Thesis Peer Meeting with Beth #2 (02/15/2023)

Hiya!!

Hope all is well!

Just finished up with our peer group meeting with Beth, Sehmon, Ai, Jheanell, Jaye and myself. It was so much fun! We each went around and discussed our thesis ideas and it was super helpful getting feedback! It was also inspirational listening to everyone’s ideas! New inspirations are blossoming for sure! I have plenty of new things to think about but for now I am solid on my idea and cannot wait to see how everything develops!

 

Until next time! 🙂

Starter Bibliography

This is just the beginnings, with some references coming from the research Sarah gave me to do and some coming from sources I was already fond of. I’ll be adding to it as I collect more stuff.

They are all very inspiring, especially I have got to sense the clear direction in each projects they were and are doing. I started to clear out some of my ideas and now it is more manageable and we also talk about grants for projects, Sarah pointed out Creative Capital(https://creative-capital.org/), which is helpful. And I think for some of the sessions with Sarah, I would like to do presentation of project to her so I could improve my skills better explaining my concepts and progress, etc.

 

Meeting with Sarah1

1st meeting with Sarah was very helpful to know what bibliography is and we talked about the directions of my project, and Sarah pointed out some professors I could contact, and later I sent emails to those professors, and now I have schedules with two of them, very excited to show my progress already.

Meeting up with Brian, Ai, Ian and Anney, we talked about our rough ideas, but of course not finalized yet. It was great to hear what everyone is thinking and sharing some insights about inspiration.

Peer Meeting 1

Thanks to Nun, Zoe, Jamie, and Dora for talking through the progress, and bouncing ideas and resources my way. I appreciated the personal feedback/experiences folks shared as they related to my topic and the areas of embodied experience. I’ve added some of these to my starter bibliography board.
