GATHERING, SENDING, COLLECTING, SURPRISED...Monday session around the roles of data and analysis/Module 3

 Tonight I felt a bit discouraged discussed, shared thoughts, engaged in discussion, whatever we call this type of gathering. I must say, it was again very informative and useful. I have to say also that this Module I feel very overloaded with information and put every data in the right box. I am aware that we are just scratching the surface and this is just a journey, etc,  and yes I am enjoying and going through different landscapes but still I really want this journey end well and in a qualitative way, cause in the end, my methodology is driven by qualitative aspect of the research. I am combining action research and grounded theory so participants could continue to review, evaluate, request and improve practice either just keep questioning and examine the findings of participant observation and then proceeds to the analysis of those findings before any other data are collected. I will also involve reflective autobiography and interpretation of personal experience with the help of research diary to illustrate embodiment through fluidity more truthfully. During the research project I will use desk-based research of existing/available information, systematic literature reviews, policy analysis, studio inquiry and semi-structured interviews and case study (in-depth investigations of a single person, group may require observations and interviews). This planned analysis during 5 weeks (I needed to rescheduled my research cause there in no time for longer digestion) I will use for my Independent Professional Practice Project in next Module. That would be reflection on my inquiry.
So, like I said I am in the middle of my research and still collecting, tomorrow I am going through another phase and new experience of gathering data cause from this perspective I can see that each phase will be different, unexpected with interesting information and participants,  something I really can not but DO NOT WANT control, cause that will not be a quite research. I am also reflecting into my practice, experience and finding also new facts about embodied fluidity not just through the body, even through the words and maybe I am so overloaded with so many information because I love digging, and being curioser, deepening my understanding and being flexible in both way:)) but this put me in a very tense situation, I am letting go but still loosing my balance while doing it. I am still working on all 7 phases of embodied flow in motion and I am trying to navigate very generous, spontaneous and naturally to myself and my participants, we are still shaping class together and trying to figure out how we can acknowledge this flow in a qualitative way. One question appeared on our last zoom class, 'Is there intimacy without proximity?' So, this is what I am talking about, among all my set of questions some new ones appearing on each class and that is wonderful, cause with that kind of attitude we are actually going through living phenomenology and so many possibilities and active thinking. To bring a consciousness to a process, active and proactive thinking make my research more attune into the somatics and philosophical understanding.  Research via ZOOM has advantages but also disadvantages for this kind of research. However, still I think I will have enough information to put something profound in conclusion and introduce some valuable experiences of my lovely participants, my reflection on my practice and analysis I have collected from literature too.  

What are your thought about data and analysis?
