Family exchange
The ultimate way of learing from other people is by sharing family experiences - family exchanges. The students taking part in this project will therefore be encouraged to live with a family of different ethnic background for a short period of time and to discuss themes of universal interest: love, religion, hospitality and death. These conversations shall be recorded by use of state-of-the-art 3 G mobile phone technology and documented through talks, pictures and videos. Assisted by local contemporary artists, the students will transform his/hers pictures and videos into artistic expressions to be used in a contemporary art exhibition describing the students´perception and view of how "the other" relate to these universal issues. The student can also write an essay to express what it was like to live in a culturally different family or make personal sketches and drawings to pass on similarities/ differences between "us" and "them". Related to Norway this social experiment means that one "ethnic" Norwegian will stay with an immigrant family from e.g. Morocco or Iran; in Slovenia a Slovene student lives with a gypsy family or a Bosnian one; in Portugal a Portuguese student "invade" the home of a Cape Verdian family - and vica versa.
