In-Sighting
‘In-Sighting` can be interpreted notionally as - exploring research.
Though a practising architect, Sean understands that he is not a researcher in the normative academic or institutional way and therefore uses ‘In-Sighting' as a way of acknowledging those projects, events and investigations, which emerged during the course of his research experience and which as a result, contributed to steering or initiating paths of exploration.
In presenting these in conjunction with his introspections on the context in which he was operating, Sean attempts to document a discovered curiosity related to options in research practice, pertaining to its machinations, resonance, ethics and aesthetics.
