Realistic outcome for next meeting=

notes on Jan13 meeting:
Busy with: swzland; experimenting with the scale of the work and different modes of presentation; how to use space around the image; multiple projections...
Also went skiing; aren't a lot of tourists, so that was fun.
Thesis: still struggling with how the thesis should look (mode of address):
1) method description (help develop practical work) = ( big themes: the anthropocene &c.);
2) different views on the meaning of 'mountain'. Look into 100 views of a mountain (compare the different ways people experience mountains)
1) seems the best [Steve notes: you already have material to move quickly forward on this]
Steve suggest: Make the new research 'cut off point' after the Eye presentation.
We agreed Sacha will reflect on 3 recent works using WhatHowWhy method
Have been dealing with big issues (the sublime-the simulacrum): Would be good to concentrate on the detail of making things (medium specificity)
Outcome by next meeting: start with WhatHowWhy and discuss (describe) 3 specific pieces (2000 words in total).
Next time: review written work
