"Virginia Wolf famously said that every writer should have a room of her own and the money to live off her work. Along the same vein, I believe every artist and designer should keep a research diary of their own. A research diary or journal is a way to keep a detailed history of research as it unfolds. It provides a reference point for when thoughts changed during the process. It allows to trace the development of research skills and it affords a place to reflect on the work done. In this session we will explore the different ways in which to keep a research diary."
