Title
Reanimating and rematriating WRAP (with staff and students at Manchester Metropolitan University)
Documentation of the second of two reanimating data workshops with students at Manchester Metropolitan University: missing stories and our many selves
Description
In 2019-2020 the ESRC funded 'Reanimating data: experiments with people, places and archives'. Part of the project involved staging a series of reanimations using data from interviews with young women from Manchester, conducted thirty years previously as part of the Women, Risk and AIDS Project (WRAP 1988-1990). Each reanimation involved a collaboration between young women, educators and researchers and used creative methods to explore the WRAP data and bring it to life in new ways.
This zip file containins materials relating to the second of two sessions carried out with students at Manchester Metropolitan University. Participants were Youth and Childhood Studies undergraduate students, predominantly young women living in the Greater Manchester area. They took part in two creative activities to explore the WRAP archive and their own stories about womanhood and sexuality. First they drew their 'many selves' and then considered how their many selves shaped their practice as child/youth professionals and later their relationship to the WRAP data. Each image captures different aspects of the students' identities that were important to them. Secondarily students engaged with some of the WRAP data (interviews MIS09, USD06, BT14, AMB18, EDD184, EDD135, ABC09) by cutting out data extracts, working with them and placing them in a pinata that would be opened for others to read. They selected stories that they thought needed to be heard by current and future generations. They also wrote and added their own stories, reflections and mind-maps to the mini pinata archive.

The file contains:
* images of students depictions of their 'many selves', created in the session.
* images of the 'stories' that students created for the mini pinata archive. This includes extracts of WRAP data.
* reflective notes by one of the faciltators describing and reflecting on the session activities and student engagement and responses.
