reiterations

One common feature in a lot of tree architecture, and the starting point for Halle’s starting discovery, is reiteration. That’s when there are several copies of one of the architectural models within a single tree, as when a branch looks like a seedling, but growing out of the tree rather than the ground.

That tree is rife with reiteration. Reminds me of this process of knocking out a solid dissertation proposal. I presented my ideas tonight – I’m grateful for the process my university offers me, of receiving feedback from my peers and doctoral seminar professor as I go through the development stage of this proposal. I’m also grateful for, and I mentioned it this morning but I’ll say it again, Chris Parson‘s feedback. He’s been instrumental in helping me to refine my thoughts after v.1 and into v.2.

My presentation is done, for now :) I presented this evening and have a lot to think about now. Lots of good feedback, that I’ll add in another post tomorrow. Most of it was about continuing to refine what exactly I’m looking for.

Not sure if refining what I’m looking for is what I need to be doing… but I’ll return to that idea in the next iteration. There is something that does not sit right with me about deciding too much in advance. Again, I need to come back to it.

Initial impressions? I’m slightly more overwhelmed than I was before I presented. What seemed to almost be coming into focus exploded with the different possibilities offered to me during the seminar. I am also rather exhausted, which is why I’m going to return to this after a sleep or two. And see what new iteration will grow from my trunk.

Here’s the visual presentation that illustrated my little chat.
