I’m really late with this one but thankfully this is mostly down to actually being productive and getting pulled down some interesting rabbit holes. So, with that I’ll reflect on last week and I’ll tackle this week over the weekend (I definitely cannot guarantee this)

Last week was a mixture of frustration and success, we’ve had student rep meetings and began a coffee & complaining teams meeting to help give everyone the space to just relax together. Online study feels very much like we are always trying to cram the learning in and with no casual walk to the tube station after class, there’s no real space for genuine bonding outside of the coursework itself.

At the beginning of the year, I joined a few societies, but honestly it looks like only the curation one seems to have stuck, which I don’t think is a bad thing. I am mixing with students from other courses. Even if it is just for an hour a week. It feels like there is a natural conversation and we are working on a project which will hopefully connect me with some student artists and not to sound too pretentious ‘expand my network’. All in all, joining The Curation Society seems to be a good thing.

Aside from that we had a Life After talk from an MA CCC graduate and she’s been working on a project that she had to put to onside because of the pandemic that I really want to be involved in. I’ve reached out to her, maybe this could be a great post pandemic / graduation project? Or maybe sooner? Who knows.

So, it was less about the course and more about university life and the beyond last week.
