              Unfolding DesignBlog

              Henk Groenendijk, Dima Stefanova (NL)

            2. The DesignBlog project, online since 2007, is an interactive research platform part of the curriculum of all Foundation Year students of the Amsterdam Rietveld Academy. Initiated and moderated by Henk Groenendijk, DesignBlog presents over a 1000 reflective research postings part of 35 special programmed projects. At the same time it shows a slice of the minds of the Rietveld international student community at work.

              DesignBlog is not a regular blog. It is a complex and layered system in which facts are more than facts alone. Not a platform for research only, but a database, a research engine in and of itself. It is an instrument, and it is the students platform for publishing. Since last years addition of graduation research essays, a bridge between the first and the last year of the academy is made.

              With contributions in English, the Blog is accessible around the globe, and successfully so, as viewers from India to Alaska check in on this community on a daily basis. For this Brno Biennial the blog itself is unfolded into a presentation that moves from on-line to off-line and back.

              Exhibition concept and execution in cooperation with Lotte van Gelder and Jakub Straka.

            4. Unfolding Designblog is a two-day intensive workshop open for all students, focussing on 'design' research. The workshop will be led by Henk Groenendijk, teacher at the Rietveld Academie, moderator of Designblog and interdisciplinary media developer Dima Stefanova.

              The event is targeted at creating a framework for subjective views that serves as a roadmap for the creative research process. The organizers are particularly interested in how this can manifest itself in a site specific context.
