dee's research non-update.

earlier, i mentioned that i would discuss my research with everyone on this blog. however, up until yesterday, i figured that the research is a little too sensitive -- not in content, but in the context of where it is to be presented -- to disclose at this point. thus, i'd only put up my findings and writings for this paper when the whole event has passed.

for now, all i can say is that it's lent me some new insights into the degrees of conservation, not all of which i agree with. i'd always been one to deeply appreciate the inevitable decay and eventual destruction of any built project.

sensitive discussion aside, this research stint invigorates me as it brings me to other aspects of my elements. as i move towards completing my two-week stint, i'm beginning to wonder if this were indeed the life i'd like to lead. whilst i do see myself in practice full-time, i do not see myself limited to only my practice; design as bottom-liner, but a whole lot of reading and writing, and maybe some teaching as well. in many ways, i do gravitate towards (among other examples) eisenman's model of an academic practitioner.
