Heading up the hill Thursday just before half term thinking about other things to include in assignment 5 thinking about getting the software list together up to date useful for the animation day anyway and in a sense my bibliography the software list is certainly a tool for the work that I do maybe there are other resources that I could get together as well getting hold of Adobe to get the work packs for the teachers ready for Newcastle thinking about the blogs, blogging going through all the adobe blogs and finding the ones that are most relevant looking at Tom's blog as well doing that as he will be teaching me next term make a start on that assignment on narrative I was thinking about other things to include in terms of research the clappy thing that I did last year in flash get that up on to the web site some how and see if it works over the internet because that is sort of related to what I would be doing in Newcastle. In terms of how I present assignment 5 I am thinking that possibly it is not going to be a slide show it would perhaps be an idea to do something with the pulp motion advanced that I have just started on get that into the website somehow the book one in particular or maybe two or three examples but I am running out of things to show I don't want to show a great deal more of my work I don't know what else I would put up there but a few example of aquafadas could go up but in terms of the actual talk I was thinking of literally doing it as a talk just explaining what I am doing the bids maybe have them there actually printed out and the other resource material and do more of a sort of show and tell but I shall wait to see what others have done today this afternoon and adjust what I do accordingly right I didn't want to do too much talking this morning the one that I did from last week took me 20 minutes or so to type up I can say that my typing has improved hugely my touch typing during this exercise and it has been a very interesting way of working using skype for recording my thoughts definitely has to be in there as part of assignment 5 maybe a sort of you know evaluation of the term would be part of it as well it is certainly how - because doing the journal has all been part of my exploration into the media as I have said many times i am sure and working with the skype in thing that came from the Arnolphini exhibition a year ago and thinking about how I can use that in the future thinking more actually about how to get students relating to me over the internet getting a back and forth dialogue going I really do need to get into some of the adobe connect things probably because the software will all be there for me except that of course got to have it all on poor machines and have to have to software on the machines I am far more interested in doing the whole process through the web so that students are responding to me writing in set up sessions for particular projects so that they have to send in their project briefs on line from home from wherever so they have to work in groups rather thank bringing in paper copies they have to do typed copies but copies that can go back and forth so they can improve on them over two or three sessions and then have that to back up their practical work I think that that is very definitely the way that I want to go taking sketchbooks more and more on line part of the reason that I am doing what I am doing here talk about their ideas but going back to how and what I was saying about transcribing because on the website last week pages and pages and pages of my transcriptions now and too much really to go through the thought come out quite slowly as I walk up the hill in some ways the process of writing I find very definitely not like writing a blog where you can get a specific thought down where as the walking up the hill bit is very definitely a ramble so it's just a tool for trying to get thoughts out of my brain and occasionally over this term it has worked extraordinarily well have reached about this point in the walk and things have been dawning but over the last week or so I have been really pushing the limits getting up very early in the morning with exam marking and interviews an all the gruesome stuff that goes on I really notice that my brain is not working as well as it used to either it was very funny recording thoughts in the middle of the night and then listening back to them and seeing how very slow my brain was working when I was almost asleep so lots of interesting things have come out of it I am not sure to what extent I want to repeat this experiment I am going to have to think about how I am going to take the journal on next term maybe how I change it how I make it more concise or maybe I shall go back to paper I am thinking again that I have loads to type out so I am going to stop and just think a while
