Thoughts about the Masters
I did a bit of thinking about my Masters while I was away in Sydney.
The first thing is that I'm going to dump the current research topic and replace it with:
Transgendered Art: looking at the altered self
An investigation into both art that focuses on altered and variant genders, and art created by transgendered persons, with a focus on comics and illustrative works.
This makes better sense when my work is two graphic novels that are directly related to Transgender concepts and themes. It'll also be easier to research (I had no idea about methodology for the previous topic), maintain and present.
The second thing is in organising my research and time at university. I have two graphic novels and a research paper to do. It seems clear to me now that staying home to do these is problematic. There are too many distraction and issues here to do this properly. So, what I will do is go to university at least three days each week, and each day will be devoted to one of the above.
I stand a better chance of completing them if I do this, I know I will. And I know I need to start doing this now.
