Pre Task Information:

To gain an insight into who you are as a person, we have designed two short tasks which ask you to research what Shades of Noir does and give a critique/response of your findings.

Task 1:

Shades of Noir has five digital platforms; www.shadesofnoir.org.uk www.shadesofnoir.org.uk/education www.shadesofnoir.org.uk/artefacts www.shadesofnoir.org.uk/creatives www.shadesofnoir.org.uk/journals/

They are all well used and have a heavy amount of resources available for academics within Art and Design Higher Education.

We would like you to have a look at one of these sites and create a personal response to the resources, blogs, and information available. This may cover the whole site or just reflect on one section - it is up to you! We welcome analysis, honesty and critique. This response can be written (300 words) or filmed/vlogging/audio (2-3 mins).

As part of this we would like you to consider one thing you might add to one of these sites and why?

Task 2:

Shades of Noir publishes Terms of Reference Journals (ToRs) on a regular basis. These journals include content from a large number of the team and external contributors.

Please have a look at our upcoming ‘Wilful Ignorance: An Apologists History’ and create a short written, audio, visual or filmed piece (either 300 words or 2-3 mins.) in response to the blurb.

We are an intersectional platform and love to hear all voices, please write this piece in any language you are most comfortable writing in.

Please submit your responses through the online form. Please title your submission as follows: PRETASK _ FULL NAME.
