- Thesis outline

Shape:
In general I think the best option for me to shape my thesis would be through one of the example formats given: a narrative that traces a web of relationships – contextualizing your work in relation to other practitioners, practices and artworks, situating your work within relevant theoretical, philosophical, aesthetic and other fields of knowledge. Because I think it could be interesting to keep on researching the three strands of research I've been conducting so far(queer cinema, lgbt identity/issues, and the photographic medium as such). A possiblity could be to divide the thesis in two or three parts.

What you want the thesis to be about?
More concrete options could entail:
- analyses of gay cinema (or representation by queer artists in general related to my work)
- seeing as knowledge
- theories about PHT (prenatal hormone theory)
- the possibilities or perhaps the dangers/dread in these technologies for the LGBT community
- dystopian/utopian ideas (in relation to a gay state, gay nationalism?)

How it relates to your research at the Piet Zwart so far
