Week 12 Studio: Final crit

The last studio of the semester — every final project presented with its provenance file, crit'd by the whole room one more time.

14 October 2027

Before the session#

Bring the finished object and its complete provenance file, printed or otherwise presentable to the room.

In the session#

The same room-crit format from week 7’s Assignment 1 review, run one final time and at higher stakes: each project is presented with its claimed history, and the room — tutors and classmates together — questions the provenance file the way an auction house’s due-diligence team would. The questioning is meant to be hard; a provenance file that survives it is doing real work, not just decorating the object.

Afterwards#

Marks and written feedback for “Provenance” follow on the schedule given on the assessment page. This is the last scheduled studio of the semester.
