My Practice (updated)

Considerations, of possible questions arising from my practice have been somewhat allusive. My intention was to study the current relationship between reality and fiction however the notion of defining reality (or probably hyperreality now) is somewhat daunting (2-3 millennia's worth of philosophers have not managed to do this so why should I be able to?) I could, of course, take, for example, Baudrillard's interpretation of hyperreality and study this in relation to the notion of simulated experiences (which I will be to an extent).

Another choice, is to take my practice as simply living (both fictionally and non-fictionally) and documenting this process. Then, using specific points within this life to initiate research, for instance, I have been involved in a debate with one of my OU students about objectivity within Creative Writing assessment and this itself could instigate research that I'd like to do involving a reader-centered approach to understanding the theory of Creative Writing. Of course, I can then conduct meta-research in relation to this, observing the relationship between life and research - The real research becomes subsumed into a fictional / real narrative making it as much a part of the story as any other bit. This then, might lead me to create a fictional response to a research questions (openly fudge a load of results) and get somebody to analyse these to observe if there was any correlation between my fictionalised responses and the real responses.
