After the second meeting with Sarah, she gave me a lot of insightful suggestion. I noticed some contents I missed and some thought should be articulated. The key missing part for my thesis is what is the impact of my project, and why it is matter. She still ask me to think about “Does interactive media allow for different ways of engaging with the core Buddhist philosophies in ways newly relevant for today? ” For the research, it should answer my thesis question and focus on measuring the impact. Last, she suggest me to draw storyboard before actually doing the project. It will help me envision the form of my thesis.
After, this meeting and her feedback of my proposal, I will think about more about the meaning of the thesis and do more research. The thesis should not be only an experimental or technical challenge for me to visualize personality, I need to think about the influence it might have.
Hey Yunshan!!
Chelsea here! 🙂
I really enjoyed reading about your continuation with Buddhism, and philosophy! I really like the fact that you’re challenging yourself to not only keep the core foundations of Buddhism alive, but also making sure that it’s not forgotten! I think it’s really neat that you’re thinking of ways to present Buddhism in a new way and am very curious to see how your thesis progresses! 🙂
