We’ll check out van Houtryve‘s Traces of Exile. as a class. We’ll also look at the featured story from The New Yorker, “Europe’s Migrant Trail, Through the Instagrams of Refugees”
As we look through the exhibition, consider the following questions:
- What story is van Houtryve telling us with these videos? What does he want his audience to learn from this exhibit?
- What kinds of artifacts does van Houtryve use to build this story?
- Why is the arrangement of his artifacts effective? Or not?
- What lessons can you learn from this project for your digital research project?
