Right, so I need to make this a habit. During this summer period, I've had a little time to reflect back on the previous project and see the main things I need to improve, so I've got a little list of things that I should go over. One of my main weaknesses is my time management, so after a long time and a couple conversations, I've gotten a solid time plan in place for the next couple weeks and I have a generally good idea of the amount of time I am going to need in order to approach this project as best as I can. Secondly is consistency and rate of which my work comes out. Now this one may sound a little odd, but at this current moment in time, I have had a bad habit of only posting once every couple days in worse circumstances even weeks? This creates a number of issues, the main one being having a steady workflow becomes almost impossible to maintain because getting into the correct state of mind with these massive drop offs, rather than consistent updates...

So, I've made some developments on the dissertation, using the material I have got, the presentation and this method called 'The Cone of Cogency'. Using this method I have been able to put together what I believe is an accurate representation of what my final chapter structure for my dissertation will look like. Presentation by Thomas Mayfield on Scribd The presentation allowed me to show my resources, research material and general theme for the topic. This presentation can act as a bibliography for the rest of the dissertation as well as an influence map. Books/Quotes 1. Robots: The Quest for Living Machines (1992) Chapter 7 Pg: 194-203 Quote 1.

"For example one scientist, Joel Kingsolver, has noted that the techniques used in butterfly feeding and thermoregulation exploit physical principles that can be found 'in the operation of many machines. When we explore specific biological strategies in detail, we encounter a close adherence to what a tightly engineered design makes possible. The characteristics of constituent materials, for instance, are exploited to make biological systems as resilient as possible." ~ Geoff Simons (19...
