Day 3: Turner Challenge

Today has largely been about bringing all the information gathered from the past few days together and deciding how to present our ideas and works. The Colleton Crescent group have finished our gathering and have just started to put everything on Prezi. We have also had some great ideas about the mock up of the page on the Arts and Culture website. Namuun has been researching the past of Colleton Crescent and the adventures it has had since its creation.  As a group we have decided to have a timeline for the whole etching instead of just the Quay.

The Cathedral group, ran a fractured session today, with one of our members being unable to attend. The rest of our time was divided, between two tasks, one was to compile the data which we gathered yesterday into a coherent format, and secondly, one member of the group divided his time into editing the footage of yesterday’s interview with Professor Smiles. These tasks, were time-consuming and difficult, but did not prevent us from taking an active part in the decision-making process.

In the morning the Quay Group created a timeline about the history of the quay. Then we continued with making a comparison between Exeter Quay at Joseph Turner’s time and today by focusing on a few of he key spots on he Quayside . In the afternoon we went to the quay again to gather more information and make some interviews. This turned out to be very productive as we managed to find out what the economic and cultural circumstances were when Turner created is famous painting.
