May-June sequenced & Planning ahead
Now that I’ve finished the NCV course and there are only a few days left to help set up the final show, I feel I can plan my work schedule for the summer. The above time plan, though quite regemented, was extremely useful. I colour coded different activities and planned weeks ahead in advance so that I knew precisely how much time I had to work on my project (both Uni and NCV), as well as other things.
Over the summer, from July-mid September, I have to do the following things:
1 - move house (mid-July)
2 – develop work for the intrim show, which can also function as my prototype for unit 2 assessment.
3 – engage in a bit more contextual research. (though this can carry on post-September)
4 – try out other ideas and experiments that can inform my current practise
I imagine I will spend the majority of my working on 2, but I’ll see how things work out post-move. I intend to spend 30-40 hours a week on my MA project now, since I feel I’ve lost some time in undertaking the NCV course.
Psycho Building’s
I went to see the Psycho Building’s: Artists take on Architecture exhibition at the Haywood recently.
It was fantastic. A visceral, physical experience, immersive, playful. It seemed as though a lot of Situationist themes were present, particularly utopias and ‘cities built for play.’
I will write more once I’ve finished this New Creative Ventures course, it seems to be eating up all my time!
