PREPARATION FOR THE FIRST SESSION

Be prepared to give an account of where you are at with your self-directed research and talk about what you want to achieve this year. Think concretely about what you want to make, how you are going to make it and why you are going to make it. Consider: What possibilities are open to you? (It is understood that making a final project is a process and things will change as you work on it)

an account of self-directed research and what I want to achieve this year

I will start my account of self-directed research by reinterpreting the thematics from Special Issues last year. SI1, Start Up, Burn Out provided a observation of and empathyization towards global work culture in context of rising digital economy. It's an observation because we held a distance towards these phenomenons, the distance in a school building; but it's a course of emphatization because we are enveloped under these situations, contexts and environments. The publication produced in last October Ten Theses on Life Hacks is an outcome our emphatization. In the publication we delineated ten theses on life hacks.

what possibilities are open to me

What material from the 'text on method' you wrote last trimester could be useful for the proposal?

What material have you written (descriptions of work , assignments for last year's methods class, the methods of annotation you developed &c) which you can use? Review the written feedback from tutors you got from previous assessments and have it available for reference during the first session
