dissertation presentation

Well I have had a chance to talk about my dissertation with Franc, it was less of a presentation more of a discussion which I have to say was pretty helpful although I cant say that I am still 100% but I am definitely more focussed than before. I have been thinking about lots of different aspects that I could explore for a dissertation and Franc basically said that I had too many ideas and that i just had to pick one! so he helped me think about which one I would find most interesting and I am now working on the idea of 'the economic impact of the 2012 Olympic games on small cultural events'. Obviously I will only be able to base this on the lead up to the event. Franc suggested my objectives could be the following; To find out availability of cultural funding, to identify the bodies that fund local cultural events. I am looking at doing some triangulation research by interviewing someone from a local government council (outside of London), someone from the Olypics and someone like an outside, independent cultural event organiser and see how this is effecting them all. I think it would be helpful to talk to Jmes about this as well, hopefully before my initial reasearch proposal is due. I have also been researching Journals that may be if use to me, ones that are about past olympics and the other Mega events' impacts on society. I am unsure as to whether I am kind of trailing off from the whole funding aspect of my idea and think that I am still a little wide with my thoughts!
