Meeting with Val Kirby and Max Comfort to plan the next steps of the Weave. It was important for me to clarify my role in terms of my PhD research and to find ways of contributing whilst staying focused. Undoubtedly I will also “gift” time that falls beyond the strict remit of my PhD but this needs to be carefully watched and seen as “additional to” rather than “taken for granted”. This relationship with co-researchers is a central issue to my practice as an artist/action researcher and I have been reading texts on it from the Sage Handbook of Qualitative Research.
