This is a new and challenging concept for me. I tend to shut myself off from the outside and not share my writing until I have something that is worth reading. However, Chris has been very insistent that we post on the blog to track our information for this semester's research project. So, I have thus resigned myself to posting work in progress. (Cringes.)
The assignment? Research an area of the arts in Seattle that is of personal interest for the researcher, find and interview artists involved in that respective field, and eventually write a profile specifically detailing one or more individual artists among those interviewed to be printed in a book at the end of the year. Not at all a daunting task!
My area of interest is the theater community in Seattle- along with two colleagues who are also studying in the theater department at Cornish. This past Friday, the three of us went together for our first interview. It went very well, everyone involved had a good time. The interviewee was a joy to talk with, and provided a lot of interesting and useful information. I came up with a few in-depth questions on the fly, which makes we wonder why I have had such trouble with formulating premeditated questions.
