Group Session on Mar 8
I got inspiration and helpful feedback from today’s group session. Some thoughts and feedback are summarized below.
- We all see the possible negative impact of AI and technology on people’s life. Over-productivity might make people lost in the automation. What does it mean to “me”?
- The usefulness of being a useless person
- Any specific technologies to be used

1:1 with Sarah #2 on Feb 23
We went through my proposal draft and Sarah provided me with valuable feedback . Below are the notes.
- Need to define what is the difference between healthy, wellbeing, and/or balanced – look for historical or multiculutral definitions of healthy
- Think of using a metaphor, an animated figure seems too straight forward
- Can “30 mins/day for technique learning” be somehow part of my thesis story?
- Brainstorming techniques provided by Sarah: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1YiIt0GEK2kERhhMaS-U6-7b1J5Sn4CAHHVoIv9RPx5A/edit#slide=id.p
1:1 with Sarah #1 on Feb 9
I had my first 1:1 with Sarah on this Thursday. It was a very nice talk. Firstly, I introduced my background and my initial thoughts about the theme of my thesis – Time. Sarah helped sort out my thinkings and went through with me the objectives, structure and expectations of Thesis. Also, a lot of inspirations and references were provided by Sarah. Really appreciate it!
Actions:
- Write two paragraphs from two different philosophical perspective under the theme
- Search for 3-5 artwork related to my theme – what do I like or dislike about them?
