Apart from our discussion, we d
ecide to chose 'Explore The Future' as our main idea for this particular project.

This is the 2nd mind map relating to explore the future
After we have been consulting for few weeks, we are able to come out with our own report about our topic.



Next, after our topic being confirmed, we were told to produce our final in any media, for example posters, video, flash and so on. We decide to make a video to show our idea on how we explore and understand about what future is about.

...Below are part of our sketches in producing our final results...






Lastly, this is our video that we had shared in youtube as well. Enjoy and hope you all can understand the way future being explore since it cannot be estimate by anyone.

Random word/image association

In this exercise, we were asked to create "scary image/object" that will instill fear among people through out the ages.

The picture and words been given is "kitten"
During my progress, few words came to my mind that gave scary characteristics to a cat.
First, color - In often situations that people have stereotypes towards black cats. It usually give people a horror, scary images of a black cat. So in this case, color is part of the characteristic to make a scary images.

Second, weapon or accessory - people use weapon to kill. Even a phantom has its own weapon. Weapon like blades, swords are often use to describe killing, blood, etc.

Third, blood - This element would not run away when it is to show something that sacred people because most of the time, people afraid of blood and wounds.

Fourth, scars - Just like vampires or zombies, their body are full of scars.

The whole physical appearance of the cat would look something like the illustrations.

Mortar & Pestle

5 random things that lecturer want us to think about.
During this lesson, we are given a chance to think of something new from existed object.
Based on the key words given, this is what I can think of...
pestle can be use as a tools for exercise. Save money from buying exercising tools.

Mortar can be use to protect coconut. In some places, it has possibilities that animal eat the coconut. To ptotect from animal it can be cover by mortar. The pestle can be use to crack the coconut shell as well.

On the beach, It could be part of the tools to make sand castle. Put sand into the mortar to get the shape.

It can be a decoration as well.

Finally, it can be invent into music instruments. It might create new sound from it.

Juxtaposition

Juxtaposition mean 'the act of positioning close together'(side by side) by [source].

In the lecture, it also been explain by our lecturer about juxtaposition. It can simply be defined as placing two subject together or side by side to show their contrast or similarity. In creative processes, this method usually being rely on to create awareness or just to make the artwork looks better.
In the picture above, juxtaposition can be explain by the polar bear, penguin and igloo that placed together. It creates similarity among themselves.

While the picture below showing two girls with difference in their appearance. It create contrast either on the bikini girl or the woman holding the sandals.

Street Art

What came to your mind when someone say about street arts?
Most of the time people will think of vandalism, where people paint and spray on public properties. No matter what it was, it somehow still part of what we called as 'art'.

If we think it in different ways, it actually makes abandon buildings or walls look colourful.
Ignore graffiti and whatever came up in your mind about street art.
How about something like the pictures shown below?
Anything can be seems to impressed people in different ways depending on how we look upon that particular things. Everything have their own positive and negative that make it balance.
How people judge on it is different issue.
No matter what, I insists that without all this people trying their best to expressed thru art, life would be very dull and fade. There would be no colours exist.
If you travel to Italy, most of the students from their own arts academy or street artists using floor on the street as their medium to draw. From early morning, they can be seen sitting on the streets that crowded with people passing by. Most of the time, they draw until late night and once they done their artwork, they washed it away with water and start again drawing new things the next day on the floor.
They just doing what they think they want to do just to satisfy themselves.
It's worth for what they are doing... (who cares?)
