“…The final representation of the project, including the network of texts, images and other objects could be employed as an alternative doctoral project interface. For example, the potential of the digital representation of seventeenth century Taiwan could be developed into a form of digital archaeology, making culturally significant objects accessible to a broader public (Diaz 1998). However, while design research remains wedded to traditional textual exegesis the full potential of digitally mediated knowledge construction and visual forms as an alternative form of academic submission remains unexamined (see Edwards 2004;Gilbert 1998;Seago and Dunne 1999).…”

Practice-based research projects in design often require students to construct contextual reviews of multiple fields. In this interdisciplinary territory of an emerging academic field, supervisors and students must work jointly to construct a mutually satisfactory outcome and avoid producing a body of dissonant voices. Knowledge and practice precedents must be actively constructed into a coherent map of the research terrain so that the project focus can be foregrounded. While the project-based component of practice-based doctorates is familiar creative territory for design students, balancing this with textual scholarship can lead to loss of focus and unstructured proliferation of sources.The use of two-dimensional visualization strategies, such as mind-mapping, can contribute to clarifying research positions and gaps but has limited capacity to dynamically integrate visual and textual sources. Digital visualization tools can facilitate the mutual student and supervisor organization of knowledge, exploit the visual literacy of design students and respond dynamically to project changes. This article shows how one visual tool may better mediate supervisory dialogues with students particularly in the context of practice-based doctorates of design incorporating project components. Following a review of existing research visualization strategies, I exemplify the potential of a hypertext tool to mediate the supervision and knowledge construction process with two narrative cases of student work.

This article presents the Raisio project of the Department of Archaeology of the School of Cultural Reseach at the University of Turku. The excavations of the project revealed an unusual find of eastern provenance, a kisten ball from a strap flail or lash. The use and distribution of this weapon type in Northern Europe is discussed. The find also serves to demonstrate the so-called Middle Europe as a transitional zone between the eastern and western cultural spheres, and some problems of the formation of cultural boundaries and intermediate zones lying between them.Tutvustatakse Turu Ülikooli arheoloogia õppetooli Raisio projekti, mille raames toimunud väljakaevamistel avastati ebaharilik idapoolse päritoluga leid -piitsnuia munak. Arutletakse selle relvatüübi kasutuse ja leviku üle Põhja-Euroopas. Leiu põhjal näidatakse Kesk-Euroopat kui siirdevööndit ida ja lääne kultuuriareaali vahel ning käsitletakse kultuuripiiride ja vahevööndite kujunemise probleeme.
