Visualizing Cultures

Hi all,

For this class I am supposed to do two projects, which means about 3 hours of work each week.

I decided to start with a MOOC on edx called Visualizing Cultures, it's about using visual supports to get a new look at some parts of history. This one class is about 3 parts of Japanese History:
  - The opening of Japan due to commodore Perry in 1853-54.
  - The Hibiya riots in 1905.
  - The Shiseido period.

This MOOC is hosted on edx and is supposed to take between 3 and 5 hours per week so that should keep me busy for the two projects until the end of the MOOC, finding a new project will then be the task.

Cheers,
Felix
