Sunday, 6 May 2012

Monday 30 April – Sunday 6 May


30 Monday April: Updated footnotes for Viv’s forthcoming publication and sent update to Viv. Ordered books. Updated blogs. Asked Viv about ‘Mediascapes’ access.

01 Tuesday May: Viv emailed a recommendation that I ask Ross about ‘Mediascapes’. I emailed to Ross, who recommended both the geography department and Bob. I emailed Bob first, who responded with directions for how to access that application. Paid bills, ran errands. Re-read Ingold’s ideas about objects and agency.

02 Wednesday May: Placed all readings I intend to use of APG into the same file, researched for library texts needed, requested holds be placed on resources, made travel arrangements for London conservation training sessions. There is a film related to my work that I’m having trouble tracking down—will have to find out if our library can somehow obtain/borrow it.  Mom’s birthday, day one.

03 Thursday May: Sorting belongings; discovered old but useful resources in the process. Wrote thank you notes. Mom’s birthday, day two.

04 Friday May: Returned to consideration of ‘agency’. Though there is not directly applicable literature to my heuristic process, the question of ‘agency’ is at the heart of my research therefore, I will make a more thorough explication of that in my work.

05/06 May: Caught up on social media—which in many cases is a very important current resource in ‘research support’ . . . but not really in the case of this past weekend. Was quite important for general peace of mind and well-being so . . . okay, can be viewed, if not as direct ‘research support’, as at least ‘researcher support’.  :)
