ULAB MSJ Launches “Patterns of Bangladesh” Exhibit Series.
The Media Studies and Journalism (MSJ) Department of the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB, http://www.ulab.edu.bd ) will present its Spring Semester 2011 Series of Exhibits from April 24 to 27, 2011. The exhibit brings together the works of students, which includes research paper presentations, communication campaign materials, visual art, digital art, photography and film exhibitions. Every semester, the MSJ Department launches an exhibit – the forthcoming one being its sixth. Each exhibit is based on a philosophical/sociological concept and/or theory, which is used to guide and harmonize student outputs as well as ground them in communication-related perspectives.
The forthcoming exhibit carries the theme “Patterns of Bangladesh.” The theme highlights the Pattern Theory put forward by Applied Mathematician Ulf Grenander (1996). Grenander was concerned about order, patterns and regularity – concepts that imply that the world we live in has a structure making it possible for us to understand it. In his book, he mentioned “the world we live in is not completely disordered, although it may sometimes seem so. Instead, it is governed by rules, some of which are exact – like the ones controlling the changes of the season and the eclipses of the sun, while others involve randomness, like Mendelian genetics or the behavior of animal collectives.” In the exhibits, students must demonstrate an understanding of the concept of patterns in the Bangladeshi context as a partial requirement of their courses.
The concepts and/or theories in past exhibits included Face Negotiation Theory (Stella Ting-Toomey); Relational Dialectics (Leslie Baxter and Barbara Montgomery); Technological Determinism (Marshall McLuhan); and Gross National Happiness (Centre for Bhutan Studies).
The complete line-up of the forthcoming media exhibits/presentations are as follows:
