Final Project Sketch

Week 7: Scary Cat

This week class activity something like last class activity. We required to draw something about cat and also have to draw a scary object using the cat’s characteristics without showing the cat. The element must have to be indirect.

So this is what I’ve drawn:

Week 6: Anology

Class Activity: In this week our lecture asked us to choose two digit numbers and matched two digit numbers with two words from the column below:-

My number is 15,12,05

So, i get the word from my number:-
Flower Root
Flower Rock
Fly Root

After that, we should create a sentences from that word:-

1) The flower life from their root

2) Orchid's flower always need rock and charcoal to grows up

3) Artist and normal people life is like bird's fly and a root of tree

From this sentences, we create the image..

This week also, our class activities is write a short statement/poem that describe the concept of ‘LOVE’, ‘LIFE’, and ‘MAN or WOMAN’ to each picture.

Chillie
Concept : Love


Love is like a chillies. Although it's taste hot and spice but people still like to eat it..

Ice cream
Concept: Pain

Broken heart is like eating ice cream. although it seem like delicious to taste, but when we taste it, it will make our tooth pain

Week 5: Juxtaposition

for me,honestly.it's a new word i learn in class so back from class while i was on the net doing things i normally do.the word pop-up so i decided to google it what not

1. an act or instance of placing close together or side by side, esp. for comparison or contrast.

2. the state of being close together or side by side.

For my undestanding, juxtapostion is really usefull for creating any images or idea in developing something.

note for the pic:This is the image that consider juxtaposition too.

Similarity of the image is they are human, woman, etc.

Contrast & differences between them is the style they have.

note: the left picture show how the person really looks like where as the right shows the painting/art to potray their images.contrast from the real pic n the art.

note:both are living things and both need each other in order to survive in this world,the tree needs oxigen and human need carbon dioxide etc etc.

Week 4: Mind Mapping

A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea. Mind maps are used to generate, visualize, structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid to studying and organizing information, solving problems, making decisions, and writing.

The elements of a given mind map are arranged intuitively according to the importance of the concepts, and are classified into groupings, branches, or areas, with the goal of representing semantic or other connections between portions of information. Mind maps may also aid recall of existing memories.

By presenting ideas in a radial, graphical, non-linear manner, mind maps encourage a brainstorming approach to planning and organizational tasks. Though the branches of a mindmap represent hierarchical tree structures, their radial arrangement disrupts the prioritizing of concepts typically associated with hierarchies presented with more linear visual cues. This orientation towards brainstorming encourages users to enumerate and connect concepts without a tendency to begin within a particular conceptual framework.

The mind map can be contrasted with the similar idea of concept mapping. The former is based on radial hierarchies and tree structures denoting relationships with a central governing concept, whereas concept maps are based on connections between concepts in more diverse patterns.

-Mind maps are, by definition, a graphical method of taking notes.

creator of mind map:tony buzan

Tony Buzan (born 2 June 1942, English pronunciation: /ˈbuːzn̩/) is an author and educational consultant. He is a proponent of the techniques of Mind Mapping[1] and mental literacy. He claims to have worked with "corporate entities and businesses all over the world; academics; Olympic athletes; children of all ages; governments; and high profile individuals, in teaching them how to maximize the use of their brain power."[2]

Mind maps can be used for:

* problem solving

* outline/framework design

* anonymous collaboration

* marriage of words and visuals

* individual expression of creativity

* condensing material into a concise and memorable format

* team building or synergy creating activity

* enhancing work morale

power of mind map

-superior note taking method because it does not lead to a "semi-hypnotic trance" state

-mind map uses the full range of left and right human cortical skills

-balances the brain

Week 3: Novelty, Innovation, Invention and Creativity

Last Week, We have learn about what means of creativity. This week, we will learn about Novelty, Innovation, Invention and creativity.

NOVELTY

Wikipedia:

Novelty (derived from Latin word novus for "new") is the quality of being new. Although it may be said to have an objective dimension (e.g. a new style of art coming into being, such as abstract art or impressionism) it essentially exists in the subjective perceptions of individuals.
It also refers to something novel; that which is striking, original or unusual. The term can have pejorative sense and refer to a mere innovation.

nov·elty (näv′əl tē)
noun pl. novelties -·ties
1. the quality of being novel; newness; freshness
2. something new, fresh, or unusual; change; innovation
3. a small, often cheap, cleverly made article, usually for play or adornment: usually used in pl.

The specific appellation I would propose for this novelty is alexandrae, in honour of that Princess who, we may reasonably hope, is destined at some future time to be the Queen of these realms and their dependencies, of which Australia is by no means the most inconspicuous.
—The Journals of John McDouall Stuart

INNOVATION

What is an innovation? The best innovation definition compares innovation with invention. It doesn't always have to be brand new (like an invention must). The electric light bulb, the airplane, the automobile, the telephone, the phonograph are all inventions and innovations. Compact fluorescent light bulbs, the Concord, hybrid fuel cars, cell phones, and compact discs are also innovations that have had a strong impact on the market.

To really give a good innovation definition, you have to talk about the market. In this angle, the definition of innovation is any idea, product, or service, which is perceived by consumers as being new. There are different kinds of innovation that fit this definition of innovation.



Wikipedia: Innovation is a change in the thought process for doing something, or the useful application of new inventions or discoveries.[1] It may refer to an incremental emergent or radical and revolutionary changes in thinking, products, processes, or organizations. Following Schumpeter (1934), contributors to the scholarly literature on innovation typically distinguish between invention, an idea made manifest, and innovation, ideas applied successfully in practice. In many fields, such as the arts, economics and government policy, something new must be substantially different to be innovative. In economics the change must increase value, customer value, or producer value. The goal of innovation is positive change, to make someone or something better. Innovation leading to increased productivity is the fundamental source of increasing wealth in an economy.

Innovation is an important topic in the study of economics, business, entrepreneurship, design, technology, sociology, and engineering. Colloquially, the word "innovation" is often synonymous with the output of the process. However, economists tend to focus on the process itself, from the origination of an idea to its transformation into something useful, to its implementation; and on the system within which the process of innovation unfolds. Since innovation is also considered a major driver of the economy, especially when it leads to new product categories or increasing productivity, the factors that lead to innovation are also considered to be critical to policy makers. In particular, followers of innovation economics stress using public policy to spur innovation and growth.

“Innovation is the way of transforming the resources of an enterprise through the creativity of people into new resources and wealth” (Paul Schumann)

For my understanding, innovation is mean ability to create something new of creativity thinking and studies.

INVENTION

Wikipedia: An invention is a new composition, device, or process. An invention may be derived from a pre-existing model or idea, or it could be independently conceived in which case it may be a radical breakthrough. In addition, there is cultural invention, which is an innovative set of useful social behaviors adopted by people and passed on to others.[1] Inventions often extend the boundaries of human knowledge or experience. An invention that is novel and not obvious to others skilled in the same field may be able to obtain the legal protection of a patent.

For me, Invention means the act of finding out or inventing; contrivance or construction of that which has not before existed; as, the invention of logarithms; the invention of the art of printing.

Week 2: Why Creative ?

Today is first lecturer section for creative studies class. We learn what is mean for Creativity ? what's that ? how to be creative ? Below i will show what i have learn for this week. :)

Picture Source: http://www.online-photoshoptutorials.com

From wikipedia, Creativity is the ability to generate innovative ideas and manifest them from thought into reality. The process involves original thinking and then producing.

The process of creation was historically reserved for deities creating "from nothing" in Creationism and other creation myths. Over time, the term creativitycame to include human innovation, especially in art and science and led to the emergence of the creative class.

In other source, Creativity also defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others.

For me, Creativity means the ability to think imaginatively and originally

We make it easier:

Ability + Imagination + originally = Creativity

How do we want to be creative?

Look at artwork in galleries and museums. Read books and magazines. Use your senses and experience stimulates your memory and imagination.

Develop your skills.
- Skills build confidence so work to improve your techniques.

Make creative thinking a part of your daily life.
- Ask question. Vary routines. Do the unexpected. You feel more mentally alert.

Smash creative blocks.
- Change the problem or sneak up on it from a different direction. Try something fresh – a new way with an old theme.
