MA | Weekly Reflection 3

It's been a productive week MA wise. I have been doing quite a lot of Web research in to art movements and artists, trying to place my work in a wider context.

An interesting find was the Open Systems exhibition I missed (!) at the Tate. I have the book on order, but already I'm starting to find quite a bit of relevant research by searching for information about the artists whose work was exhibited. I wish I'd seen the exhibition though.

I also started to get my Web links in order. I am using a delicious page to organise them. This week's task was to present our links in Harvard format. I am actaully fairly familiar with this and I think it was more important for me personally to get my links out of my Web browser and in to a form that other people can access.

During my on-line tutorial this week we discussed the action research approach to creative practice. Based on my past research activities I had imagined that I would follow a methodology along these lines, but I wasn't previously aware that it had a name. It's something else that I'm now starting to read up on.
