Week Forty | Video Feedback
I have thoroughly enjoyed this exercise and wish only we had been doing it on a regular basis. Had we had this interaction with one another from the start I do believe we would have had greater simpatico and understanding amongst the group. The blog is too hard to keep up with on a regular basis for so many students and this is a great way to support one another on our journey. I feel now I am only just starting to get to know the other students in the final hurdle.
I had my feedback today and it was fine. I would love more rigorous, probative, challenging feedback but it’s just thumbs up for now. I found others’ videos more useful to learn from than my own but I will go back and read the comments more carefully. I liked JK’s observation about phraseology, which is important and I spend as much time on the words as the art. I think ‘discarded limbs’ strikes me too and the Tapestries of Spent Being is something I have long wondered whether this will form the basis of my major work in the new year. I wrote about the Bayeux Tapestry early on as a long, continuous narrative, which I would like to explore and have been skirting around for years.
Feedback to capture
Questions around the colour choices - definitely on my mind as I really hate the brown everywhere. I have been thinking about how to make them more indigo or look into colour fields in the compost
I really liked Holly’s question about how much I am really moving from looking into participation. I still don’t really understand my own goal here of how to do this so it’s a really good question. One to return to **
Martina picked up on my interest in science, bones and the chemistry of rotting. I think I have a fear that there’s something a bit psychopathic in seeing death this way so I suppose I have been a bit embarrassed about this interest. I find it comforting.
I liked Terrye’s comment about using a microscope - I think the children have a basic one I could play around with and it’s definitely cropped up before here.
