27th of October, 2010 - Catching Up Deadlines

I have nothing to share with everyone today
since I'm trying to catch up with the
deadlines of my assignments.
Believe it or not I have to finish 5 assignments
by Friday and thank goodness I'm finished with one
and almost done with one and half done with another one.

However, I do appreciate your support
although I am not oh so much of a blogger.
You can check out my blog post list
if you just scroll down and look on the right
side of my blog. I've posted a lot so go ahead
and read whatever that catches your eyes.

That's All For Now!
Thank You For Visiting Me!

Yesterday's Class: Chapter 2 - History & Philosophy of Design

Gomenasai *sobs*
I was suppose to post this last night
but last night the Internet was being a bitch.
It seems that every night there's no internet.
A friend of mine also told me that she
doesn't have internet every night.
I am soooo going to complain
at the Digi Centre
if this goes on.

Okay so yesterday was
Visual Communication in Design class.
We learned Chapter 2 yesterday
which was History & Philosophy of Design.
This chapter mainly talks about
how visual communication development
from prehistoric period to today.

There are four topics in this chapter:
1. History of Visual
2. Theoretical Overview
3. Gestalt Principles
4. Gestalt Application

What interest me the most
was the 21 Century Movement
which is a subtopic of History of Visual.
In this subtopic,
it introduce us about a lot of things.

For example:
:Cubism:
French art critic Louis Vauxcelles
first used the term "cubism",
or "bizarre cubiques",
in 1908 after seeing a picture by Braque.
He described it as "full of little cubes",
after which the term quickly gained wide use
although the two creators did not initially adopt it.
Art historian Ernst Gombrich
described cubism as
"the most radical attempt to stamp out ambiguity
and to enforce one reading
of the picture—that of a man-made construction,
a coloured canvas."

:Dadaism:
According to its proponents,
Dada was not art,
it was "anti-art".
Everything for which art stood,
Dada represented the opposite.
Where art was concerned with traditional aesthetics,
Dada ignored aesthetics.
If art was to appeal to sensibilities,
Dada was intended to offend.
Through their rejection of
traditional culture and aesthetics,
the Dadaists hoped
to destroy traditional culture and aesthetics.
But to me I think that dadaism
is something like collage
where you cut and paste pictures.

:Expressionism:
A cultural movement,
initially in poetry and painting,
originating in Germany at the start of the 20th century.
Its typical trait is to present the world
under an utterly subjective perspective,
violently distorting it to obtain an emotional effect
and vividly transmit personal moods and ideas.
Expressionist artists sought to express
the meaning of "being alive"and
emotional experience rather than physical reality
+Click here to read more about it+


There are more actually
such as futurism, surrealism,
photography and the modern movement.
It was really interesting but
some of it were hard to understand
because in our class we don't have
a whiteboard NOR a LCD!!
Lots of people have been complaining
including myself DX

I would prefer the lecturers
use whiteboards because
when explaining art,
you can't just show pictures and craps
you'll also have to show some movement
of how the art works.
I sympathize the lecturers
because some of them have trouble
teaching Mathematics
(I heard)

You know if they held a debate
competition regarding this matter
I would sooooo enter and win it!
harharhar
...sigh...
now I remember the time
when I was a debater
...damn...


That's All For Now :D
Thanks For Staying!

Dresses


I'm beginning to want
to wear dresses
and it feels
...weird...
but satisfying :D

I'm always known to
be one of those tomboys
who hangs out with guys
instead of girls
and who has a boy complex.
Hitting guys, arm wrestling,
guy 'talk' and such.
But now,
I don't do those things anymore.
It seems that
I'm more interested in arts
if you know what I mean.
I guess that's what it means by
'people change'

But I know one thing
that hasn't changed
MAKEUP
I still don't really like
wearing makeup.
Having it once in a while
like during a dinner party
is fine but NOT EVERY DAY
If you've read last years post
I mentioned about make up
and why it is bad.
Go ahead and read it :3

So now the feeling of wanting
to wear a dress is
starting to grow and grow
and coming much more often
to me
I would be like
"I want to wear a dress to college"
my mum was like
"Up to you"
Translation : "Just wear it if you want"
hahahaha

My sister bought me
two dresses
one purple and one white
So now I have black, purple, white dresses
hahahaha

Thank You For The Visit!
