This time from Sep to December seems to quiet and a bit like 'limbo'.
With the fact that we are supposed to be working on the Citizen Journalism project and 'thinking' about our group project?...
I am feeling frequently more distant from the other students on the course and I may have ostracise myself anyway...but the lack of dialoug and discussion about ideas and projects intended for the 'group project' is worrying and at the same time disheartaning.
I seem to have too many ideas and directions when I really want to just find some purity and simplicity in my work now. I am also worried about the lack of exposure of new 'good' photographers etc...
I am working on my Immigrants project and today I had a real shock!...a flatmate of mine from Brazil who i'd being photographing was taken away by Immigration today, up to 15 people came into my house, banged around and opened bedroom doors!....they asked me for my passport, then interrogatted me!.....I never saw hinm go..they just said: well you wont see him again, I said who? they said youre friend .....then tried to get more information out of me....they were polite I guess and didnt destroy anything..its just a shock! and a bite of reality., I didn't get to say goodbye and I was made to feel like he was just like a drug dealer or something !.....
