Week 7: Class Exercise 05

There is only one class exercise that we need to do for today which is the random association exercise.

We have to create SCARY images or object that will fear among people through out the ages. It means that not only it will be understandable by this generations but also the future.

The random words given is: Kitten

Firstly, we need to find the characteristics of the kitten.



Association:

1) Eye = the cat's uniqueness is in the eyes.
2) Scratch = they have long nails.
3) Street = they can be seen anywhere on the street.
4)Meowww = how they sound.


In practice: What might this mean?



I have problem to scan the picture that I drew in class. So I have to draw it again using paint. It is almost the same like this.

From my point of view, I think that people are mostly scared by the cat's eyes because it looks somehow scary rather than it's claw.

Week 7: Random Word Or Image Association

What we have learn in class today was about random words and image association. It is actually about idea generation method which allows student to systematically generate new ideas through a fixed formula.

Roughly, this is basically the formula mentioned above. How the problems were sent to the right brain to be analysis and how it will be reviewed creatively by the left brain and so on.

It is true that more good ideas will be generated if we somehow look for..



This is the correct way to search or find the solution in order to solve any problems. We cannot view and judge from one side only. This is what we called by random words.

The idea of random words is to provoke and to make us move from the normal mode that we are used to it and the same stuffs that we usually do.

Week 6: Class Exercise 04

For this class exercise, we have to write a short statement or a poem that described the concept of LOVE, LIFE, and WOMAN or MAN.

So, this is basically what I wrote to describe love with chili.

Love is like a chili.
Red chili are hot,
Small green chili even hotter.
The hotter the chili,
The more people will like it.
Just like love.
The more pain it gives us,
The stronger we get.



The second one is the same with the previous exercise. Except for this one, we have to relate
So, here it goes.

Life is expensive,
Just like sports car.
So people,
Enjoy every minute of it,
Live life to the fullest.
Because,
Life does not require a license.



Last but not least, the third exercise is to relate

This is what I have written.

Some men are nice,
While some are not.
They smells, they stinks,
Just like garbage.
That should be disposed,
Forever and ever.


Hehe, I'm not really good at writing poem or sentences actually. Have to practice more.
:)

Week 6: How Mergers Go Wrong

This week is about how mergers go wrong. It just can't happen when two things which don't suits each other were to be combined.

We were asked by Mr Bedu to pick out randomly any two animals and combined it together so that we could understands better and get the message.

So, I chose a cat and a snake.

A cat's head with a snake's body. Scary and weird isn't?
Can you imagine?
They just don't looks good together.
And for sure, this kind of animal won't survive for a long time because they are totally different physically and the way they live.

Mr Bedu gave us some example; A fish's head and a bird's body.
What is he trying to say is that two animals from two different environment cannot be mergers together because it results crap.
Fish cannot survive when exposed to air while birds cannot live underwater.

Get the point?

Week 5: Class Exercise 03

Week 5: Juxtaposition

Class was fun because Mr Bedu gave us short lecture and fun class exercise. There was supposed to be another exercise but half of the class already went back as they thought the class already finished.

Moving on, what we have learn in class today is basically about 'Juxtaposition'.
What is juxtaposition?

From my understanding, the definition of juxtaposition is placing two variables side by side, and the contrast and also the similarity are shown through some comparison. And the two words must make sense.

For example, "stupid like a dog". Does it sound normal and make sense to you? We know that dog is an animal but are they stupid? If so, there will be no such phrase such as dog is man's best friend.




But, it do make sense if the sentence is for example, " stupid like a cow".



It sounds normal and people will easily get the point.

Week 4: Class Exercise 02

Class exercise 02 is a LOGICAL mind-map that we have to do in class about

"EVIL ME".
It is about our weaknesses, dark side, and any other things. Not necessary to write the negatives side about ourselves.

And this is "EVIL ME"
