Week 7

We're half way through this term and I have finally had an MA tutorial. We seem to have agreed that my project (wineglass/shoe) had sufficient academic rigour so I am going ahead with it. What I don't want to do, though, is get into the whole business of mind maps. Been there; done that and it doesn't work for me. The point being, I suppose, that I have to knuckle under and overcome an ingrained disaffection for academia. Also had a chat with the glass supervisor whose favourite question is 'why?' Why do I want to blow drinking glasses? I don't know. Because I don't know if I can. I just can't seem to leave it alone. I suppose I want to see how far I can get with an impossibly difficult medium. And I did have a bit of a break-through this week.
