Design a Critical Solution for the Neighborhood

Assignment due Oct. 17, 2006, Neighborhood Narratives
http://neighborhoodnarratives06fall.blogspot.com/

Design a critical solution for the neighborhood and post on your blog. Expressing yoiur design in text is an option, sketches and/or photographs illuminating, audio interesting, video is another presentation form....

This is based on the proposal of the Homeless Vehicle by Wodiczko as presented in the reading/handout -- and here's a link: http://www.we-make-money-not-art.com/archives/007768.php
or google: 'wodiczko critical vehicle' to find other links.

However, don't take this assignment literally! Wheeling a vehicle into class would be okay, but the assignment is more about brainstorming a design approach to the issues raised by Wodiczko, such as 'memory of the nameless' and 'tradition of the vanquished' and 'everyday a new history needs to be written...announced by the stranger' et al
