Stepping into the academic side of this experience, here are some photos from our final field trip within our Digital Humanities course. For our final trip, we got the chance to do a data walk through Nottinghill and Kensington, making notes of surveillance infrastructures within the areas. This trip was a chance for us to combine all the course content we learnt thus far and to implement it in a fun and interactive way. We left the college campus at 8am, picking up a packed breakfast, we then took a coach bus to Nottinghill. From there we got a chance to explore the Museum of Brands (first couple photos). That point forward in groups we split off and walked from Nottinghill to Kensington. We were able to explore places such as the Portobello Market, Nottinghill Gate, Hyde Park, Kensington Gardens, and finish off at the Victoria and Albert Museum, while keeping an eye out for how surveillance measures are extended into our day-to-day living. To talk more about the course, the digital humanities course is such a unique and interesting course taught by an amazing professor. We get the chance to learn about network technologies starting from way back to when the telegraph was first invented, all the way to how our phones influence us in today’s society. With such a variety of majors and programs within our course, it is cool to see all our different backgrounds coming together in our class discussions.
