Notes of tutorial - 9/1/19

Notes of Tutorial – Jill Journeaux, Imogen Racz, Cathy MacTaggart


I went through my activities over the Christmas break: much reading and writing, completed border on Manual Worker Woman sampler, found the font for Ford logo script for alphabet, went to Belfast Linen museum (total disappointment), went to Women & Power exhibition at Mount Stewart House, and Women Printmakers and Fashion & Feminism at Ulster Museum; checked out Redbridge museum as potential art venue – not suitable; have approached Dagenham library, with recommendation as good venue.

JJ confirmed I’d  grasped setting my work in a context.  She said it was time to create the format for the full 20,000 word essay, in order to get the structure right.  Start with all script in (Ford!) blue, then change to black when I think it is sufficiently finessed.  Possibly put right hand column for single word descriptors about the purpose of each paragraph, to identify flow/positioning for each one.  I may use comment function to question myself, when I’m not clear what I’m saying. Create a legend to colour code what the colours mean. Produce first draft by end February.

IR provided Kolb learning cycle for spiral of research and Harvard referencing system.  (IR – your powerpoint slides were fine, and your simple layout and font are easier for people with dyslexia to read).
