Start producing artefact

# data[].attributes.body
Aiming to have main part of written dissertation done/ drafted

# data[].attributes.body
Laptop broke and a lot of progress was lost, but managed to recover some files that were backed up to the cloud

# data[].attributes.body
I begin to start planning what I am going to produce, I still want to make an artefact. The thing about south asian representation within the media is that there is either a lack of it, or when it is there, it is inaccurate/ even offensive.

If I could produce something like a magazine for south asians, as like a platform/ celebration of our culture, I believe this would go perfectly with this brief as it solves problems

Bought new laptop, I think Ive mostly caught up with what I lost

List of south asians (historical legends/ OGs, but also current creatives) may want to include section in mag that sheds light on south asian creatives/ influentials/ unique people (Cockney sikh, Young Singh, The Daytimers, Tara Lily, Bobby Friction, Arran Ashan, Riz Ahmed, MIA)

# data[].attributes.body
Current title is "The British South Asian Diaspora: The history and revival of the South Asian Underground", focusing on the underground subcultures that our diaspora has had.

Thinking of doing a practical based dissertation as the whole thing about the South Asian underground is that it was undocumented, so if I created some form of documentation for it; the old and new scene, it would be more known, and history wouldnt be lost to time

# data[].attributes.body
Title is now "Redefining Boundaries: How to represent the south asian diaspora in media"

# data[].attributes.body
Just looking for south asian design inspiration

# data[].attributes.body
Start sending out emails/ contacting the key figures within this scene

# data[].attributes.body
Watch daytimer sets and mixes. Curate a set of interview questions, curated to each interviewee using knowledge that I have researched

# data[].attributes.body
Gather a list artist from the original and also present-day scene

Research about the history of the movement in depth so I can be prepared for interviews

# data[].attributes.body
I start to realise that I may want to divert the subject of my dissertation from the south asian underground/ revival to "How  is the south asian diaspora represented within western media?"

I believe this is a good choice because the topic still encompasses my previous research however the new topic is still fairly narrow. More importantly it is one I feel more strongly about
