Initial thoughts.

The conversation within my thesis group was different from past critiques.  I now have the attention of artists from mediums other than photography and that is exciting!  I haven't had the opportunity to discuss my work with others too much and I'm curious as to how effective we can be for one another as it is in fact the most important project here at Mason Gross.

I've explained to my group and to James what a pivotal time these past months and onward will be.  My life has undergone the most dramatic and ever so positive change I could have ever hoped for (after an almost 20 year struggle)--timing couldn't be any more sweet. There will be a direct correlation between this and my work this year.  As a result, my head has been ssssspinning these past few days.  I'm determined to push my ideas to evoke as strong a feeling as I am experiencing on a daily basis.  I feel like it is the strongest point to branch my ideas from.

Some questions that I have been and will continue to consider are:

What exactly has changed. A very broad question indeed but it is a starting point.
How did I induce change? Variables.
What sort of relationships have helped/deterred throughout this looooong journey?
What situations reoccurring/not are significant?
What are some images/visual/audio etc. remembered?
How does the present differ from day one, week 5, year 17? Stages/Phases.
How much do I want to reveal to my audience? Degree of ambiguity.
How does it appeal universally?

These are just a few to get me thinking as there is a lot of work/research to be done.

Considering performance as well--a first.  Also considering video.
