## Syllabus

Curating New Normals will support participants in exploring, expanding, and expressing their work on emergent futures. Starting from a personal position and progressing into a collective vision they will build an engaging narrative around change using a curatorial process.
The course will ask designers to explore a broad scope of connections, associations and references to contextualize their own work in order to communicate their area of interest, issues, type of change and overarching message. Through a co-creative process, they will then explore synergies with others in order to merge and evolve a joint proposal. During this process, they will identify themes and reframe their work into a collective narrative, understand audiences and interrogate appropriate formats.

The course is modelled on a design process that draws on curatorial practice. Learning through productive processes and using them to generate knowledge. Discussion of curatorial approaches will include exploring subjects through scripting, visualization, and materialization. It will touch on: curatorial concepts, thematic and narrative structures, engagement, Interpretation, gateway exhibits, key messages, stakeholder and audience development, issues of environment and media, and particular rethinking programs and formats.

Above all the aim of the course is to clarify the individual projects, contextualize them in wider discussions and enhance the understanding of their ambition and role in a bigger picture.

Examples and tools will be drawn from the hybrid practice of Charny's creative strategic consultancy.
