Yesterday was another top-notch day: it was my first day at the Rix centre, part of east London University specialising in multimedia advocacy. They create a lot of cool stuff, from ipad apps to films, advocating for people with disabilities, their rights and needs. Working there is right up my street, although it is a huge departure from the subject of my thesis, so now I need to refocus and get up to speed quickly. That shouldn’t be too hard, and I’m eager to get stuck in. I’ll probably go over there quite frequently in the next few weeks, just to get acquainted with the people, their methods and so on. This is an awesome opportunity, and I can’t believe my luck that it came my way.
