Description
An account of the resource
In this course, we will embark on an exciting journey to India. We will explore the diverse ethnic, religious, artistic and social realities of India by experiencing them in their own contexts. We will examine issues of Indian society, religious beliefs, economy, and globalization through music (Ravi Shankar’s “West meets East,” Sufi Rock), visual arts and crafts (Delhi street art, erotic art, block printing), body art (Mehndi), film (Bollywood and rap), architecture (Taj Mahal in Agra, Hawa Mahal in Jaipur), etc.
Through this interdisciplinary exploration, the students will learn the basic tools to critically reflect on the emergence and impact of human creativity and innovation in the context of the arts of India. This will be done, in part, through field trips to what is known as the Golden Triangle cities of Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. We will visit different socio-cultural settings in these three cities, engage in a wide range of experiential learning activities, and interact directly with local students and the community of the Dayalbagh Educational Institute (DEI) in Agra.
Students from HKU will partner with students from the DEI to investigate, reflect, and collaborate on a project focused on the crossover between arts and sciences, with a thematic focus on “Nature, Culture, and Cities.” In groups, students will work on issues of cultural diversity and their preservation, environmental issues and sustainable living, specific challenges Indian students face living in cities, and the arts, sciences and technology’s role in meeting those challenges. The aim is to develop an inquiry-based, interdisciplinary, and creative project that will be shared in the form of public dissemination event both in Agra and in Hong Kong.

An account of the resource
Dear all, welcome to our weekly radio programme, India Today. Gender inequality has always aroused debates and concerns all over the world. Especially in India, many are still fighting against women discrimination. Today, we would talk about child marriage in India. With Miss Susan, a female activist in India, a story of a little girl Laura, victim of child marriage will be exposed. Living in a poor village in Agra, Laura was forced to get married at the age of 14, as many village girls were, and sacrificed her childhood. Is it tradition that drives the practice? Or is it rather a manifestation of inhuman social norms? What could be done to stop it from haunting children’s dreams? Remember that a further discussion with Susan will be presented in the later session, for us to understand more about the phenomenon of child marriage in India. Stay tuned!

In the video, I shift between my inner monologue and external dialogue while reflecting upon my experiences during our trip to India. I compared different aspects from sustainability, community and lifestyle in Dayalbagh with major cities in India.
I further explore how I can implement these positive aspects into an urban culture, such as Delhi, through an artistic dimension by recollecting and analysing the similarities between the ideologies of the Daylabagh community and a Hydrabadist Artist, called Daku.
Finally, I try to envision alternate realities and possibilities that would occur if the ideologies from Dayalbagh are translated into Delhi.

Subject

Description
An account of the resource
Films move at 24 images (or frames) per second, while the stories they convey emotionally move us. Either in the form of daily-shared stories on our phones or streaming platforms at home, motion pictures are deep-seated. This course investigates films as tools for thought. Students will learn about interesting ways of watching films, film criticism, and especially how to communicate powerful ideas through short films. By the end of the semester, students will be able to communicate their own ideas on screen by using the method of remediation to visually discuss Hong Kong-related themes.
Driven by an international range of film productions across time periods and genres, we will begin to develop a visual vocabulary through terms such as mapping, observation, narrative and montage in order to create our own short film adaptions. Using a ‘procedural mode of engagement’ — which we will explain in class — as a way of examining these contexts and frames, the course adapts film-making as an act of creative engagement with the built environment. This creative reservoir of residential atmospheres helps us to question our current place and time. Through in-class discussions, critical film analysis, peer reviews and short films, the course will enhance students’ visual communication skills. No prior film or poster making skills are required.
