Meeting with my tutor Jaygo Bloom

It was very helpful to meet my tutor Jaygo Bloom after receiving the brief. I have to admit that I have been a bit confused with my thoughts about creating a viral video/picture etc.

I feel that my natural environment is the streets. If I was to create something for an audience that would definitely be people on the street. A funny intervention, a comment on architecture or the invitation to an urban activity would be the kind of approach I would normally have to this brief.

Talking with Jaygo made me realize that this is exactly what I should go for. Being concerned with the whole viral idea made me sink more and more in the worldwide web , spending hours watching videos of random stuff that would lead me basically nowhere. Or in another sense it did lead me, to the fact that this is not the response I would like to have to the brief.

After the meeting I valued more the way I am spending my time. I have been spending (if not wasting) most of my internet time on checking for feedback on platforms where I post my work - that is mostly graffiti and illustrations- rather than focusing on ways to tackle the brief and ultimately finding what I have to say to the world.

I am determined in setting a weekly schedule for myself (which may come natural for other students).

I kept excusing myself for 'adapting' during the first term , although, inside of me I know very well how unorganized I am and how I get distracted with so many things I like. Our MA Leader, Paul Fieldsend - Danks during our assessment feedback made me realize the importance of focusing on one particular thing during the course. I feel like I have been more organized in general , compared to our previous term, yet I see that there is a lot of space for focusing on more specific interests.
