DISCUSSION NOTES (researcher)
Friday 4 March 2022 Supervisory Meeting
Attending:
Lead Supervisor Mark Roughley & LJMU PGR/TT practice-based PhD candidate Gina Dominique
1. Mark and I discussed my February Creative Research Journal and Reading Diary posts. He recommended:
a_ Eduard Pernkopf- "Atlas of Anatomy", which I read up on here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eduard_Pernkopf
b_ Jill Bennett- "Empathic Vision Effect Trauma"
Following the meeting, using this link I ordered it here:
www.sup.org/books/title/?id=7523
c_ Allen Sekula- “The Body and the Archive”, which I downloaded the PDF from here:
monoskop.org/images/6/65/Sekula_1986_Th…
2. To prepare all supervisors for April meeting, since Borinquen was not able to make today's March 4th meeting, I agreed to email both Robyn and Borinquen to meet with me for the already scheduled March 16 meeting.
3. Mark outlined my upcoming Mid-term Progress Review, which will be due in April. He directed me to the LJMU eDoc “Guides" link found at the bottom left-hand eDoc list/column. He clicked on it, opened the “Progress report” form, and pointed out the “500 word box”. He directed me to use bullet points to discuss/highlight the following:
a_ My studio work and literary review reading progress
b_ First semester Transart intensives and LJMU trainings highlights
c_ Next steps: continuation of the practice, interviews with practitioners at “minimal risk”…
d_ Possible conclusion
And finally he stated that I will submit the eDoc form without prior discussion or back-and-forth via Google Docs with Supervisors...prior to next April 8, 2022 Supervisory meeting.
4. For my Progress Review report, Mark requested that the Friday, April 8, 8:00 PM GMT supervisory meeting be scheduled with all 3 of my supervisors, vs the previously scheduled two separate April meetings.
5. Forward looking, and following April’s “Progress Review” submission plus Supervisory meeting to discuss it, Mark advised that I will review the LJMU Ethics site to specifically complete the “Ethics application form & templates". Based on the online a questionnaire directions, beginning June, I will conduct two “interventions” of either "minimal" and/or "low risk". If both both are “minimal”, use one single form. If not, I will complete both two separate forms to:
a_ Write between 20-30 minute semi-structured interviews asking 2-3 questions (qualitative)
b_ Write social media, i.e., Instagram based, survey questions, anticipating (quantitive) responses.
c_ Complete the “Minimal Risk” questionnaire
d_ Delete all of the non-applicable questions (do not write “N/A)
FOLLOWING THE MEETING:
1. Along with ordering recommended books, I emailed Robyn and Borinquen re: both of them meeting with me for the scheduled March 16 meeting, and the one April 8 meeting vs. two different April supervisory meetings. I await their confirmation/responses.
2. Following April’s “Progress Review” eDoc submission and Supervisory meeting, I will complete the LJMU Ethics form/s as outlined above.
