<p>This thesis is based on an exhibition at the county museum Upplandsmuseet in Uppsala, Sweden. During an internship at this museum I got a chance to produce an exhibition, with some guidance from the museum staff. This exhibition was created with the purpose of teaching about agriculture in the late 19^th century and also about the magnificent workmanship of Alrik Klingberg, who have carved these wooden objects for over 50 years. Each one of the objects possesses a story and a memory. The memories that Alrik Klingberg has incorporated into the objects are mainly from his childhood at a croft in northern Uppland. Since these memories have an obvious connection with a type of farming that does not exist in present time, it is important that the stories are being told to younger generations. That is why children became the most important target group when creating this exhibition. One effort to strengthen the pedagogy for <em>A life with sculptures </em>was to locate the exhibition near the children’s corner where a lot of families spend their time during the museum visit. During the project I have been forced to realise that the original idea needed to be formed along the changeable process. Everything did not go as planned which, according to my conclusion, is something that belongs within the process. Learning by doing – a standing quotation at the Institution for ABM. In this thesis the process from idea to final exhibition will be described. This one year master’s thesis is a report concerning exhibition techniques, pedagogic tools and the making of an exhibition with personal objects that reveals a story about someone’s life.</p><p><em> </em></p>

Denna rapport innehåller en redogörelse för mitt examensarbete, Charlie åkerkarusell, som gjordes vid Carl Malmsten – Furniture Studies, LinköpingsUniversitet, våren 2012. I mitt arbete undersöker jag hur man kan serietillverkaen liten produkt med hjälp av mallar och fixturer anpassade för film och hur mandokumenterar processen med hjälp av film. Jag har tittat på olika filmer som rörämnet och olika typer av mallar för att sedan formge en liten figur vid namnCharlie, som serietillverkades i en serie av 30 stycken. Jag utförde några avmomenten i serietillverkningen med hjälp av en typ mall som jag konstruerade.Mallen, som jag valt att kalla för karusellmall, är inte den mest rationella men ärdäremot betydligt mer spännande och spektakulär än en traditionell mall. Därföranser jag att karusellmallen lämpar sig bättre för filmdokumentation. Jag haräven skapat en film som visar hur min produkt tillverkas med hjälp av minkarusellmall. / This thesis contains a description of my degree project, Charlie Rides the MerryGo Round, which was made at Carl Malmsten ‐ Furniture Studies, LinköpingUniversity in the spring of 2012. In my work I examine how to mass‐produce asmall product with new variations on templates and fixtures, and how todocument the process with film. I have looked at various films related to thetopic and various types of templates and then design a small figure namedCharlie that was produced in a series of 30 pieces. I carried out some of the stepsin the series production with the help of a type of template that I designed. Thetemplate, which I decided to call a merry go round template, is not the mostrational but is much more exciting and spectacular than a traditional template. Itherefore believe that the merry go round template is more suitable forfilmmaking. I have also created a film showing how my product is manufacturedwith the help of my merry go round template.
