one thing i’ve never been clear about is when to write an entry for the blog. when i’m in the studio, it seems appropriate to write at the end of the session, the day having been played out.
this morning, i’ve woken up with yesterday only now finishing. i watched glengarry glenross last night, the film version. i was interested in seeing it as i’d seen the set of the stage play while doing my placement from drama school at the national theatre, it stuck with me, i wondered what the script was like. the subject of the script seems in sync with the latest economic construct times.
again i wonder about the whole ‘being critical’ agenda that gets bandied about through out the academic process. no one has ever explained it, so i don’t get it. i need it to be explained, the explanation for this is my disability, which i’m still learning to live with.
my response to not understanding what ‘being critical’ is, is to attempt to be playful with what i make. i’ll be able to talk about it. those who want ‘at a critical level’ will be best to explain themselves as to what they mean by that.
the little film currently in production is beginning to take shape; i’ve seen an invitation to apply for a year long ‘critical’ thingy in London. looking at past participants, i don’t stand a chance, so that’s a good enough reason to try to apply for it.
i’m also realising that i can make a commercial web presence and attempt to sell prints from my research for optimism series. which leads me to think that maybe a site will be required to supplement my current web presence.
indeed, i feel some consolidation is necessary, as i head into my third month of being a graduate.
plans to perform this weekend, an impromptu affair, it’ll be a warm up for next week. can’t remember where the measuring string is, so tuesday will be interesting in a challenging way.
