Unit 1 Assessment

'Develop your project proposal to plan a challenging and self-directed program of study':

Now i sense that the project proposal I had to present at the beginning of our course, was just an assemblage of abstract conceptions. I was directed towards them more by intuition and by personal interest; after a while i understood that with the slightest shift in focus the whole research changes.
I believe that the 'self directed program' of study can be evidenced through all the vague ideas i explored in the beginning to finally reach the form of my research question. Little by little all that is possible to be done was separated from the vague and the impossible.



'Articulate a clear understanding of the methodology and context of your creative practice in both written and verbal forms.'


The context and methodology of my creative practice could be found in my research paper, in blog posts, as well as in the context of our group presentations'. In my personal practice within the last few months, the practice based research and the context fall under the same category.




'Demonstrate a critical engagement with practice based research and contribute actively to debate and discussion'




I never quite liked how open to possibilities my initial aims seemed to me in comparison to what really happens. I always have had to overcome this initial fear. However, a link to my first experiments can be found here.
Concerning my contribution to debate and discussion, my tutors Jonathan Kearney and Ed Kelly are the most appropriate people to answer. Personally i really enjoy discussing with people; i consider it vital in the context of an art college as only sharing ideas and discussing them could help us develop ourselves more.
