week4-24/02/2009

This week, we learn about mind mapping that we usually will learn from our DF class also. I think most of us will so scare when hear this word.

And what we need to do is create a mind map that present our evil site.



This is my evil site. As you can see, there is a evil that represent me in the middle, and i have make my evil tail to link the my evil site, which is lazy, hot temper, hate, careless and emotional.

That is me actually. I'm hot temper, i can't ever wait too long time for someone or ever doing something, all thing should be done in a fast way. I'm a lazy person also. Same as many friend, we are lazy on our work and assignment, by the way, we also scare we can;t finish and get barred from MMU and can't graduate. I'm a careless person also. I will forget where the place i keep my thing and always need to by a new. Sometime i hate walking also. So i get a car license. I speed when the road is out of car, and i know it is danger also. I will so easy get injured. My mother always say that i 'didn't bring eyes while walking'.

Yup, that is about my evil site.

week 3 - Share of this week...

The thing i would like to share is the Strange Buildings of the World.

The Basket Building (Ohio, United States)

The Longaberger Basket Company building in Newark, Ohio might just be a strangest office building in the world. The 180,000-square-foot building, a replica of the company's famous market basket, cost $30 million and took two years to complete. Many experts tried to persuade Dave Longaberger to alter his plans, but he wanted an exact replica of the real thing.



Ripley's Building (Ontario, Canada)



Fuji television building (Tokyo, Japan)



Cubic Houses (Rotterdam, Netherlands)

The original idea of these cubic houses came about in the 1970s. Piet Blom has developed a couple of these cubic houses that were built in Helmond.
The city of Rotterdam asked him to design housing on top of a pedestrian bridge and he decided to use the cubic houses idea. The concept behind these houses is that he tries to create a forest by each cube representing an abstract tree; therefore the whole village becomes a forest.



Pickle Barrel House (Grand Marais, Michigan, United States)



Kansas City Public Library (Missouri, United States)

This project, located in the heart of Kansas City, represents one of the pioneer projects behind the revitalization of downtown.
The people of Kansas City were asked to help pick highly influential books that represent Kansas City. Those titles were included as 'bookbindings' in the innovative design of the parking garage exterior, to inspire people to utilize the downtown Central Library.



Wonderworks (Pigeon Forge, TN, United States)

week3-Bill Gate

We are require to draw something that represent Bill Gate or Mr. Google.



Here is the image that I had done. A Microsoft logo with a lot of money as the background. The reason I do that because Bill Gate is the person who create Microsoft, and he had earn many money.

week3-17/02/2009

Today, we have learn something new. Other than creativity, there still have innovation, invention and novelty.

Innovation, it can be define as a creation a new device or process, resulting from study and experimentation. It mean u create something new in the mind or you introducing something new to the audience. It is just will appear in your mind. Just like a proposal, before you process your work, you must have the basic and starting idea first. Or you changing the lousy product and created a brand new product to improve it.

Invention, it mean the act of inventing. It basically is the step after innovation. After you have the idea of the product in your mind, you create the real product.

Novelty, it basically is from the word novel. It mean the originality by virtue of being new and surprising, a small inexpensive mass-product article or cheap showy jewelry or ornament on clothing. It like you created something that human normally won't created and it is acceptable from the audience. It surprising everyone.

week3-Avatar...

In this week(3), we need to do some exercises about a person's avatar.

First, we need to ask our partner 10 questions so that we can know more about he/she. Based on those questions, we need to draw a image that represent that person.

I have find my partner, Lee Mei Jin. We have come out the 10 question and our own answer. Which is :
1. What is your hobby? Sleeping.
2. How old are you? 19 years old.
3. Your hair is long or short? Long.
4. What is your horoscope? Pieces.
5. What is your height? 152cm.
6. What is your favorite color? White.
7. What is the thing you most scare? Insect.
8. What is your favorite food? Fish.
9. What is your characteristic? Helpful.
10. What is your daily transportation? Walking.

At the end, she had draw out the avatar that represent me. Which is Polar Bear. I quite like it. What she say is, Polar Bear is in white color which i most like. And it usually sleep many and like to catch fish to eat. And Polar Bear is a very helpful animal. It will help each when they in trouble. And a normal Polar Bear, when it stand up, the height is almost same with me so. And finally is Polar Bear usually walk on the ice.

week1-Introduction to Creative Studies...

Creative studies? What is my expectations from the class?

It is very easy to know what i need. As a student, the most basic in the class is the studies environment. First, it must be always in the relax and not serious mode. If not, we all will feel stress and tension when listening lecturer teacher. And lecturer should always have interaction with us like asking some question.

Then, is about the subject. Creative studies, so, it can't be studying just like normal, it should be creative. Like let us have time to do some outdoor activities, games, group work, trip and so on.

A trip that going to some factory so that we know more about the progress or the function of the factory that we may can get some knowledge from them.

Lastly, and the most important is delivering the assignment. What i expect is my lecturer will delivered it to us clearly and easy to understanding. And always showing us some references or sample so that we won't get confuse or do it in the wrong way.

week 2 - Share of this week...

The thing that i wish to share with you all is typography. Those word is not done manual but is naturally.

week2-10/02/2009

Today, we need to explain what is creative and creativity is.

Based on my understanding, creative can be an adjective and also noun. It mean to produce or bring about something, having the quality of something created rather than imitated and to promoting construction or creation. While creativity is the power to create, the quality of being creative, the ability to create.

There is always come with the creativity before u created something. Why i say that so? Before you created something, you must have the power of creativity to push you to have the creative to create something.

For example, i wish i can create a simple and nice blog. In my mind. my creativity power will show out something in my mind. I need to do some survey so that i know what is the latest template. After some survey, i know that those template are just too boring to be use. So, here come my creative idea. i will do some sketch, and use specific software to do. At the end, i have done with my creative design. A very simple and nice template. (Just an example, so don't have any real template appear.)
