BA CCI field trip

Students in the BA Culture and Creative Industries undertook direct observation to enhance their research skills in East London. First year students taking the module Cultural and Creative Industries, Arts and Popular Culture made a group visit to Hoxton Square and surroundings yesterday with Cecilia. The purpose of the visit was to collect observations about urban space, social interactions and cultural processes discussed in the course. Students walked Hoxton streets, took photographs and wrote notes about buildings, uses of space, cultural facilities, street art, signs and people, recording traces of the significant transformation of this cultural and creative hub in London.
