Unit 1: Reflection + Future Actions

Practice/Research

1. The performative elements to my practice have been successful in illustrating my ideas so far- continue to use and develop this (even if its just a quick, impromptu video)
2. Try to use more innovative or haphazard ways of construction that drift away from what I have been “traditionally” taught
   • Perhaps by setting up rules for myself to follow, I can begin to let go a little bit of what is “traditionally” correct
3. Research restricted codes of conduct, systems that enforce a rigid “way of doing things” (like traditional crafts even), and restricted access to specific groups of people (perhaps looking at Helen Hamlyn center for design- aging exhibition.

1. Have a chat with Julian to confirm if I should apply in November or January
2. Connect elements of research directly to practice, and overall use more research in lieu of descriptive writing
3. Revisit old work and connect it more to my current journey (I’d like to do this in a creative way-I need to think on this a bit more and get some suggestions)
   • my initial thought is to use one of the time consuming methods that I did in the past and create a multiple hour video of me doing this (maybe looking at how I develop my own meticulous practice; micro processes; the discomfort of an endless task; absurd approaches).
