i'm not very good at keeping this thing up to date..... but i will strive to do better. I've found the assesment process very useful in clarifying my thoughts after christmas.... i really want to start making work and testing ideas.... but i fear i have still to abandon a fine art mind set when approaching this(although not entirely).... some days i really wonder whether this was the right choice for me but then i realise it is me that has to keep adapting..... i don't have to create numerous finished pieces of work and i can't do all my ideas at once, but i am excited about workshoping ideas and documenting this process too.... i think this will open my work and thought processes up and help me develop something which is both art and performance but not necessarily performance art.... i will try to post my research proposal... only thing is it is in an apple document and i don't have internet access at home.... i feel so low tech, no internet, no laptop, an ancient computer...... should i take out a loan and invest in technology at this stage or can i survive on college resources for the rest of the year... decisions decision....
