THESIS CHAPTERS
INTRO/OUTRO (1st and 4th chapters)
(INTRO is basically ready, just need editing and re-framing - OUTRO will be written in April, just before final deadline)
STUDIO DIARY / ANNOTATIONS (2nd chapter)
. an episode from last year (or episodes? i think i have a couple more to add, at least one) - as a way to give an insight in what I made last year and how I came to my grad project and overall research and practice
. January Project Proposal (which contains excerpts from November PP) + Assessment afterthoughts and plans for the next months
to do:
keep on annotating the progress of my work, from now to April - description/"reading" of materials/images I'm working with and the way I am using them, the choices I make, the practical processes, ideas and observations that spark form it
A CATALOG/COMPENDIUM OF CONCEPTS, ATTITUDES, DRIVES. (working title) (3rd chapter)
A way to elaborate on and articulate what I am making, and why - as invited to do during January assessment. An exercise of repeatedly writing series of sentences/short paragraphs in which I try to define what I am interested in, as an artist, the field in which i am moving, as I often struggle to clearly understand and therefore explain/express what I'm interested in, what and why I make.
(to be written from now to April)
Steve suggests (16/1/24): there was concern in the assessment that you needed to give more attention to as broader context, and consider the legacy of your practice and its engagement with contemporary discourse.
I suggest you describe a work related to your own and apply these questions:
What are the implications of this work on my own?
How can this work change my mind?
How can this work sharpen my perspective on my own work.
To kick off, I offer these examples: please describe Thomson and Craighead's Horizon [1] and Six Years of Mondays [2]; Broken Webcams [3] and Light From Tomorrow [4] and ask the above questions in relation to them.
