A workshop for developing, critiquing, and producing new projects in multimedia history.
About
The History Design Studio is a workshop for the most exciting new ideas in multimedia history. Joining a commitment to the professional practice of history with an experimental approach to form and presentation, the HDS is a creative space where students and scholars can design new modes of historical storytelling. Workshops include group discussion, collaborative brainstorming, rapid prototyping exercises, and formal and informal group critique sessions with guest critics. In addition to being a physical studio space at the Hutchins Center, equipped with hardware and software for multimedia production, HDS is also a community and network of like-minded scholars, invested in collaborative work and experimental narrative forms. By stretching the canvas of historical scholarship, studio participants make lasting contributions to the understanding of the past and its many meanings.
All Harvard students and affiliates are welcome to participate. No design or art experience is necessary.
