Week 11: Reflection & Review

Hey there =D

Now, I want to review and reflect about all of my Creative thinking activities =)


                                        
   The first assignment ,which is the journey,i really get the way i want to sense everything now .. the way i've heard things,touch things ,smell,see things has changed so far .. i'm more respect to how my senses works now and also more aware to my environment from now on and sometimes i would like to do a yoga thing which is shut my brain and close my eyes so i'll be more focusing to my senses ..=)


                                           
       My second assignment is the one i used to have difficulty which is Brainstorming ,but now ,i feel like i think more positive about it because for me,come up with thousand of imaginative ideas become a lot easier ,i also think fastly about how i'm going to do for my creative thinking assignments and other lessons's assignments .. It's amazing how i developed myself from the very beginning that i got so many lack of ideas and having insecurities of thinking outside the box but i've changed how my mind works by more open minded ,and also think out of my comfort zone ..i'm a Fine art student so i probably need this creativity exercises to catch so many of creative and innovative ideas to draw and to paint .. cause without any outside the box ideas .. there won't be any art piece and it could improve the way i express myself..=)

                                     
      My third assignment is Rules have been broken ,which is the one that i really liked about because i could explore all people in creative line even though i have a different major than them but i could really see their works that's also outside the box and broken the normal boundaries in so many ways .. this assignment really helped me through be more inspired by those people who have so many unfamiliar and extraordinary gift to express something in a different way than what others usually do.


                         
        My fourth assignment is The mind maping.. and for real, this one is giving me the ability to show more my creative ideas more than the brainstorming because i've been develop much more since then and this assignment also teach me how to get more ideas from one particular thing and i also get to develop many things for the themes ..i really enjoyed it .


                          
         My fifth assignment is Breaking the rules part 2 .. it was fun like before (i mean the part 1 ) but i'm more comfy with how the artist has to be from the same major so it helped me a lot to figure out how the artist break the rules because i could also learned how to do the things they do with their own perpective .


                                         
         My sixth assignment is  Lateral thinking which is i can learn how to break the rules through my unique ideas to solve a problem ahead of me .. it was intriguing and really get me to push myself to come up with different ideas that seems impossible but could solve the problem by expressing my ideas.. i'm more relax now about making ideas in my head ,it seems so fun for me now =D


                           
         My seventh assignment is Pareidolia ,which is something that i love the most ,because of it i gain more my perspective to some stuff that i didn't realize that it has a meaning behind it if i can imagine it become something  scuh as a face or an other object . it really helped me to get my attention to the things i met everyday and also appreciate it .=)


                                                   
         My eighth topic is Analogy ,which is very interesting cause it made me become more imaginative cause i can compare any object even though it sounds unbelievable perpective so i'm still learning about this one so i can do analogy exercise easier .. but it was an awesome to get introduced to this cool activities .. i really enjoyed it .      

 
         My last exercise is Forced connection .. basically for me all these exercises are bounding towards one and another cause i have to use our imagination and creativity as an art student who have to improve our ability to get some new creations that i'll create someday .. and for this one ,it was fun for me
cause i have to connect some random objects with adjectives or some particular personalities but now that i've got many exercises about how to forced connect things ,it's getting a lot easier for me to connect and make me realize that connecting something with another thing is very meaningful because i got to understand how the contrast between them .=)

        So ,that's all that i've learned and reflected from Creative thinking lesson and activities..
For me ,this creative thinking makes me more open minded towards everything ,appreciate little things and the meaning behind it , make me push myself to open up my crazy and exciting ideas that i've never known it were all there .. just need to exercise more in thinking more creatively about everything and

MAKE THE IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE =)

FORCED CONNECTION - FOOD

Hey again there...=)

   This blog will probably be my last blog so hope you guys will love my last topic which is Food..

i know you'll wondering what would it be ..

                                

    Let me tell you how this food game works .. Well,we had to do this combining one type of food to another but it could only be 2 different food though .. At the beginning of the game ,Miss Ho,My Creative lecturer showed us so many photos of food's and all we have to was combined the 2 food together to make a good combinations to eat or it should be a good seller kind of food .=D haha

    So,before i want to go on to tell you about the assignment's going ,i want to introduce my group members : Me,JAcob,TAsha,and Femi .. Well ,the truth is what we were trying to do for this assignment is pretty much easy .. So,first of all we imagined how delicious two of those many ingredients together  would be and we were also figured it out by the taste which means .. If one of the ingredients is salty ,the other one should be something sweet to make it contrast to each other ..
I know it sounds difficult but the truth is we were so happy about this one cause as you know me and my group members like to taste any food so we all know very much about the taste that could be mixed together nicely without even have to like cooking stuff =D

So we came up with all these ideas.. Check it out ..










And these are my favorites..=D

                  

                     

                                 



                     


                               


                                

               In the meantime ,There's also some photos of other friends's works that i want to show cause i know  how they work the things out with their own group members..=)

For me ,This combining food exercise is also very good to develop my creativity  even though it's quiet simple but i really do think that it's very useful to think the simplest things first to get our mind exercised before i get in to something that's more complicated .. this assignment also helps me in create something new by combining foods together .. it's awesome for me to experienced these all new assignments from Creative thinking .. i've been developed in so many ways so far .. i also see things differently now .. How i can improve myself from the baby steps to the bigger one ..=)

FORCED CONNECTION- Emotions & Object =D

Haloha there..=)
  
   I think this one is gonna be my second last blog for my creative thinking assignment ..so hope you guys won't miss reading my blogs that much.. just kidding though..=D

    So,My second last topic for this blog is about " Forced Connection"..
First of all,i know u guys might be confused what does it mean anyway.. ;)

   Well,my own conclusion about Forced connection is some kind connecting something or some random object with some characteristics even though it doesn't seem connected but we have to use our own imagination to create something in mind that make sense.. =D

I got some of my own " Forced connection" that i want to show it to u guys .. =)
Here they aree...

1# photo:for the close up

    So ,Cause you guys have seen it  ,now i want to explain u guys why was i drawing those pencils as they are ..

    Well, I drew that pencil for passionate character cause passionate is about having that excited feeling inside us so i drew the pencil straight ahead like sort of  a pencil that's trying to stab something which means that is how excited/passionate related to the pencil itself (at least for me ,it's ok =P)

     Second of all .. i drew  a pencil for the creative part (first row ,right side) with more colorful and curvey to show that creativite means we push our own imaginations with some our brain's flexibility to come up with something creative and original ..B-)

     Third of all.. I drew a pencil for hard working(second row,left side) like that because i want to show that no matter scars all over the pencil and how rusty it is to even trying to write something on .. I believe that with our hard work ,We can always get through every single challenge in front of us >=O

     4# I drew the pencil to show sad feeling(second row, right side) with making it looks like its headed down and i also drew the pouring water to show how the pencil always producing tears all the time because of unsatisfied feeling, sad,broken hearted,feeling blue,feeling like it's the only one that's not perfect and alone all the time,and etc.. I want to show the sad emotions so i coloured it with gloomy colors like blue ,grey,black and many others. =(

     5# I drew that pencil for greediness (last row,left side).. I drew it that way because the usual pencil only has 1 sharp point and in the mean time  ,I made the pencil has 3 sharp edges to show the greedy side to it for wanting more and more without any limitations or balance.=O

     Last one : I made that "Brave pencil" (last row,right side )with some brave colors  that has the brightness to it ,like pink,purple,and etc.. I also made it very muscular cause brave is about pushing ourself out of the limits so i want to show that the pencil has the strong characteristic to win all it's own battle .=D

    From this assignment ,i really improved myself by thinking all the possibility to connect an object with characteristics that seems impossible but it's also very creative and unbelievably eccentric in some ways.=D

Hmmm.Well,that's it .. =)
I just hope that it can make me improve my creativity in so many ways so it would be so useful in my life and also yours..=)

Thanks for reading and.. happy finding random objects to be forced to connect with  =D

Analogical Thinking - BREATHE THROUGH COCA COLA (Poster+video)

Heiii Theree....=D

      I wanna tell u guys bout this quite unique assignment which is me and my group: Me,Tasha,Jacob,and Femi got an assignment to make some kind of poster or a video to show that Coca Cola is contained by oxygen.. =D

    After that ,We decided to make a video and also a poster .. And we also divided the task between Me and Jacob mainly do and take care of the coca cola video and, Femi and Tasha will do the poster But i also helped femi and tasha though .. so We (femi,tasha,me) came up with this whole idea about an astronout that can breathe in out of space just by drinking Coca cola cause it contains oxygen and can help to breathe in a place without oxygen..So here it is the poster ..=)

         As you can see ,The poster is straight ahead to the main things we want to show which is "Without Coca cola ,We cannot breathe " so we describe it with an astronout carrying and also drinking it as a gas to stay alive in out of space ...Hope you guys get the idea of it =D

       And the second project,this is the video link on youtube if you want to check it out :  http://youtu.be/kAZl44FlWBI   and i also still got photos of me and  my group making this video,here it is , hehe..=D

Sorry for my tired face =D

       But because Me and Jacob are both the main person who's doin the video so i wanna talk about our fun process .. Well, we got the idea of our concept for the" Breathe through Coca Cola " video was so fast ,..It was probably because he's from screen media so it's his expertise anyway but i also helped him a bit how to make the video work because there's not a lot of things to work with inside the school ..

      So we finally decided the final idea which is .. There's gonna be 3 girls who's playin hide and seek and while there's one person looking for her friends hiding .. one of her friends is hiding at a very small place to show that she losing breathe inside it =P  and at the end .. some random hand just offering a Coca cola  bottle straight in front of her face and after she's drinking it ,she gets relieved cause she got oxygen from it .. =D We only made the video for 3 and a half hour .. Jacob was also the one who directed us three (Me,femi,tasha) and was the one who's making and editing the video .. and the video came out great cus of the effects he put in it  .. so we're so glad with how the video turns out =D  

 
     What i got from this team work is pretty much useful because i could try another things like acting and stuff like that that keeps me going to try many other thing besides fine art cause i think it will be useful if i could do many things and keep finding my hidden talent.=D

THANKS FOR READING IT ! =D

Analogical Thinking (Self portrait)

Hellow thereeeee... =D

                      

     Today ,I wanna share u guys 'bout my personal analogy but first of all, i want to explain u guys what it is..

      So ,what do i mean with Personal analogy is something that allow us to be imaginative by feeling or thinking that we're an object ,animal or different person.But it could be comparing  a thing to another thing ,for example .what's fear looks like and we just imagine it like a flower that dies because of a some kind of toxic fluid.
                                                             
     So,i want to tell u guys more about my perpective about personal analogy.. sometimes,i like to compare myself with some random stuff that describes me in the i see myself in person .and sometimes when i see some kind of metal i'd like to reflect that it's similar with me through my personality cause i'm not an achiever or worry bout the grades but i always do my best in everything that i do and that's probably more than enough for myself so i might think that i'm as strong as steel =D

  On Monday, There was a creative thinking assignment where i should draw something that describing me ..so i wanna show you what i made or i came up with..=P

           I know u guys might be confused by looking at it for once.. probably because all the objects that i've chosen to decribe me .. so i want to make it clear to you what are those meaning for.. =)

        Well, first of all ,I wanna describe that iguana on my shoulder.. 

                                          

Well ,when i was a little girl ,i had this big green iguana as a pet ..I've had so many random pets before such as flying squirels, iguana, hedgehogs,hamsters,and etc..But this one is quiet interesting for me until now,i never forget bout how this animal that i called as a pet is so lovely. 

                                       

        So, the similar things about me and iguana are adventurous and  .. i know that sometimes iguana could be wild or being sensitive/aggressive but it's all depends by the way we treat them just like me .. i have this trust issues towards everyone and if i don't trust or like someone ,i'll bite them just like what iguana does (kidding).. ahahha,probably i'll just keep my distance =D           and i really do think that this sweet animal is very loyal and a loving type because he(my old pall) was very sticked to me and liked to linger on my shoulder to express their love and that's the way i see myself which is as a very loyal person and i could genuinely love them (family and friends) from the bottom of my heart.hehe =) 

                                               

      

          And,second of all, i'd like to describe that cup noodle right there.. Well ,i describe cup noodle is a very instant food that can create something (noodle) delicious very quick.. and that's why i picked it ,cuz to me , I think i'm a very instant person cause whenever i got those hard challenges in life that's hard for me or i'm not good at,i always think this one line in my head which is  ,"Actually, I can" so no matter what i have to do for those crazy situations ,I'm the kind of person that doesn't really care about what other people's opinion and spontaniously just do what i have to do or what i can do and hope that what i did was right for me and comes out right . =) 

                                      

      Third one is my headphone ..Songs and music have two types of meaning to it ..how it could be a sad song or a happy song . cause whenever i'm sad ,sad songs can understand or explain how do i feel the way i feel and happy songs also can describe how happy i'm at the time so i really think that songs and music that comes out from that headphone based on a story of my life ..

                               

Where there's ups and downs in it but even if there comes the we were sad about something or someone ,we can still choose to cheer ourself like what happy songs do. =D

     I really learned a lot from this assignment especially when i got to reflect back on my past and my individual self ,it just gave me some emotions that i've never found so i'm grateful to get this experience and keep on reflect myself and be a much better individual one day =) 

HOPE U GUYS ENJOYED IT =D
