Hi all,
Well even bribery of dinner can help to help fix a stuff up. Somehow I have managed to download off the video memory card and whilst it is in my computer and also on the card I can not get it open. Thanks again Theresa for giving up your time to try and figure out I have done with the footage- now to be know as currently lost in cyber space.
I will take to works I.T. department and see what they can do next week. But as we are fast running out of time thought I would try with DVD footage that I already have of the last Youth Day Out and of the last project I ran with Christian of developing graffiti art with a group of young people. But I couldn't get this to work either- this is very frustrating. I just wanted to give people a visual of where the second part of the project is heading and what it will look like.
Whilst it is not the young people from this project it is where we are heading, and I felt that I needed to give this project blog some clarity. But alas this part of my project plan didn't go according to the project plan that I had originally.
Today at the library I was chatting with an ex member of our class re my blogging and project. She raised with me one concern that she had had and that is what happens if you start a project, get everyone involved and then as your semester ends- you leave. We discussed the concerns of the issues of beginning projects and leaving communities in the lurch when for us our time is up. This can do more damage than having done nothing at all leaving behind a very sour feeling in the community. I am aware of this as an issue but I have to say t was not something that I had considered in beginning this project, mostly because I was lucky enough to have a project that will continue past the end of the semester, and even beyond me in my position- it is a long term commitment between the service, the organisational and the school to continue to develop projects together into the future. And the second part of the project will definitely drag out past the end of semester when it rolls into action, but I am ok with this as it is a long term committed project I am aiming for.
