2nd exercise for the juxtaposition. We have to use the analogy to describe "love" or "life" or "happiness" or "man" or "woman" or "pain" by using the mind map method. We have to choose 7 pictures and this is my works.
Part7: Juxtaposition
The juxtapositon. Weird, but that's how we derived a new ideas by placing two words together and change everything about it by a few methods that's so interesting.
It could be defined as:
Juxtaposition can be defined as placing two variable, side by side and their contrast or similarity are shown through comparison. Many creative processes rely on juxtaposition. By juxtaposing two objects or words next to each other, human brain will automatically associate or transfer meaning. Usually ‘turning’ something familiar to something less familiar or vice-versa.
(taken from the lecture notes)
Up there is the exercise in our class about juxtaposition. The exercise were so much fun and it is almost like we have no class at all.
1) We have to copy all the words shown in the slide and make it into 2 columns.
2) Put numbers to each words
3) Think 3 sets of 2 numbers between 0 to 99
4) Pair each words in the column according to the number that we've chose
5) Make a sentence according to the words that we have paired.
6) Visualize the sentence in our own drawing
7) Make the words that we have paired to become one word.
8) Draw something new according to that new word!
And thats how we had so much fun!
Another exercise that we have done was about create a poem according to the words that the lecturer gave to us. In the class, he gave us the word "chilli" and he asked us to create a romantic poem based on that words.
So, i used the creative method thinking that is "mind mapping" and got this ideas!
*yes the handwriting are a bit off... i was in a hurry!*
And from that mind map, i easily get this poem for my lover by describing him symbolically by using the chilli~
And that's it. enough for now! :)
Part 6: Associated mind map
Associated mind map. Definitely a new different way of creating new idea and a new thing. To make an associated mind map, think of a word as the title and expand it with another words that got nothing to do with it. Just write what appears in your mind and that's how you get an associated mind map.
That's the exercise in our class regarding to the associated mind map. We have to choose 3 words from the associated mind map *which we still don't have it in the mmls, that's why i cant upload the picture of that mind map and put it here* and we have to creatively change the function of the mortar and pestle fir the future according to the words that we have chose.
In the mind map;
1) The mortar and pestle can be used as a "weapon". They can be used to shoot people, hit people and the best of all, zoom in to people! what a great and dangerous weapon. :p
2) The mortar and pestle also can also become a tool to worship the "devil".... who knows this thing could happen right? this is the future that we cant see as nowadays mortar and pestle were used to make sambal belacan... :D
3) The mortar and pestle are the symbol of beauty in the future. When a girl wins a beauty paegant, the mortar and peslte will be used as the crown to pronounce that she is "beautiful"~! *I personally think this is as a joke but who knows? maybe in the future... that's what happen in the beauty field... :p*

SURELY IT IS SURREALISM!~
Creative enough.. it was cute, catchy, and i understand the connection between the whole thing in the video with the lyrics. It is totally random but still interesting and unique. That's why i call it creative.

I believe the video designer applying the surrealism art style to the video.
" It was an artistic movement that brought together artists, thinkers and researchers in hunt of sense of expression of the unconscious. They were searching for the definition of new aesthetic, new humankind and a new social order. Surrealists had their forerunners in Italian Metaphysical Painters (Giorgio de Chirico) in early 1910's. As the artistic movement, Surrealism came into being after the French poet Andre Breton 1924 published the first Manifeste du surrealisme. In this book Breton suggested that rational thought was repressive to the powers of creativity and imagination and thus inimical to artistic expression. An admirer of Sigmund Freud and his concept of the subconscious, Breton felt that contact with this hidden part of the mind could produce poetic truth." taken from - http://www.huntfor.com/arthistory/C20th/surrealism.htm

Part 4: Novelty, Creativity, Innovation and Invention
TO THE INFINITY, AND BEYOND!!!!
( brilliant ideas are often closer than what you think)
In the Week 3rd class, we were talking about novelty, creativity, innovation and invention. I was again, being exposed to another different world where i have not able to break through to it before. However, so far.. i do understand that a CREATIVE person, generates new ideas. They are the problem solver, where they think of some global issues or problems and they are able to create a new inventions to solve the problems. They are the producer. Their ideas help others. Production on the other hand, must have values and it supposed to be unique. Pixar are the first one who produce 3D animation that is the Toy Story 1 and before that, no one have ever valued 3D animation. No one have ever think about to create a 3D animation until Pixar succeed to make it. And so do like the rap music, where now it is becoming most of the global music.
Creativity, is a process of generating new ideas and new things. It is not happening only in people's head but it is the formation and interaction between many people. It involves the audiences and the person who had the idea. The Rome wasnt built in one day... that's how we can say about creative stuffs. Being creative is such a subjective matters and not everyone can really become one. Some people do have the idea but they cant think out of the box. Hey, creativity involve many processes, where many ideas are combined and become one. in the process, peoples got involve within the interactions and communications. They give options, responses, ideas, and appreciation. It is important to grab the key of creativity process that is, clear, simple and functional. (click on the video link down there, you will see how creativity solve a problem. :)
The creativity process involve this another factor called NOVELTY. What is novelty? In the lecture notes, Novelty is the quality of being new. It goes to the roots of the problems where the problems are well defined and well researched. It has the originality value. I believe, novelty is a moral value in a creation or production that has this genuine quality. It maybe a creation or just an invention but as long as it is genuine, it has that novelty value. Look at the right side picture where we can see this man holding an umberella and this invention has been innovate to be multifunction. An umberella is not only to prevent oneselves from getting wet under the rain but the rain water are collected and being processed along the tube to become drinking water. Creative? Sure... Innovative? YES. No one has ever think to create something like this before. Thus, this creation has its own value. Genuine is not a decisive feature of creative work and novelty in creativity is always based on what has been created before. An innovation are usually comes when a creation can be improved to be something better. People always want something new, something better. From that wants, innovation process were born. Some creation cant fulfill some needs and wants... that's where the innovation process takes place. Human's brain has many answers from many questions. And this is where this creative and innovative people creating or inventing a solution to all the questions.
------>
The creativity, novelty, and innovation are the foundation of an invention. Invention is a creation. It could be anything. A design. Design of something that solving problems. The product of creativity, novelty and innovation process. Everything happens from a question and this question has the answers. That is why invention exists. To answer the needs that follows together with the creativity, novelty and innovation phase.

Part 3: LESSON 1 Friend's Creative Image
Owh.. it was a mistake. I found out that I should draw or edit a creative picture of a friend. Not take his picture and uploaded it. hmmmm... so, i edit this picture of my friend and change it to be a novel cover. And when i look at this picture, i feel like i want to write a novel with this "selekeh" title.. haha :)
Subject : Shah Hafiz
P/s : thank you for becoming my subject!~ ^^
Reflection : Editing pictures is a very fun way to express what's going on inside your mind. I chose the novel atmosphere for this picture because i see this picture is very nostalgic and contains a lot of questions inside. It is very scenery and unique. So i change the whole reality into a novel cover.
