The final part of kickstarting my research was the search engine activity, which involved me taking 3 words or phrases that I found most interesting from my mind map and entering them into a variety of search engines listed by the University. As shown above, my key words / themes were: Society, Logic, and Morality. The first I picked after realising how much society as a whole impacts an individual and their work, the second is something I have always been fascinated in, probably due to my love of debating, and finally the third is something I believe we should all question, especially considering the subjectiveness of morality in a secular society.
The search engines I picked were the following: ‘tate.com’, ‘bbc.co.uk’, and ‘domusweb.it/en’ - the first I am quite familiar with due to A Level Art, the second is one I do not like to visit very often (because of fairly obvious reasons #biased), and for my final search engine, I had chosen an unknown site to try and broaden my findings. Above indicates my rough research, which I intend to explore in the next few posts.
