Persons of note research crit

The crit has made me realised that I have narrowed down my understanding of Carl Sagan too much. I have focused on one or two achievements in his life as apposed to looking at communicating him as a whole person. From now on I want to focus more on what he fundamentally strove to do throughout all his work. As I said in the briefing I want to be 'evoking meaning rather than just bodly presenting the truth'. 

Speaking to other people who had also researched Carl Sagan helped me massively in this crit. They gave me new ideas and understanding of who he was and what he stood for: A dreamer, sense of wonder, the curiosity of man, the unknown, humans making a mark.

I did, however, get some positive feedback in response to the work I had already done and my research. I think I will continue with my idea of using collage and shape in a slightly abstract and ambiguous way as this is a medium I would like to explore more and also something I believe is appropriate to this subject matter.
