No surprise, I’m late on this again! As I sit down to write this I am struggling to remember what on earth happened last week?
We are doubling down on our curation project on Oral Histories, which is coming with its challenges. I’m so used to experiencing the research and creative part of projects on my own and making this project in a democracy is challenging.
I had a meeting with my tutor who is guiding the group project and she told me something that my therapist tells me all the time (*steps on soapbox* normalise mental health chat and therapy!*steps off of soapbox*). She told me that she thinks I might expect too much of myself and possibly of others. Yup! No surprise there. I am trying to knock this habit on the head but old habits etc…. But I am trying I promise.
In the meantime, work on my essay has slowed a little so I think it’s time to reach out for some help. So that’s my little goal for next week.
Ahh, here we are! I read Gillian Roses’ Visual Methodologies, which has helped. Then some more writing on Thick Description and Poor Images, which I need to put some more time into, It did not go in at all. I have no idea what I read! But I suppose not everything can stick right?
