Infographics and Infogasms - PhD...A worthwhile pursuit into the unknown

So an interesting week seeking advice and direction with regard to further research and the possibility of a PhD; all inspired by the 'Transformative Practice' Conference at DJCAD 6-7 June 2016. http://www.dundee.ac.uk/djcad/events/
The Keynote speakers Dr Sunil Manghani (University of Southampton) suggested that we take notes in the form of drawn 'infographics....this is the second time I have heard this phrase. The first being at Pecha Kucha a couple of weeks ago by speaker Reif Larsen

(Paraphrasing Larsen) "an INFOGASM  is information in an Infographic format....providing an immediate sense of 'Wow!!!!.I now understand EVERYTHING'....followed by an acute drop off coupled with "Wait...do I actually know ANYTHING?!!!"

Here are my infographic notes upon the breadth and depth to an Arts Phd....I love the image at the top of the jetty facing towards an unknown shore, with the caption "A Worthwhile Pursuit of the Unknown!"
