Research proposal.

The subject matter of this new brief is..
Ian Curtis

Possible categories and interrelationships I can look at will be...
Music,media,Parenthood,suicide,the music industry,

Research Processes will include..
Primary methods - Interviews with people on opinion about his music
Do they know who he is
Do they know about his life not just his music.

Lyrics,books,blogs,music forums

Research processes will include...

Photography of his house in 77 Barton Street, Macclesfield, Manchester to get a sense of his surroundings and what he
was faced with everyday he walked out the front door.
Interviews with people of leeds and birmingham and manchester,where Ian was from
to get some knowledge out of people.See how much they know about this almost forgotten legend.
See if his name still lives on though music influences and have people had the same life experince as Ian or Debrah (His wife)
