Why changed？
The first modification was because after submitting the brief, I read the feedback Laura gave me. Laura said It's still quite big and broad, and she ’s concerned at the moment is that I was still taking about gathering more data.This is a good reminder that I already have enough data and it is time for the next stage. However, my question is not very explicit, and I need to make it specific as soon as possible so that the development phase can be carried out smoothly after Easter Break.
Laura reminded me to use One Line Brief: "How might we communicate [what] to [who] through [material / medium / process?" In fact, I have determined this project as a project using photography as the medium after the previous visual research and photography workshop, but it has not been clearly stated, resulting in Laura can't really see the link between my aim and my methods at that moment . So I added the medium: photography. I also added this to my aims.
The second modification was after participating in the studio of Rose in 28/04. After seeing my experiment and photo processing, the group member Amanda said it unclear how my photography expressed the relationship between art and politics. Because my photography is the details of personalized memory reflecting Ego. This reminds me that my theme is "Ego". If I add art and politics to my research question, it will only make my question broader and less specific. The relationship between art and politics is just my motivation. I did research in this area but not necessarily write them all in the question, so I revised my question for the second time, which made my question shorter and clearer.
