Extended Project:Part One


1)I have some ideas for my extended project:
I am going to return to Warsaw in July to continue work on the Chechen Refugees, also travelling to the border with Belarus to document the border and the train from Belarus to Warsaw.

2) Also hopefully i will travel into Belarus to find the Chechen Refugees that are travelling to Poland.
With the hope of selling the work, i will visit some friends of friends in Minsk to document the Kupalla Pagan Festival and also document some daily life/travel in Belarus with aview to returning in the Winter.
Possibly i can supply some images of Summer in Belarus through Demotix etc..any advice and outlets that may publish the work and any links to photographers who have made work in Belarus appreciated.

3) Continue with Excelsior Days and Polish Away for my own personal use and maybe i will be able to use it for projects on next years terms.

Extended Project Part Two/Presentation Ideas:

If anyone is interested and Paul says its possible?.....
i am thinking of a collabrative presentation for the extended project hand in...maybe im jumping the gun?......
But if 2-3 people have inter-related projects as mine....can we or could we produce a group hand in, in the form of a web page or a book through on of the book producing websites and share the costs?...
Possible i can bring this up on the Next Base Camp session....


Last Point:

I will raise this as a discussion on Ning, but all these extra web based applications such as Diigo and Twitter etc.....what exactly is the purpose and implementation of these applications for our MA course etc?....
Honestly i still havnt got around understanding the use and relevance of these applications in relation to our studies yet!...call me a fool or just a ageing luddite, but could someone explain it to me please!......
If any of them will for go the need to write a horrendously boring and tediouse dissertation for this course, im happy?......
