Idea In Context Week 5

Title: Free choice title.

So first I choice a liar that lie to girl as my direction and I found Casanova.

Casanova: A man who is amorously and gallantly attentive to women.

Con-artist/ con-man: They steal from you by sneaking in though emotions instead of through your window. Deception and deceit.

1. Money gone

2. Heart broken

3. Time wasted

After a discussion, it lead me to Greed.

So, I find many greed quote and proverbs and create my own one.

All your needs is just you want.
Fraud is the daughter of greed.
Earth provide enough to satisfy even man's need, but not every man's greed.
We are all born brave, trusting and greedy and must all of us remain greedy.
Greed is a fat demon with a small mouth and whatever you feed it is never enough.
Lord, if I can't have want what I want, let me want what I have.
Sometimes people who want more than they can handle end up losing everything together.
We close our eyes for what we don't want to see, just to enjoy the lies we love to hear.
He who is greedy is always in want.
Greed is bottomless pit.
Big mouthful often choke.
Greed is eternal.

The below is quotes that I created myself.

Deceit friends with greed.
There are bottomless in everything.
Nature is too little for greed.
Greedy is always poor.

------------------------------------------------

The above is copy writing, and the visual, I used back my own Chinese culture fortune teller

about face, hand and mole.

The charaterities of greedy:

The eyes of greedy look like monkey eyes.

The nose is sharp just like eagle nose,

while the bottom of the face have more meat.

The mouth of greedy is like a boat that turned upside down.

Mole will be between the mouth and the nose, while the other will be at the last of the eyebrows.

The ears will big and round to show that it have bottomless in money but spend alot too.

Final outcome.

After a discussion, corruption come out from greed. There are many types of corruption.

The basic races corruption are:

1. Malay - Policeman

2. Chinese - Businessman

3. India - Hindraf

according to Malaysia

Google shows Malaysia is the most champion in corruption.

------------------------------------------------

Policeman corruption are quite many in Malaysia. They will get or asked for coffee money after they saw you make mistake on the road.

Why corrupt? Policeman can earn more extra cash money, while the other party can get away from crime.

Influence? partner influence, follow the trends and environment.

Solution - Government, self- discipline and rules.

http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/malaysians-see-police-as-most-corrupt-ti-finds

The following show that Malaysia police is counted as the most corrupt among others.

Greed

------------------------------------------------

Businessman corruption can be seen among Malaysian Chinese.

Problem of business corruption - damage reputation, lost business, jail sentence.

According to news and articles, almost 50% lost business to competitor who pay bribe.

And a third felt corruption getting worse.

Disadvantage - distort market, create unfair competitor.

Why corrupt? To get more business and earn sales, to earn benefits.

The above is articles about Malaysia business corruption articles.

Greed

Hindraf

HINDRAF or Hindu Rights Action Force ( Malay: Barisan Bertindak Hak-Hak Hindu) with its slogan of People's Power began as a coalition of 30 Hindu non-governmental organisations committed to the preservation of Hindu community rights and heritage in a multiracial Malaysia. HINDRAF has made a major impact to the political landscape of Malaysia in staging the 2007 HINDRAF rally. In late 2007, several prominent members of the HINDRAF were arrested, some on charges of sedition; following an enormous rally organised by HINDRAF in November. The charges were dismissed by the courts. Five people have since been detained without trial under the Internal Security Act. The group has over the last two years developed a broader political program to preserve and to push for equal rights and opportunities for the minority Indians. It has been successful in continuing to focus attention on the racist aspects of the Malaysian Government policies.

The Visual, first i taught of using 3 wise monkeys to represent my work.

Together they embody the proverbial principle to "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil".

The three monkeys are Mizaru, covering his eyes, who sees no evil;

Kikazaru, covering his ears, who hears no evil;

Iwazaru, covering his mouth, who speaks no evil.

The first monkey who cover its eye, I used it to represent policeman.

After paid, he will no see any crime anymore.

( turn blind) - turn away, see nothing, money talks.

The second monkey who cover its ear, I used it to represent businessman.

After benefits, he will hear nothing anymore.

(ear closed) - not hearing anything, money talks.

The third monkey who cover its mouth, I used it to represent India.

After benefits, he keeps he mouth shut no voice up.

(mouth shut) - money covering.

------------------------------------------------

Turn blind -

Animal represent - bats and mole

They live in the dark so they have poor vision, they are not blind.

Sentence: Because we paid for the fault, so they cover up their eye and see nothing,

Ear closed -

Idea In Context - Apply 6 Thinking Hats

White Hat:
- http://artistic-yanni.blogspot.com/2013/04/idea-in-context-week-3.html#links

Red Hat
- As a designer I think that street art is very beautiful and nice. It can show out own feeling and style. It also can make own name go viral. But some .... are not, i look at them as vandalism, vandalism is destroy and damage.
- Graffiti such as quick “tags” and poorly done messages like “mark was here” and “Jeff 4 Kate” for example are pointless.

Street Art

Vandalism

Yellow Hat:

- Graffiti is a true form of art that is recognized as having a profound positive effect on many different lifestyles. Graffiti, if done right can be used in many different positive ways. These include brightening otherwise dull areas of space, and advertising new products in an exciting method.

- It gives the opportunity to express self. Ideas and feelings can be shown through the medium of art. A wall can become a canvas in which art can be made. The use of the urban landscape, as a canvas is always a constant and will continue to provide with new and challenging ways in which to produce work.

Black Hat:

- I think it is lame that someone write their name all over and over again in public space.

- As a designer, I think that street art is good for us. It can bring meaningful message to everyone and even beautiful and nice art go viral to everybody.

Green Hat:

- Street Art should go viral to all over the world. It is good, it can influence your lifestyle. Imaging meaningful Street art everyday in your lifestyle will make you fresh everyday.

Idea In Context Week 4

6 Thinking Hats

White Hat:
With this thinking hat you focus on the data available. Look at the information you have, and see what you can learn from it. Look for gaps in your knowledge, and either try to fill them or take account of them.
This is where you analyze past trends, and try to extrapolate from historical data.
Red Hat:
'Wearing' the red hat, you look at problems using intuition, gut reaction, and emotion. Also try to think how other people will react emotionally. Try to understand the responses of people who do not fully know your reasoning.

Yellow Hat:
The yellow hat helps you to think positively. It is the optimistic viewpoint that helps you to see all the benefits of the decision and the value in it. Yellow Hat thinking helps you to keep going when everything looks gloomy and difficult.

Black Hat:
Using black hat thinking, look at all the bad points of the decision. Look at it cautiously and defensively. Try to see why it might not work. This is important because it highlights the weak points in a plan. It allows you to eliminate them, alter them, or prepare contingency plans to counter them.
Black Hat thinking helps to make your plans 'tougher' and more resilient. It can also help you to spot fatal flaws and risks before you embark on a course of action. Black Hat thinking is one of the real benefits of this technique, as many successful people get so used to thinking positively that often they cannot see problems in advance. This leaves them under-prepared for difficulties.

Green Hat:
The Green Hat stands for creativity. This is where you can develop creative solutions to a problem. It is a freewheeling way of thinking, in which there is little criticism of ideas. A whole range of creativity tools can help you here.

Blue Hat:
The Blue Hat stands for process control. This is the hat worn by people chairing meetings. When running into difficulties because ideas are running dry, they may direct activity into Green Hat thinking. When contingency plans are needed, they will ask for Black Hat thinking, etc.

Multiple Intelligent

Logical-mathematical

This area has to do with logic, abstractions, reasoning and numbers and critical thinking. This also has to do with having the capacity to understand the underlying principles of some kind of causal system. Logical reasoning is closely linked to fluid intelligence and to general intelligence (g factor).

Spatial

This area deals with spatial judgment and the ability to visualize with the mind's eye. Spatial ability is one of the three factors beneath g in the hierarchical model of intelligence.

Linguistic

People with high verbal-linguistic intelligence display a facility with words and languages. They are typically good at reading, writing, telling stories and memorizing words along with dates. Verbal ability is one of the most g-loaded abilities. This type of intelligence is associated with the Verbal IQ in WAIS-III.

Bodily-kinesthetic

People who have bodily-kinesthetic intelligence should learn better by involving muscular movement (e.g. getting up and moving around into the learning experience), and be generally good at physical activities such as sports, dance, acting, and making things.

Gardner believes that careers that suit those with this intelligence include: athletes, pilots, dancers, musicians, actors, surgeons, builders, police officers, and soldiers. Although these careers can be duplicated through virtual simulation, they will not produce the actual physical learning that is needed in this intelligence.

Musical

This area has to do with sensitivity to sounds, rhythms, tones, and music. People with a high musical intelligence normally have good pitch and may even have absolute pitch, and are able to sing, play musical instruments, and compose music. Since there is a strong auditory component to this intelligence, those who are strongest in it may learn best via lecture. They will sometimes use songs or rhythms to learn. They have sensitivity to rhythm, pitch, meter, tone, melody or timbre.

Interpersonal

This area has to do with interaction with others. In theory, individuals who have high interpersonal intelligence are characterized by their sensitivity to others' moods, feelings, temperaments and motivations, and their ability to cooperate in order to work as part of a group. According to Gardner in How Are Kids Smart: Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom, "Inter- and Intra- personal intelligence is often misunderstood with being extroverted or liking other people..." Those with this intelligence communicate effectively and empathize easily with others, and may be either leaders or followers. They typically learn best by working with others and often enjoy discussion and debate.

Gardner believes that careers that suit those with this intelligence include sales, politicians, managers, teachers, counselors and social workers.

Intrapersonal

This area has to do with introspective and self-reflective capacities. This refers to having a deep understanding of the self; what your strengths/ weaknesses are, what makes you unique, being able to predict your own reactions/emotions.

Naturalistic

This area has to do with nurturing and relating information to one’s natural surroundings. Examples include classifying natural forms such as animal and plant species and rocks and mountain types. This ability was clearly of value in our evolutionary past as hunters, gatherers, and farmers; it continues to be central in such roles as botanist or chef.

Existential

Some proponents of multiple intelligence theory proposed spiritual or religious intelligence as a possible additional type. Gardner did not want to commit to a spiritual intelligence, but suggested that an "existential" intelligence may be a useful construct. The hypothesis of an existential intelligence has been further explored by educational researchers.

Idea In Context - Week 3

Street Art

What is Street Art?

Street art is art, specifically visual art, developed in public spaces — that is, "in the streets" — though the term usually refers to unsanctioned art, as opposed to government sponsored initiatives. The term can include traditional graffiti artwork, sculpture, stencil graffiti, sticker art, wheatpasting andstreet poster art, video projection, art intervention, guerrilla art, and street installations. Typically, the term street art or the more specific post-graffiti is used to distinguish contemporary public-space artwork from territorial graffiti, vandalism, and corporate art.

Artists have challenged art by situating it in non-art contexts. ‘Street’ artists do not aspire to change the definition of an artwork, but rather to question the existing environment with its own language. They attempt to have their work communicate with everyday people about socially relevant themes in ways that are informed by esthetic values without being imprisoned by them. John Fekner defines street art as "all art on the street that’s not graffiti".

Street Art Technique?

Whereas traditional graffiti artists have primarily used free-hand aerosol paints to produce their works, "street art" encompasses many other media and techniques, including: LED art, mosaic tiling, murals, stencil art, sticker art, "Lock On" street sculptures, street installations, wheatpasting,woodblocking, video projection, and yarn bombing. New media forms of graffiti, such as projection onto large city buildings, are an increasingly popular tool for street artists—and the availability of cheap hardware and software allows street artists to become more competitive with corporate advertisements. Much like open source software, artists are able to create art for the public realm from their personal computers, similarly creating things for free which compete with wealthy companies making things for profit.

Traditional graffiti also has increasingly been adopted as a method for advertising; its trajectory has even in some cases led its artists to work on contract as graphic artists for corporations. Nevertheless, street art is a label often adopted by artists who wish to keep their work unaffiliated and strongly political. Street artists are those whose work is still largely done without official approval in public areas.

For these reasons street art is sometimes considered "post-graffiti" and sometimes even "neo-graffiti." Street art can be found around the world and street artists often travel to other countries foreign to them so they can spread their designs.

Motivation of street art?

Art is not just limited to paintings on canvas. It can be done anywhere, even in public places such as walls and streets. Street art, as people call it, are usually unsanctioned, sometimes unfairly considered as vandalism. Street artists, however, do not view it as vandalism but rather as an alternative form of art.

Most of the paintings of street artists are expressions of how they feel toward society. In fact, activism and subversion are prevalent themes in street art. For many, their paintings are also their way of reaching out to the public regarding social aspects such as environmentalism, culture jamming, individualism, racism, and value reclamation. For some artists, they find street art a way to help the city by covering up what they consider as graffiti and vandalism. Then there are others who simply want exposure and recognition of their artistic talents. Indeed, street art reaches a broader audience than more conventional means of showcasing artistic works.

Controversy on street art:

Some people consider street art a crime; others consider it a form of art. It is a borderline issue. Street artists may be charged with vandalism, malicious mischief, intentional destruction of property, criminal trespass, or antisocial behavior and there different legal restrictions depending on whether it’s private or public property. In some cities, it is unlawful for landowners to allow any graffiti on their property if it’s visible from any other public or private property. A 2012 research paper from Hacettepe University tried to define street art as a type of crime, then examined it using criminological perspective with criminological and deviance theories, in order to understand and explain it better using an example

Idea In Context - Week 2

In now days, we all live in a technology world.

According to a New York Times article this January, the average kid, ages 8-18, spends over 7 ½ hours a day using technology gadgets equaling 2 ½ hours of music, almost 5 hours of tv and movies, three hours of internet and video games, and just 38 minutes of old fashioned reading according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, which adds up to 75 hours a week! These statistics are not just mere numbers; they are a reflection of the way our society is heading. There is a direct correlation of amount of hours spent with gadgets and obesity, poor grades, impatience, violence, and a loss of family interest.

This is one of the issues that kids now day overspend time on electronic device.

Obesity

The role of technology in childhood obesity is not just a matter of speculation. More than 40 studies have been conducted on the matter, and many indicate that the availability of technology contributes to a sedentary lifestyle and weight gain in children. A Canadian study conducted in 2003 and published in the "International Journal of Obesity" linked 7- to 11-year-olds' television and computer use to a significantly increased risk to being overweight or obese. The study found that children who spent 3 or more hours a day in front of technology had between a 17- and 44-percent increase of risk of being overweight, or a 10- to 61-percent increase risk in obesity.
