This practice research PhD centres around gathered sound (and imagery) from spaces/situations and working with and through those as an embodied maker/researcher; following my affect sensing nose (an affect heuristic?) to explore microperceptions as triggers of non-conscious affective response to elements in the world + how this informs and extends my approach to constructing ‘sound sculptures’ as new spaces for bodily encounter. This is a subjective exploration from my crip/neurodivergent position. working with things gathered and building with/upon other's thinking and doing using approaches developed from my art-making practices. It utilises mutable, flexible scaffolds to support ‘construction’ and working with all the materials (+me) retaining potentials/possibilities for affective response + atmospheres.

This page will be for materials gathered - when / if I ever get going again!
But the paln is that I will make some peices really exploring my close everyday space - so concentrating on 'my' common place and author in work? my influance, imact etc. on what I make.

This section - in lots of way is what I hope will become my 'conclusion'. It is going to be made though a thinking about what has come from all teh previous 'spaces' of resurch / working. It will utilise the extended understanding I now have to process and practaces of the doing. But it will of course be influenced by the now situation of pandemic...
I am still shealding, and will be for a while... so this is a gathering closer (towrds a something? a compleation of works? an end... ) but also a gathering closly - in terms of the considering - in a focused way for me... and also an exploring through the doing of the few spaces that have been my phisicall world for the last 18 months. So looking at my work room and some otehr spaces at home, our garden and then spreding (in a controlled way) to my studio an dour allotment... there might be a addition of a couple of more spaces.... But I dont know as yet if I will be able to get to themm..
The aim is to utilise what learned, and to try and understand it again and develop thinking again through teh doing..
I plan to use this RC page as a sort of noting down area - and a place t pt what done an ddoing - a laying out as a diagram / map... so that it is all drawn togetehr as doing happens and not retrospactivly...
This does mean taht teh reflection will be quick and close on what doing - and with a greater distance on what previously done...
but as always this is a developing thing - so it will change an dhow I do it will... but I also want to capture that in teh notes...
