to clarify:
the thursday sessions are meant for discussion and development

the final hand in will cover all words from the original list, presented in reworked layout/ format

the dictionary is work in progress and cannot be produced in the last minute.
it requires engagement with the subject matter on a multitude of layers and the exploration of various ways of representation. it should stir the discussion within the class and teach you how to see, how to read context in its complexity.
