As I sadly fall behind in my content generation, I must now reflect on how my project has changed since creating my map all those weeks ago.

Looking back, I’ve only now come to realise just how much my project has narrowed since I started. My initial vision was far too broad and thus would’ve been unlikely to reach anywhere. 

However, I’d argue it still contains a lot of value. For instance, I’m now reminded of my intention to discuss the introduction of specific genres. This is something that I did touch on during my essay on Bob Dylan, but there’s a very good chance I was going to neglect that thread moving forward. It has also reminded me where to search for those in the community for which I’m making my content for. The conversations I would find on Reddit were what led me to want to do this project. I plan for this epiphany to guide me as I begin to promote my content on Reddit in the near future.

So clearly this map continues to be “ordinarily accessible and usable” (Campbell, M & Gregor, F 2002). I hope to continue to explore my project by taking into consideration just how much further I can possibly take it. 

I should also add that, going forward, I will be referring to my project as ‘The Birth of Art Rock’, or just Art Rock for short. The term Classic Rock refers to a much broader landscape of music than what I originally had in mind, and I’ve observed some confusion concerning that in the recent past.
