Juxtaposition can be classified to metaphor, simile ans analogy. Logical mind map is to apply concept to a project. while affective analogy is to describe something using animal or image. Juxtaposition is stimulation of creativity in problem solving design by confronting 2 unrelated concept or object to be solved

i learn that in reality, when a task of connecting unrelated object to product a design by our boss, it is must easier and clearer to write down the subject required and make it into a sentence before creating your design.

week5 experience

through a lot of influence of tv shows and magazine today, people tend to have a mindset that beautiful women MUST be thin. me myself were also i of them. that view changed when i saw the 1st plus size model from a tv series American Next Top Model.

by using 3 random words selected, we were asked to create 3 ideas with creativity of mortal and pestle that can be used 1000 years later from now.

1)game
to throw the pestle from a distant into the mortal as a sport
2) discipline
to discipline the student who did wrong by putting the mortar on top of the student head, and the pestle is used to hit the mortar.

3)beach
to use as an entertainment on the beach with the mortar as a sit to the master while the pestle is for the dog to fetch.

week5-- juxtaposition

this week i learned a new word, juxtaposition. i was totally confuse about it because it looks like a scientific word which i hated the most. through teacher's explanation i finally get to know it means comparison of 2 variable or the arrangement of 2 or more ideas.

Juxtaposition can also mean contrast between 2 object that oppose 1 another. For example, 2 random object that move in parallel is a technique intended to stimulate creativity. It is useful to develop storyline or character by using opposition of emotion.

We also learn that in order to survive we can not work alone. To inspire people to make a change, we can find a group of people that agree with our point of view.

week 4 -- Mind Map of Myself

This is the mind map i draw to briefly discribe myself.

week4-- mind mapping

this week study is about creative thinking with mind mapping technique. creative thinking can be classified into 2 categories, diverging (brainstorming and looking for alternative) -expanding the play field, and converging (thinking all the information and possibilities and turn it to a solution) - narrowing the play field. most people possess only 1 type of creative thinking but not both. psychologist state that a person with high IQ doesn't mean that he is a creative person.http://www.google.com.my/imglanding?q=mind%20mapping&imgurl=http://resourcebank.sitc.co.uk/

We also learn that mind mapping improve creativity and for easy recall, show keywords, save time, concentrate real issue, generate and brainstorming ideas. Creative thinking can be separated into logical mind mapping ( stereotypes- put words and image directly related to the central subject through links) and associated mind mapping ( generate random words and links that have no connection).

By the definition above, i also learn that how people can be categories into a stereotype person. that is when a person have a public belief about specific social group or type of individual. they conventional, formulaic, over simplified the conception, opinion or images.
