month cyclus. These workshops are knowledge sharing tools. |
